the ‘full screen’ size of this external .swf panoramic file is limited by the Movie Clip container size.. i need to make the Movie Clip scale i guess.

swfContainer.width = stage.width
swfContainer.height = stage.height

Helpful article for dealing with Load object events, for stuff like preloaders: http://www.actionscript.org/resources/articles/869/3/Preloading-in-ActionScript-30-the–Easy-Way/Page3.html

strange if i added the .swf to the canvas inside the onComplete function, it wold lose it’s full screen scaling property. Had to remove it from the function to fix it.
