    Hi,
    Thanks for a great contribution!

    I use the shadowbox. When I load the swf it downscale. How can I force the size, hight and with?

    Thank you,
    Best regards,

    I need some more information to solve your problem:

    - Where do you embed the video/shadowbox?
    - How does the [flash ...] tag look like?
    - An example page (link)

    Thank you for the answer!!!

    Develop sight: http://www.pelle.se
    >>look for the grey "world map"

    Ex 1 ( in a "Pages" or "Posts")
    [flash http://pelle.se/wp-content/flash/butiker.swf w=800 h=550 mode=3 shownavigation=false preview={http://pelle.se/wp-content/flash_preview/butiker.gif|200|124}]

    Ex 2 ( in Widget )

    Best regards,

    I would say most of it looks fine. Except that "shownavigation=false" should be put into the f={} bracket: f={shownavigation=false}

    You could add the preview settings to the widget, too, to get rid of the big movie symbol.

    But I don't see anything being downscaled when clicking on each shadowbox... hmm...

    The thing is that when I make the browser smaller (in "shadowbox" mode) the swf movie shrinks. I would like the size of the swf to be fixed to 800w 550h, not smaller.

    Thanks!

    Best regards,

    WP-Admin -> Settings -> pb-embedFlash -> Shadowbox settings (dropdown)

    handleLgImages: none

    This should "fix" your issue.

    ::::::::: Scrolling issue :::::::::
    Hi!
    Thankyou!

    Now it is only one issue left!

    If a visitor has lower screen resolution he or her will not be able to see the hole swf because the scroll list is applied to the main page and not to the shadowbox-layer. This means that half the swf can be hidden below/under the Title area of the shadowbox frame.

    Best regards,

    This is where handleLgImages: drag comes into play. The same as "none" except that you can drag the image/swf like you want. Scrolling is not available afaik.

    Hi!
    is it possible to use lightbox2 instead of shadowbox, together with pb-flashEmbed?

    I would say no, because Shadowbox specific code is written into the source code. But feel free to rewrite the shadowbox code generation functions in inc.functions.php :).
