Is there any way I can use pixel values to absolutely position static hotspots? I want to be able to place a menu exactly 50 pixels from the top and left borders, but it seems the salignX and salignY only range from -1 to 1, which results in an absolute scale, and also different scales for x and y.

<spot
id="hotspot1"
url="files/hotspotFiles/imaqes/myHotspotImage.jpg"
static="1"
depth="1"
staticX="6"
staticY="-6"
alignX="0"
alignY="-1"
salignX="-0.5"
salignY="0.5"
/>

That's according to FFC. The image is statically placed 6 pixels away from the bottom left corner (and 6 pixels from the left side).

Brilliant, thanks Trausti for setting that up for me.

Would have taken me plenty of trial and error with those 3 sets of variables to get it right...

Working on a cool collaboration between myself and another flash developer for a client's web site that I look forward to sharing when done.
