When embedding a SWF, there are a two parameters that control how it scales, crops, and aligns within the available width and height.
- scale: Specifies the scaling method and/or cropping of display objects drawn outside of the dimensions of the object containing the SWF.
| scale Parameter | Scaling Effect | Cropping Effect |
| showall | Proportional | No |
| noborder | Proportional | Possible |
| exactfit | Stretch | No |
| noscale | No | Possible |
- salign: Specifies where the scaled SWF is positioned within the dimensions of the object that contains the SWF.
| salign Parameter | Horizontal Alignment | Vertical Alignment |
| (None Specified) | Center | Center |
| tl | Left | Top |
| t | Center | Top |
| tr | Right | Top |
| r | Right | Center |
| br | Right | Bottom |
| b | Center | Bottom |
| bl | Left | Bottom |
| l | Left | Center |
“salign” is often confused with the HTML object tag’s “align” attribute. However, “align” is actually the same deprecated HTML attribute applied to <img>, <object>, and <applet> tags.
