Full Screen Flash Tutorial Not Compatible With Firefox Browser?
Hey all you smart scripters,

OK this weekend I took a shot at making a full page flash page like the one found in the kirupa tutorial, it works... however the alignment when viewed in Firefox is awful. The html works within Internet Explorer, Safari, but not Firefox, which is a bummer since most PC users I know use firefox for web browsing. Download the tutorial and preview for yourself in Firefox. So what I am trying to get at is... there a way to create a simple html document that will work universally with ALL web browsers? Thanks

preview the link above in firefox to know what I am talking about. I thought Firefox 2 would have fixed this but the same problem arises.

Any suggestions or referred links?
Thanks

Full Screen Tutorial In AS 3.0
How can I modify the code to work in AS 3.0?
I know a lot of things are different and I don't really know how to replicate that same effect to AS 3.0

This is the code in AS 2.0
Code:

import flash.display.BitmapData;
Stage.align = "TL";
var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("bg");

function fillBG() {
this.beginBitmapFill(tile);
this.moveTo(0,0);
this.lineTo(Stage.width,0);
this.lineTo(Stage.width,Stage.height);
this.lineTo(0,Stage.height);
this.lineTo(0,0);
this.endFill();
right_text._y = 5;
right_text._x = Stage.width;
right_bar._x = Stage.width;
right_bar._height = Stage.height;
bgShadow._width = Stage.width;
bgShadow._height = Stage.height;
}
fillBG();

var stageL:Object = new Object();
stageL.onResize = function() {
fillBG();
}
Stage.addListener(stageL);

Full Screen Page Tutorial
im having a weird problem after following this tutorial:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/fullscreen.htm

i published the swf and html according to the directions and it looked and worked fine when i tested it within flash and via the html page. i then transferred the files to a second computer and uploaded them to the server. now when i view the pages via IE im getting a margin at the bottom that causes the scroll bar to appear (seen here: http://www.skateboardspinnerrims.com).

any ideas what's causing this?

thanks.

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

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 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,

Searching For A Tooltip Tutorial
Hi guys,

Does anyone happen to know where I could find a good tutorial to create a hovering tooltip effect over a picture?

I mean, when you over the picture (it's a groupphoto where I have to add names when you go over the heads), I need a textbox to appear that follows the cursor, once you go off the head, the box disappears.

I'm sure there's a tutorial somewhere online, but I can't find it. Or is it really simple to build this myself?

Thanks alot guys!

Searching For Music Tutorial...
Hello all,

I absolutely love this site! It has helped so much and now I hope it can help me again.

Does anyone know where I can find a music tutorial that shows how to do the infamous "equalizer display" that so many sites now have ?

There is one at the top of www.2advanced.com.

Now, if someone knows where I can find a tutorial that would explain how to do this, I would be very happy.

Thanks in advance (in case I forget to do it later... )

Full Screen In Flash @ 100%...
Hi all
I'm creating a CD ROM in flash and need to open it up so that my desktop becomes 'hidden'. (ie: my flash file centers the screen, and a black border all the way around.)
I have used FS commands @ full screen set to "true" and allow scale set to "false", but I cannot seem to be able to crop the movie. For example if I have a box flying across the screen to the right it should disppear as soon asit it hits the edge of the movie frame, but instead I can still see it.
I know in director I can create a Projector file from there and it will do it, is there an easy way to do this in Flash?
I'm not that clued up on html, but i'm willing to give it a go if it will work!
Thanks in advance for any help

Hi,

Full Screen Flash App. ? How
So I have a flash file I made - that I saved as a .swf
I have an autorun program ie. Text file that makes it run if you were to put it to a cd and pop it into another computer. it's just a MC - but what script internal like actionscript or Java outside script - what do I need to make the movie I have - Full screen.

The ideal goal here being - you pop in the cd.
and this file auto and goes full screen.

Anythoughts.

Thanks for the help.

PS. I think I have the auto run down but if you kow of a good way to do this whole thing - write away.

Thanks

Flash Full Screen
OK... so hopefully this will make sense.

I have a flash file that is 740 x 750. In that flash file I have a bg image that is about 1600 pixels wide.

In the index.html page where I'm embedding the flash file I have set the width to 100% with all of the scale options set to "noscale" I also have an fs command on the first frame of the flash file (allowscale = false)

all is pretty much working as I had planned except it seems to be putting white space in the flash file to the left of the content. There is no such white space in the actual FLA... so I'm really not sure what the frig is going on.

Let me know if that made sense and if you might have a solution to my problem.

thanks

Hello,

Does anyone know the method required for having your Flash movie in a full screen window but keeping the objects the same sized and centred?

I am looking to do something similar to the SkyHD website:
http://shop.sky.com/hd/navigationself

You will notice that it is a full screen Flash movie with a background that spans across the whole window. However, the objects within their movie have not altered in size and remain centred to the window.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions!

Full Screen Flash
This might be an easy question for somebody, but how do you get flash to load and fill the whole of the available browser window? I don't mean fullscreen, just in the regular browser space, so back buttons and address bar are left alone, like this example here (below). When you resize the browser the stage resized but the flash moviw doesn't scale up and down, bits just reposition.

does this make sense?

Full Screen Flash
Adobe Flash CS4, ActionScript 3.0
Hello,

I am a relatively new flash user. Recently on a project that I am working on, I have been having a lot of problems getting my flash website to work at full screen.

My website is composed of three basic components:

1) Links
2) Content body
3) Background

And I am trying to have the background picture to scale to web browser size, while the links and content body remain at the same position in proportion to the original aspect ratio (centered).

I am unable to find concrete help on the web to not only have my background resize to the browser size, but to also have my links & content body to remain in the same position in proportion to the original design aspect ratio (if I were to design the website in 800 x 600, I would like the links to remain in the relatively same position if I were to view the site in 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024).

Any help on this would be much appreciated, thank you
