Flash :: ActionScript 3.0 Fullscreen MAJOR Problem

Major Problem With Browsers And Fullscreen Effect
hi

i've created a website that has a fullscreen background as part of the swf movie. in the movie a background image, that is much bigger than the movie's actual stage dimensions (800 x 500), fills the rest of the browser screen outside of those dimensions. this is achieved by having the swf's height and width at 100% in the html document (code below), rather than its pixel size.

in safari (testing on a mac) this works fine, but it doesn't work properly in any other browser. in internet explorer (testing on windows) the movie placement in the browser window is shifted up so that part of the movie is cut off. in firefox and netscape (testing on a mac) this shift is even more pronounced, and not only does it shift up but the bottom 2/3rds of the screen is blank! in opera (testing on a mac) there is a 10 pixel margin all around the screen (even though the margin set in the html document is 0).

any ideas what isn't working??

you can see the html code below, and the website can be viewed at http://www.immaterial.plus.com/subvista

many thanks for any help!

Major Major Major Print Headache Pleeeeeeeease Help, Someone
hey peeps, harldy anyone knows much about printing from flash i have found so anyone who can come up with a solution is a complete genius and deserves to be knighted.

Ok, i have a giant flash movie (2250x2400) with about 30 draggable boxes which can also be made invisible as the user wishes.

what i want is to be able to set flash to print the whole thing over a series of pages, presumably 6 i would think. Im thinking this would be done somehow by setting a value for the maximum print area by using actionscript and set it to the size of a4?

ive tried using printing masks with the #b label but it prints everything as it was in its original state before anything has been moveed or made invisible so this is therefore not an option!

Any ideas??

ive tried looking into this but as i say there is very little information regarding detailed printing action, maybe someone in here can be a hero!!!

many thanks in advance

any pointers or guidance would also be appreciated!!

cheers

[CS3] Fullscreen Actionscript 2.0
Hi guys I am looking for a fullscreen script in actionscript 2.0. Can i anyone help me out. It would be great. thanks.

Fullscreen Actionscript

Can anyone let me know how to do this?

Fullscreen Actionscript Randomization
I have a code for randomized stars. My problem is how do I make it randomize at any browser size? It's a full flash site that I am making. Actionscript nub here. Heres what I have for the size of the randomization.

ok, so lets say you publish a fullscreen swf. I attached the no scale to the stage. What would I have to do to make the clips inside align around the stage. Like for example... have a clip align to the right, no matter how much the window is adjusted.

is there a certain piece of actionscript I attach to these clips?

thanks for your help in advance,

Major Problems With Actionscript "bugs" (?) With Flash 8 Pro And Mac Os X 10.3.9
I'm working with a demo version of Flash 8 Pro in Italian for Mac OS 10.3. downloaded from adobe site.
I get unespected result with my very basic actionscripting. That is to say errors that simply don't exixst. Then I cancel the code, retype (letter by letter) again and everything work for the output panel, but the whole doesn't work when .swf is saved. Similar problem with copy and paste. Same problem with copy and paste of frames and action from a "no errors found" movie to a onther, in which errors are found.
In other forums nice guys tested my code and says everything is fine, and it seems that the problem is my flash.
I unistalled-reinstalled-patched. But nothing seemed to change.

Does anybody of you had encoutered the same problems working on a mac? Any rumors of bugs? Any suggestion of how fixing the problems?

I can't attach the movie since it'more than 2 M

Actionscript Quicktime In Fullscreen Mode
I ahve written a cd in html so it willl run on Macs and PC's. I have written a introduction presentation that runs fine for PC's but for the Mac I am going to have to do something equivalent using Quicktime output (mov). I need the movie (presentation) to open fullscreen. I don't know how to call the quicktime file from a html menu on the mac and have it open fullscreen. Is there an actionscript that can do this?

I really don't know how to do anything on my new mac so close directions would be appreciated. Can I call the file from a htmlor from an icon on it? Phew I know how to do nothing on the Mac.

[F8] [flash8/actionscript 2.0.] FullScreen + External Interface
Hello Community,

Hope you all are doing great.

I am working on a project heavily based on flash and javascript communication and I am doing it through flash 8 external interface class.

As we can achieve fullscreen mode by using the command
Stage["displayState"] == "fullScreen")

but when I try to do it outside from flash in browser through javascript, this command doesn't work.

Then through some articles I found out that the user has to explicitly click the button from inside flash to make this work....

So.......... is there any way we make it happen?

Thanks

Runnng External Swf Actionscript While In Fullscreen Mode
I am using Flash 9.0 (CS3 Pro). I am coding in Actionscript 3.0

I have two swf files, both interactive. During playback of the, a mouse event launches the second. I also want the mouse event to trigger a switch to fullscreen mode. The second swf is non-linear and requires user input to jump to the appropriate frame of the timeline. Everything tests and runs perfectly during standard screen mode but whenever I try to load and play the external swf file in fullscreen mode, Flash recognizes the actionscript built into the original SWF but ignores all of the Actionscript (this.stop(), this.gotoAndPlay(), etc.) embedded in the second (external) swf file.

How can I get external swf files to load with their scripted functionality in fullscreen mode?

Thanks for the help.

Aaron

-------
The code I am using is:

// --- this is the code contained in the first swf file
// function to launch second SWF file
function movieLaunch(event:MouseEvent):void
{

// Sets display mode to fullscreen. With this line present, Flash does not look at any Actionscript in ip.swf
// If I comment the below line out, the second SWF plays correctly and has full functionality
stage.displayState = "fullScreen";

// load and launch second movie (ip.swf) which is located in the same directory
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("ip.swf");
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.load(request);
addChild(loader);
}

// Sets the listener for the button that will launch the second movie.
launchMovieButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, movieLaunch);Text

[AS FLASH8] - Loading Fullscreen External SWF's Into A Fullscreen SWF
Hey guys, sorry if this gets confusing I'm trying to explain the best I can.

Here's what I'm having a problem with: http://golibersuch.com/c/mnsm3.html

What I've done is created a "fullscreen SWF" by using ActionScript to stretch a movie clip (yellow rectangle) in the background to fill the whole browser frame. The navigation is positioned in the upper left using ActionScript also; when the user resizes the window, positions are adjusted so the nav always stays in the upper left. (Adapting the technique from http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial...retching/13567)

External SWFs are loaded from an XML file into a blank movie clip on a layer that is between the yellow background and the navigation (adapting the kirupa XML Photo Gallery). Here's my problem: I want to be able to create full screen backgrounds for these external SWFs so when they are loaded into the main SWF they cover up all the of yellow background of the main clip. Also if the user resizes the window, I hope like the main SWF, the background on the external SWF can also resize to match.

If you press next twice to get to item three for example, I want to be able to stretch that orange box to fill the entire background. You'll notice if you resize the window on the third item, the orangle rectangle will adjust, it's just not correct. Any ideas? Maybe I'm going about this wrong. If this helps, a zip of all related files including .fla can be found here: http://golibersuch.com/c/mnsm.zip

Thanks! Any input would be appreciated.

FLVPlayback Fullscreen When Stage Is Fullscreen?
Hello, a bit of a newb to AS3 but can't find any answers to this.

I have my stage set to fullscreen and Exact_Fit.

stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.EXACT_FIT;
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;

I did this because I don't want any borders and I want the swf to fit the screen entirely. I have videos i am displaying using the FLVPlayback with a skin that has the fullscreen button. When I click the fullscreen button, the stage is made smaller, nothing happens with the size of the video. I also have the fullScreenTakeOver property set to false. If I have it set to true, the video loads fullscreen, which is not what i want, need it to load at the normal size (800 x 600).

note:: If I do not have the stageDisplayState = FULL_SCREEN, and I have fullScreenTakeOver = true, everything works fine but the stage is in window mode and does not take up the entire screen.

Any Help is GREATLY Appreciated!!

Thanks!

Near Fullscreen Launch Without Fullscreen - How To?

NEED MAJOR HELP
I have 4 buttons that load four different external movies into level 1 each at one time.

Button one: profile.swf
Button two: services.swf
Button three: experience.swf
Button four: contact.swf

all these movies have a frame label close which fades out the content. I have 3 problems:

Problem #1:

Lets say the user presses profile and the movie loads. Now when the user presses the services
button, I want to have the profile movie go to the close frame label and after it has faded out
I want services to load. Important: I want the services movie to wait until the other is finished closing.

Problem #2:

When I press profile, the movie loads. But when I press it again, it loads again. i want nothing to
happen if the movie is already loaded and the user presses its button again.

Problem #3: (and I think the most difficult one)

Each movie has a loading scene in it. But the user still has to wait for that loading scene to load.
The loading scene is the same for all four movies. I want to have this loading scene in my main movie so the
user wont have to wait for it to load each time in the external movies. The problem is that I also have
Precent loading variables. here is the loading actionscript I am using for the preloader in profile.swf

Code:
if (_totalframes eq _framesloaded) {
gotoAndPlay (22);
}
loadingM.size = getBytesTotal();
loaded = getBytesLoaded();
left = size-loaded;
loadingM.percent = int(loaded/loadingM.size*100);

How would I change this actionscript so I can put it in my main movie and have it work with profile or the other external movies. for an example of what I'm talking about, check out http://www.webagent007.com

Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Need Major Help With Txt Box?
Hi all heres the problem

I have a scrollable txt box, calling external .txt files, here the code i am using for the txt box MC

onClipEvent (load) {
this.loadVariables(_root.content);
scrolling = 0;
frameCounter = 1;
speedFactor = 3;
needInit = false;
}
onClipEvent (data) {
needInit = true;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (needInit) {
if (textfield.maxscroll>1) {
// Text is loaded!
needInit = false;
}
}
if (frameCounter%speedFactor == 0) {
if (scrolling == "up" && textfield.scroll>1) {
textfield.scroll--;
} else if (scrolling == "down" && textfield.scroll< textfield.maxscroll) {
textfield.scroll++;
}
frameCounter = 0;
}
frameCounter++;
}

As you can see iam calling the content varibale from the _root of the movie, i have the action on the first frmae of the movie

content = "welcome.txt"

so it works out that the first onload event for my txt box is calling this varible content, which = a text file

e.g

onClipEvent (load) {
this.loadVariables(_root.content); <<<--------------
scrolling = 0;
frameCounter = 1;
speedFactor = 3;
needInit = false;

Txt box works fine and loads the welcome.txt file for me, but what i intended to do was use this one txt box to display all my content, so there wont be loads of serperate txt boxes for each section, so i tried this action on a button

on (release)
content = news.txt

i was hoping this would change the welcome.txt to the news.txt

but no, oviously the "onClipEvent (load) {
this.loadVariables(_root.content); "
was only run once as its inside a onload event

So in a nut shell how to i keep changing the content of 1 txt box calling external txt files, by using buttons

sorry i went on for quiet a bit, i just really wanted to get all the detials across

This may be totally impossible, but if not, I really need someone that can tell me how to do it...
To simplify, let's say I want to make a flash movie that gives users a simple black circle. I want the user to be able to change the color of that circle and 'save' the state of that circle so that it can be retrieved later.

So let's say Johnny opens the movie and makes a blue circle. Sally opens the movie and makes a pink circle. Later, I want Johnny and Sally to be able to reopen the flash movie and retrieve the circles they created.

Any information to point me in the right direction would be GREATLY GREATLY GREATLY appreciated. And please keep your replies in idiot terms...I'm a simpleton.

Major SOS
I've switch to the new Apple Mini. Very Nice. My first MAC. Not my first to work with however.

1.25 GHZ
512 MB Ram
etc...with the fixins

I'm not here to discuss if PCs are better than MACs just want some help on a major issue. I don't have problems opening my files from my PCs. It seems like the files were ported over to the Mac quite nicely. However I'm having performance issues when opening those files in both Safari and IE 5.2.3. When opening other flash sites the browsers do their thing with excellent results. However when I opening my local htm files for preview the flash swf plays REALLY SLOW. I mean pathetic. But yet when I play the swf file on the stand alone flash player it works great.

WHY can I open other flash sites on Safari and IE and they work awesome but my local html file and when uploaded to the web it doesn't perform well and its jerky.

Any body have a suggestion?

I am doing a kiosk for a company, and they wanted to know if someone could fill out a form and have the info stored to the disk. I know flash itself can not do this.

Is there away to help flash do this action?

Unfortunatley the kiosk will not be connected to the net.

So I need to find a work around so the information can be stored the hard drive of the kiosk.

Thanks in advance for all the help

Help...Major Pop Up Frustrations...Help
OK, for the Flash button I've inserted to following code:

on (release)
{
getURL ("javascriptpenNewWindow('http://whatever/whatever.htm,'','height=XXX,width=XXX,toolbar=no,s crollbars=no,resize=no')");
}

and the following between the heads of the html page:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=Javascript>
function openNewWindow(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures)
{
newWindow=window.open(URLtoOpen, windowName, windowFeatures);
}
</SCRIPT>

The button is part of a Flash movie that is part of a separate html document. The pop-up works when the Flash movie is tested in a browser as a stand alone movie, but when added to my main html page, the button just flickers when clicked. I need help.... What am I missing here? Anybody? Anyone? Beuller?
