Got a question here. Is there any way to make a button(s) that automates the zoom tool in flash player?

Also, I'm using #P in keyframes and the GetURL print method, does anyone know how I can tell the printer to automatically print in landscape mode?

Thanks in advance.
 
For zooms, I suggest using the _xscale and _yscale properties of movie clips.

For a zoom in button, you could have
on (release) {
clip._xScale = clip._xScale + 10;
clip._yScale = clip._yscale + 10;
}

Effectively making your clip (or _root, I assume) 10% larger. Remember that scale values stay relative to the original size of the clip.

As for printing, I don't know for sure, but my guess is that it is not possible to force a landscape print.
