ScaleMode controls the layout of out a single piece of content within a container. There are four enumeration values, NONE, STRETCH, LETTERBOX, and ZOOM. ScalableSprite uses ScaleMode to calculate the layout.

Public Constants
 ConstantDefined By
  LETTERBOX : String = "letterbox"
[static] LETTERBOX sets the width and height of the content as close to the container width and height as possible while maintaining aspect ratio.
ScaleMode
  NONE : String = "none"
[static] NONE implies that the media size is set to match its intrinsic size.
ScaleMode
  STRETCH : String = "stretch"
[static] STRETCH sets the width and the height of the content to the container width and height, possibly changing the content aspect ratio.
ScaleMode
  ZOOM : String = "zoom"
[static] ZOOM is similar to LETTERBOX, except that ZOOM stretches the content past the bounds of the container, to remove the spacing required to maintain aspect ratio.

Constant Detail

LETTERBOX

Constant
public static const LETTERBOX:String = "letterbox"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: OSMF 4.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.0

LETTERBOX sets the width and height of the content as close to the container width and height as possible while maintaining aspect ratio. The content is stretched to a maximum of the container bounds, with spacing added inside the container to maintain the aspect ratio if necessary.

NONE

Constant 
public static const NONE:String = "none"

NONE implies that the media size is set to match its intrinsic size.

STRETCH

Constant 
public static const STRETCH:String = "stretch"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: OSMF 4.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.0

STRETCH sets the width and the height of the content to the container width and height, possibly changing the content aspect ratio.

ZOOM

Constant 
public static const ZOOM:String = "zoom"

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Product Version: OSMF 4.0
Runtime Versions: Flash Player 10, AIR 1.0

ZOOM is similar to LETTERBOX, except that ZOOM stretches the content past the bounds of the container, to remove the spacing required to maintain aspect ratio. This has the effect of using the entire bounds of the container, but also possibly cropping some content.
