Full Screen On Any Size Monitor?
I am trying to put my website on a CD so I can enter it in a contest because they requested it that way.

I decided to use the following FS command and it works fine as long as they have a 21" monitor.

FS Command ("FullScreen", "True")
Play

If they have a smaller monitor my site shows up 1/2 way off of the screen. Is there any way to make it sit on a smaller monitor?

thanks 4 any help!

[F8] New Document: Which Size? Full Screen?
Hi, I've created a website and I'm assuming that it will be seen in a 1024x768 screen, so I created a 990 x 600 flash document but I'm having some space in the borders (in the index.html), so I went to dreamweaver to set space to 0 in each side, the problem is that I'm still having spaces in the borders. How to fix this? Is my reflexion correct? I've tried in the publish settings: full screen and anything else.

How do u resolv this usually?

Full Screen Up To Movie Size
I've got a flash website that uses html to always fill the screen regardless of screen resolution.

I want it to fill the screen up to the point the size would exceed the actual size of the flash movie. So the movie would fit the browser is the browser is smaller than the movie, but if the browser is larger than the movie dimensions, the movie would play at actual size and not fill the browser.

I didn't now if an if/then statement or equivalent could be added to the html to do this.

Here is the targeted lines of my current HTML file:

Code:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub...ersion=7,0,0,0" width="100%" height="100%" id="index" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="index.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#f6eeeb" />
<embed src="index.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#f6eeeb" width="100%" height="100%" name="index" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />

Thanks in advance.

Size To Use For Full Screen Flash
i already have had a look at this thread: http://www.gotoandlearn.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2641

however, i want to display content so that it is full screen at 1024x768 pixels resolution in browser and in Windows XP....i took the recommended advice of making stage size 920 x 850, however i cannot seem to display it properly.

what i did was resize the picture to 920 x 850 then make the stage 920x850, then put code in for window resizing.

take a look at my .fla file please, could anyone help me to fix this problem?

http://www.freewebs.com/drownedinaffection/bg.fla

p.s. i would like fullbrowser like on http://www.matchbookromance.com (when you enter the actual site not the first two pages with ads) with no scrollbars for my picture.

p.p.s. also would like size and ActionScript needed for 1024 x 768 please, not any programs or utilities

Scrren Size For Full Screen Flash
I'm creating a flash site. I want the flash movie to fill the entire browser window. What size should I make the canvas, I've been experimenting with sizes and a canvas size of 750*370 fills my browser well on a resolution of 800*600

How do you accomodate different resolution settings? What's the most commonly used canvas size for this type of project.

Full Screen Presentation - Best Size For Stage?
Been a lurker for ages on these forums and they've been totally invaluable, in fact the recent posts by Nutrox have answered a bunch of questions with regards a Full Screen Presentation.

I was just curious, as this is my first full on multi-media presentation (all previous work has been sites, banners and animation), if there are any recommendations with regards the stage size I should use??

I was thinking 700x500 for example.

This is to be projected onto a screen as a 2 min showreel which will then go into the main presentation (powerpoint *spit*!).

Also, presumably, I can use the code Nutrox provided to display my movie full size with no toolbars, scrollbars visible?

Thanks in advance

Option To Launch Either Full Screen Or Movie Size
Hi there

I would like to have an option on my html page offering the user the choice of launching my flash movie (800 by 600) either full screen (i.e maximised with just the title bar) or at the movie size (i.e 800 by 600 with just the title bar)

Ideally I would like to have 2 checkboxes on the html page or something similar.

Anyone know how to do this or can point me in the direction of a tutorial or example of how to do this?

Thanks in advance

How Do I Make My Intro Page Size Full Screen

2) I would also like the preload page to load then time-out and close prior to my website starting up.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Flash Full Screen With Fixed Size MovieClip
I have a jpeg image (1024x768 pixels) that I want to use as a background for a full screen Flash movie, where the image fills the user's entire screen and will scale when the window is resized. I can do this simply enough by publishing the movie full screen. However, I also want to load a movieClip that does not scale. I want the movieClip to keep it's original size of 600x400 pixels regardless of the window size. Does anyone know how this can be done?

Full Screen Flash With Maximum Size Restriction
hi there,

does anyone know how to set the flash movie to full screen ( I know this bit, have done it, see http://www.primeplc.com/prime2007/Su...ble/index.html) but I need the same file to fill screen but don't go any bigger than its original size 1024x768.

Flash Website - Size Small Would Like Full Screen
Hello
Using Flash CS3 a couple of questions.
1. Flash Website Templates-Size.
Is there a way to adjst the size of the Flash Template Website.. Why is Flash always smaller than Front Page Websites.
I have seen some Flash Sites that do take up the whole screen, but most of the templates I deal with are half the size.
Is size adjustable in a premade Flash Template???? If so where can you adjust the size to make it full screen?Text

2. Flash CS3 Timeline Window
Where do you adjust the length of the the Flash Timeline Window. It seems like everytime I load a Flash Doc the Timeline only shows 5-8 frames instead of 30-50 frams so I can see the whole movie...How can I adjust the length of theTimeline Window?
So it always opens and shows all of the Flash Frames not just the first 3 seconds.

3. Flash Website Template
When Editing a Flash Website Template do I only have to edit the Flash Folder for the website. do I need to edit any of the PSD files, or simple question...IF doing a Flash Site just edit the Flash Folder only? No need to edit other PSD folders?

Thank you so much sorry so long.

Flash Resizing And Full Browser Screen Size
Ok, I have searched the forums and found ways that are close to what I want but I cant seem to find a method that works. What I am trying to do is create a main swf that is the fullscreen background of a browser window. The main.swf then loads another swf on top of it. The problem is I dont want the swf that is on top of the main.swf to change sizes or scale when the browser window is resized.

I tried both
fscommand("fullscreen",true);
fscommand("allowscale",false);

and didnt get what I was looking for.

I know how to do all the html formatting for the embedded flash file, I just cant figure out how to get in working on the flash end.

Can anyone help me figure this out?

Minimum Size Restriction On Full Screen Website
Hello,

I'm using a typical full size website that proportionally scales on browser resize.

I would like to set a minimum dimensions so the user cannot squeeze the website more than 600x420 for example. The page will then start to crop if you go beyond these dimensions.

This must be only a couple lines of code?
Please let me know if you have any idea.
Thanks

A Full Screen Html Page That Doesnt Re-size The Flash Swf

Thanks for the help.

[F8] Setting The Size Of A Video Clip In A Movie That Is Set To Full Screen

Using Tables In Flash. (utilizing The Full Screen Size Of The HTML)
I've noticed a new (or old) feature of Flash where it seems like you can use HTML like tables within your FLA. There are MANY uses out there but for refference here is a great example of its usage. http://www.cgvimax.com/

If anybody can help I would appreciate it!
Thanks all!

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).

To Go From Normal Size To Full Screen Dinamically With Flash In A Browswer
I want to have a flash movie inside a browswer (IE, Firefox) that is of 800 *600 pixels (just to say something) and I want to be able to press a button and make that same flash movie go to full screen, is there a way to do this ?

Full Screen Flash Sites, How Does It Work On Different Size & Resolution Displays?
I am a little confused when making my full screen flash site for an interactive DVD rom which will be played by different people on different PCs and displays.

What size should I be making it for?

I mean people have different monitors and resolution and now widescreen. So what size should I be building the Flash? Will it deform if the viewer has a widescreen lcd screen?

What's the safest size to build the full flash screen site.

I would also like to know, how do I go about making it auto start so when the user loads the DVD-rom, it will automatically go to full screen and load my Flash movie. Would I need to embed the Flash into a HTML page or can I make it auto start on the Flash file by itself?

Thanks

Targeting Thumb Nail Image In Image Scroller To Full Size In Middle Of Screen
Hi people....

Thanks for your time....I`m basically looking for ideas on how to do the following. Most of the work is done all I need I hope is a little actionscript... ( I hope)

I`m building a scrolling picture gallery for someone where they want the thumbnail images, once clicked upon to scale very large in the middle of the screen on top of the image scroller. When the image is clicked it zooms back down to where it was clicked upon in the scolling image gallery. The site that best describes this is http://www.chris-bailey.com.

I can do the scrolling image gallery (well, thanks to other friendly flask kit people) and get the user to click the image buttons to load a movie above the scrolling gallery but its targeting the moving images in the scroller to target to the middle of the screen and stop moving and then go back down to the moving scroller.... All the images in the scroller are seperate movies that are obviously easy to scale but I need to turn off the scrolling action when they start scaling into the main movieso they remain still to view. Any ideas please? Using Flash MX.

Thanks.... Angus

The Right Size To Make A Swf "full Screen"
Dear Ultrashockies, I have two basic questoins:

1. What is correct size of swf if I want it to fit precisely into the browser window?(Like those completely flash website) (1024 * something)

2. How can I add a sound to a button? I have a "click.mp3" now. But where in the time frame should I put it?

Thanks a lot

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)

like..."width = 100%"

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!

Advice : How To Approach Full Site Design
I have been designing html based sites for quite a while now. I've used flash for Nav bars, effects, screensavers, small games etc.., but I've never built an entire site with Flash.

I have tried a few times, but always given up because I feel like I have no idea what i am doing.

I would really appreciate any advice on how to approach and build full flash sites... I'm sure it just need to click in my brain and I'll be away and full flashing....

Any pointers, online tutorials or books would be ideal

Thanks

Top Banner Full Size Drop Down To Smaller Size?
This is kind of a 2 part question, don't know if this should be in the Flash forum or server-side/client-side.

First Question: I need to make a top banner for a new site, which has 4 pictures in it which will all be animated, the trick with this is I need to have it be 800x115 to show the full animation then when the pictures all move up their will be 8 or so buttons underneath the banner. Question is can I get this animation to be throughout the entire site without ever replaying that animation, without using frames? I am using php includes changing the ?id.

Second Question: If the first one doesn't work, I need to set it up using two different tables having the top banner in one and the buttons in the other. Here's the question, how can I do that animation from the first question with just javascripting, so the animation will not play again?

Reiterate: 1 Animation, a top banner which will be a box with 4 pictures in it will start out at full size (800x115) then the 4 pics will move up so that they will now be (800x85) and then buttons will be in the (800x30) spot.

I have seen some codes that look like they would work using cookies but I will need an explanation as to how it works if you can help me. I might have another animation in the site so I will need to make sure that some animations can play over again.

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...

Website Design In MAC-Screen Resolutions
Hey,

I am working on some freelance web design projects on my MAC at home. I just revamped my mac, and all i need now is some more RAM! Finally got the OS X!! YAY!!! Anyways, I have been reading some things, and was planning to design in 1027, but decided to go down to the 800x600 screen res due to stats that say 53% still use this setting! YIKES! so anyways, being that I am on a mac and desiging, can someone please give me some good tips on how to be sure that my design will work in all browsers? What's a good pixel size to design in? I'm going to do it predominately in flash, though I hear the best way to utilize flash for a site, that will be user friendly to most, is to have multiple swf files in an html page, so this is what I'm going to do.

Do you guy's suggest I keep the width at 725, for example? I do not want any scrolling. Any tips, or resources to Desiging websites on a mAC would be great. In the past, all the sites I have done on my mac, end up w/ bottom scrollbars, that are just SLIGHTLY too big across!

Thanks for all the help!
