Screen to large online

Game works fine running locally with Scratch. When I try to run game online, it starts before I push the green flag, and the game screen is too large to fit in the box and the edges are cut off. There is no way to click the stop button. What's going on?

Re: Screen to large online

The online player runs projects automatically. There is a stop button there too, though; you should be able to see it. This sounds like a problem specific to your computer, although I'd like to see the project you're talking about so I can see if I see the problem too to make sure. Is it currently uploaded to your account and if so, which project is it?

Yes, it's uploaded, and it's the only project I have up on my account. (It's actually my son's account. We're working on this together.)

That happens with my mum's computer, too!

Re: Screen to large online

Try downloading another browser. Your project works fine on my Opera browser, but Scratch will crash completely if I use it with Windows Explorer9.

Re: Screen to large online

It looks fine for me too. I'd try updating your Flash/Java player (depending on which of the two online players you use) or using a different browser.

Re: Screen to large online

Make sure your bowser's not zoomed in or out. That can cause it.


Get out. There's no need for that. ~Kaj Aliv

Re: Screen to large online

Thanks everyone!

It was definitely the zoomed browser screen. When I try changing the zoom, I see the problem come or go.
