Flash :: Full Screen And Objects To Edge

Full Screen Flash Page With Repeating Edge Pixels?
Hello,

I found this forum in search of a tutorial about full screen. I haven't yet found any that would instruct on how to make the edge pixels of the actual file to repeat and fill out the space between the edge of the file and the edge of the screen. For example if I had a Flash file (width 1200 px) with full-width horizontal stripes in it, how could I make the stripes fill out the width of a screen larger than that in full screen mode?

I am new to Flash (though somewhat familiar with scripting), so if you know an answer, please try to be comprehensive!

Scale Objects When Switched To Full Screen..
Would anybody happen to know if there is a way to scale objects accordingly on stage when switching to fullscreen.. It's sort of like when the stage is set to "scale", and all the objects scale accordingly, but I'm trying to scale the objects while having the stage set to "noScale"..

Overlaying Other Objects In Flash 9 Full Screen Video
Is there a way to overlay other objects on top of fullscreen video in Flash CS3? I have tried the general tutorial and full screen video is unbelievable, but the next question is how to brand that with graphics, etc. that scale as the video goes full screen...

Full Screen Video Mode Preserving Objects Size
Hi,

My task is to show a video player in a full screen mode. I have no problem doing that but I need it to perform in a such a way that only video scales to the full screen while other objects (player controls) remain unscaled. If I just go to the fullscreen mode - everything on the stage is scaled up naturally.

Playing with the full screen features I could come up with the only solution which is to calculate a scaling factor (based on, say, stage.width and stageWidth) and adjust player controls dimensions and position accordingly.

Is it the best way to preserve objects sizes or there is a better technique?

I hoped that because each display object has it's own stage and I could show full screen only video by doing something like:

_video.stage.fullScreenSourceRect = screenRectangle;
_video.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;

but it still expands all the objects.

Thank you very much for sharing you experience (or sources).

Floating Objects To Bounce Off Edge
Hello,

I have some objects randomly moving around the screen, and I want them to bounce off the edge of the screen, how do I do this?

Also when they hit an object they dissapear, and I want them to play a sound at the same time, how do I do this? After "this.unloadMovie();" I want to say something like "this.playSound(soundeffect);" but it's not right!

Here's the code I have so far.

//Randomly animate the squares
//Change the alpha when squares touch
rec2_mc.onEnterFrame = function() {
this.xpos += Math.floor(Math.random()*3)-1;
this.ypos += Math.floor(Math.random()*3)-1;
this._x += this.xpos;
this._y += this.ypos;
if (this.hitTest(rec_mc)) {
this.unloadMovie();
}
};

Alpha 0 When Near Edge Of Screen
Hi i basically have some objects which move depending on mouse position. They go off one side of the screen and on the other.

I would like to make them fade away as they got near the edge of the screen, please could someone explain how to do this

thanks

Detect Edge Of Screen
Please take a look at this FLA..right now, i am using a hit test with a MC to determin if the car hits the edge of the stage.

What I want is make the movie 100% of the window size and have it determin the edge of the window (not necessarily with a hit test & a MC), so when it reaches the edge, it "crashes."

Thanks in advance...

Moving Objects Bounce When Hitting Edge
Hello,

Objective: Have an object move on the screen and when it hits the edge of the screen (top, side or bottom) have it bounce in another direction and do this continually.

I have Axialis Professional Screensaver software that will allow me to use flash files to make a screensaver. I mean to incorporate the above into the screensaver.

I am new at Flash and have used the posted Random tutorial to make an object move randomly which worked but it just doesn't do what I need it to. I would be more than willing to send the .fla file to someone to review. Any suggestions or pointing to a tutorial that would assist me in this venture would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Flash Window Is Off The Edge Of The Screen, Unable To Recover
Using Adobe Flash CS3 on a sometimes dual monitor setup. After attaching back to my docking station, and starting up Flash CS3, the window is off the edge of the right hand monitor somewhere, and I am not sure where. The mouse cursor makes it look like the window is somewhere off the lower right hand corner of the screen somewhere, but even after holding in the left and up arrows for a long time, there is no motion, and the window never appears. I can maximize the program back to my primary monitor, but this is hardly an ideal solution.

I have found the following registry entry, but am unsure if it applies to what I'm having problems with or what the format of the entry is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERAdobeFlash 9SettingsWindow

Hoping someone can help figure out what is going on here and how I can recover the window from wherever it is actually hiding.

Full Screen Flash. No Toolbars, Controllers, Just The Flash Page On Full Screen - How
Ive seen this on DVD Roms, Multimedia Roms, Presentation Cds, etc.

People insert their DVD or CDs of their Flash and it plays automatically and at Full screen. There's no Controllers or anything except the one you make in the Flash itself.

There's no browser either. Its like watching a DVD where all you see is just the movie.

Anyone know exactly what this method is called and any tutorials or samples on how to do this with your Flash page.

Thanks

Full Screen Flash Projector Reverts To Windowed When Exiting Screen Saver
I've created a flash projector that displays a companies product catalog on a 50" touch screen plasma display.
It looks great and plays great if I launch the projector and force it to full screen.
However, since this is a plasma, screen burn in is a major issue to contend with.
I've set the Windows screensaver to activate after one minute of inactivity.
The problem is that when the screensaver is exited by a touch, the flash projector that was running in full screen mode is now back in windowed mode so CTRL-F has to be hit to force it to full screen again.
This isn't good.
So, I guess my question is two-fold:
Is it possible to programatically force the projector to full screen mode so that no user intervention is required? (fscommand works on the first launch, but when the screensaver kicks in, all bets are off.)
And/Or
How would I go about creating a timer to activate an internal screensaver and insert it into the actionscript for the XML gallery?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rick

Why Does Full Screen Only Full Screen My Video?
I have a toggle button for full screen:

PHP Code:

private function toggleFS(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN)
    {
        stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.NORMAL;
    }
    else
    {
        stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
    }
}

but when I hit it, its focuses on just my video and nothing else. I want to essentially full screen the video, but also the time line with it.

Finding Dimensions Of Screen Height/width In Full Screen?

[FLASH9- AS2] Full Screen, Keep Scale Ratio, Center Screen
[ X ] Problem solved

Hi everyone

I just came up with something i have some trouble to handle
I've tried a couple of solution but none seems to work perfectly

What I'm trying to do is simple, get my flash to go full screen, but whatever resolution the user has, my flash must centers itself with the biggest proportion possible, and two movie clips goes right and left of it, as if they were borders.

I've been able to do this with a simple png, but i was not able with a movieclip where his dimension changes through time. ( i have a tween, so the mc gets really big even though just my stage is displayed)

Full Screen Flash - Screen Center Problem
Hi, I'm trying to use full screen flash, and place my movieclips with actionscript.
It's screwing up the screen center for some reason though, and I can't seem to figure out why...

Here's the screwed up site:
http://www.combinecreative.com/test/mover.html

Here's the code that's on a movable MC:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x += (_root.logox - _x)/3;
_y += (_root.logoy - _y)/3;

Here's the code I'm using on the main timeline to move the MC's:
_root.logox = Stage.width / 2;
_root.logoy = Stage.height / 2 - 200;

It seems pretty straight foward, but for some reason it's offsetting my screen center...

Any ideas would be great!

Full Screen Flash Page On All Screen Settings
PLEASE COULD SOMEONE HELP

I am NEW to FLASH and am designing a website (www.sk1online.co.uk)

I have designed a website the size of the website is 800x600.

I have published the website with the following settings:

100%x100%

Scale: Exact Fit

Window: Transparentless

When I view the website on a 800x600 screen setting the website appears perfect and takes up the whole screen.

HOWEVER, when I view the website on other settings say 1024x768 the website shrinks and dosnt take up the whole page.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I COULD PUBLISH THE WEBSITE SO IT FILLS THE WHOLE PAGE ON ALL SCREEN SETTINGS.

I have used the following to no LUCK.

Full Screen Flash On All Screen Sizes
The problem I have is that I designed a website 800x600 (page size).

When I publish the website in 800x600 screen resolution the website doesn't fit in the whole page (it stretches).
I then designed the website taking up half of the 800x600 page and published it. It viewed full screen on 800x600 screen resolution only and on other screen resolutions it shrinked.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I COULD VIEW IT FULL SCREEN ON ALL RESOLUTIONS,

Blur Filter - Need To Blur Only The Objects At The Edge Of The Stage.
Hi everyone! I have created a slideshow which pulls in images with xml and then places them in a horizontal row in the middle of the stage. I have a previous and next button which cycles through the images.

I am trying to make the images blurry except for the one that is front and center on the screen. As you cycle through the images, they are blurry until they get to the center. How would I go about doing this?

I have imported the BlurFilter, but when I apply it to the imageholder mc, all of the images are blurry. How can I tell it to not blur the one currently in the center of the stage?

Thanks!

FULL SCREEN...the Full Ideal?
Hello,

Ok I'll get right to it...

I have been to sites where the Flash movie is held within a border that loads seperate, I believe within the HTML page itself, that the flash movie is sitting on...

These sites will work well at any resolution above 800x600, with everything centered as well. If the window is scaled down by size, the flash movie centers too as well as the HTML page

How do I do this.

I have this code:
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
fscommand("allowscale", "true");

where do I put it and how does it work! More important, the 'how it works' part....

thanks

i hope the question is clear enough...

Edge To Edge Collision Detection
hi
is there a way to do edge to edge collision detection of two movie clips? I am trying to detect when my first MC hits my second one but the clips might be on a diagonal angle and so i need to use the actual MC and not the bounding box. I tried using true but it doesn't work. Basically i have a MC you can drive around and another which is a shed. I want to park in the shed but only through the open door. If you hit the wall i want the first MC to stop. But the shed is on and angle and so the wall is angled. How do I get this to work?
thanks anyone

Screen Size Changes -- Can't Get Full Screen
I loaded a swf file on my homepage. However, it appears small. But when another link -- within a standard HTML page -- is used to go back to the swf page it then appears the larger viewable size. If anyone has suggestions on how to make the entire site viewable larger -- I would sure appreicate it.

Hello,

I have a site with a flash movie within a html page. I want that page to be released in a full screen but with the bleu bar on top (you know what I mean)because I don't want people to click next/previous within my site because I made my site in scenes. I can do this if I make a normal html page first and then make a link to my flash page with some script that says only menu bar...

NOW can I make my index.html file like this that when people type f.e. www.mydomain.com they get this kind of page directly or does it have to be by a special link.

I hope you know what I mean

Thanks

And, if you are feeling ambitious, could you help me with the 'exit' button that lies in the flash movie? Thanks. -marc

Full Screen... On The Web?
Guys,

I've just run across a site on the web that spawns a 'windowless window' - i.e., that gives you a full-screen Flash window.

How in the world can you do that? I know you can do it for a standalone player, but I've never seen this on thw web before. Needless to say... I love it! How in the world do you do it? Is it Flash 5 only??

Here's my dilemma. I used fs commands to make it full screen and not have the movie resize. It seems to works. My problem is that my animation has graphics bleeding off the sides. and it shows it when it plays.

I tried masking but it seems to slow down the perfromance. Is there a way to make it so you don't see the excess graphics when you use fs command and still keep the performance intact.
