Resizing activities

[dzidian]

:)In the resource library, when I pull out a shared activity(ex. under elementary--games--abc jigsaw) I have to fight with it to get it to a working size to do the activities. Is there an easier way? Many thanks.

Using the select tool, draw a box around the activity to get the pick-up handles. (Don't get too close to the activity so it won't think you are trying to click on it!) The bottom right one should size it proportionally.

I can size it fine that way.... However, getting it work after that is a challenge! YIKES! I may be no help. :( It seems like all the .swf files in the library want to move the whole activity around instead of letting you play the activity.

Here's a screenshot of the icon to drag to resize.

I also found that some of the flash files didn't work unless you moved to another page and back.

I just tested out a couple of them though.

I noticed that the flash activites weren't playing after I resized them. I went to the browser of items on the page and locked the newly sized activity down. It plays fine after that!
