Sizing apps within the Loader control

21, Feb 2005

I had a recent requirement to load a flex app into anothor using the Loader control, but I was stuck at trying to get the loaded swf to stretch to the available space.

The problem came as the Loader is a component and not a container and therfore doesnt know about percentages or flex, so it cannot size content in the way we would expect it to. There are 2 workarounds, yet i will always take the later as it allows the size to be dynamic.
