Hi everybody. Happy New Year!
The standard dimension are 640 x 480.
If the customer want to change that into e.g. 777 x 444. he can do that in the index.html file.
The file size will be the same.
Now I want give it myself 777 x 444 because of a bigger thumbmenu.
If I use Window Size in the Flash output, the file size will be bigger.
I think I can change it without changing the file size, in the HTML template, but where and how?
Will the quality be less?

typically our final stitched images are 6000 x 3000 for spherical panoramas.
Creating cube face size is easy. Divide your stitched image WIDTH (ours is 6000 pixels wide) by Pi or 3.1415. So 6000/3.1415 = 1909.9 or 1910 px cube face size value. If your image is 5000 px wide then 5000 /3.1415 = cube face size 1591.59 or 1592 pixels.
For broad band internet connection visitors probably a finished Flash .swf file size is around 1.5 to 2.0mb. You achieve this size by slowly reducing the cube face size down from 1910 to 1810, in small steps -> to 1210 pixels should get you to around 2.0 mb size.
Then make minor adjustments in cube face COMPRESSION by clicking on the cube face TILE button [Tile Quality] and in small steps 80% for first 4 sides and UP 40 and down 35% compression. Watch for sky pixelation.. like blue sky will become checkered or blocky distortion.. if you have applied too much compression then increase the compression from 40% to say 45% to 60% until the blue sky checker block distortion goes away. After each trial watch the .swf file size increase a little.
Use a goal of 1.5 - 1.8 mb .swf slowly adjusting up or down the cube face sizes and tile compression values.
Hope this helps
