Drag-and-Drop Resizable Flash...

Thoughts:

(Mike, this is after my response to your "I can't believe you said that...." post. Let me just say that you're obviously having fun, doing the detective thing. Kinda wish I could do the same, but alas, the other half has a Honey-Do list longer than both our arms, so my time for this kind of thing is limited! )

So anyway, I remember that ProxRocks once said, and I paraphrase here, "why would I want to use other applications that do what I can already do in Proxo?" Well, one reason I don't put all of my eggs in one basket is called 'the single point of failure' issue. Another reason is sometimes nothing so much as elegance. Note that I define elegance as being the best use of the least resources to get the job done.

Let me point out, Proxrocks, that your submitted filters above are so far out of proportion to the end result that it's no longer possible for me to keep my mouth shut. In the vein of z12's "submit it for everyone to see, maybe we'll learn something", I'm gonna trash your "let Proxo do it all" algorithm, and at the same time, let you in on a little secret......

Go here: NirSoft's Toggle Flash proggie, and see if that doesn't do exactly what you want, without all the fuss of trying to make one filter play nice with another (regardless of who wrote them). I've been using this for years, and I'm here to tell you, it works, 100% of the time, both on my old W98SE box, and now on my XPSP2 box too. Without actually trying the re-size code samples submitted above (sorry, the idea doesn't really make me wanna dance, Dick, but it's got a nice beat!), I'd be willing to bet even odds that at least one of those routines will work perfectly with this tiny app.

HTH
