Hi there!

Here is my problem (unfortunatelly didn't find solution @google):

I'm loading external swf[AS2] into main swf[AS3] using Loader class. The main swf is 800 x 600 and the external swf is 300 x 200.

After adding the external swf to the main swf the external swf expands it's size from 300 x 200 to the main swf's size: 800 x 600.

How can i prevent this? I want the loaded swf to save it's original size.

Cheers Rob
