Area dimensions change for no reason?
« on: March 26, 2010, 12:44:11 PM »
I put a couple flash areas (a clock and weather forecast) onto a screen and when setting up the area I put the width, height, and even distance from the left and top.  When I save an upload it works and are in the proper place, but when i come back to the screen the areas are in a different place and the dimensions are off.  They are always all the way on the bottom from where I laid it out and squished.  I have to reconfigure every time I open up the screen.  Anyone else run into this problem?  A fix?

Thanks in advance.
Kevin

To have an accurate representation of your canvas, then you will need to ensure that you use 100% and do not use Fit. Also, you can choose the select the area with Locked Position. But you are right sometimes I do get the same issues, it is not 100% accurate. It is one of those things I suppose.
