MACROMEDIA FLASH 8-DEVELOPING FLASH LITE 2.X Develop Manual page 91

For example, the Stage area that is available to a SWF file running in full-screen mode in the
stand-alone player on a Nokia Series 60 device is equal to the device's full screen size (176 x
208 pixels). On other devices (such as those available in Japan), the Stage area that is available
to a SWF file running in one of the specialized content types (such as Address Book or
Screensaver) might be less than the device's total screen size. For example, the Fujitsu 700i has
a screen size of 240 x 320 pixels; however, a SWF file running in the device's Address Book
application has 96 x 72 pixels of available Stage area.
If a SWF file's actual dimensions are different from the available Stage dimensions, the Flash
Lite player scales the content (proportionately) to fit within the available Stage area. When
you test your content in the Flash Lite emulator, the emulator also warns if your application's
Stage size is different from the available Stage area, as the following image shows:
To avoid any undesirable scaling issues, Macromedia recommends that your Flash document's
Stage dimensions match the available Stage area for the selected test device and content type.
Flash Lite features not supported by the emulator
(Flash Professional only)
The emulator doesn't support all the ActionScript commands and player features that are
available to Flash Lite applications running on an actual device. For example, the emulator
doesn't support the ability to initiate phone calls or Short Message Service (SMS) messages. If
you attempt to use a command or feature that isn't supported by the emulator, the emulator
generates a message in the Output panel, as the following image shows:
You must test your SWF file on an actual device to confirm that those features are functioning
as expected.
