New Window From Projector



Hi all, I'm having a problem that I was hoping someone could help me with. I wanted to open a new window from a .swf that's being externally loaded by a projector file. The script works perfectly fine if the .swf is embedded in an HTML page, but not from the projector.

Here is the script I am using...

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:void(window.open('newpage.html','newW in','width=650,height=490,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No, location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,resizable=No,f ullscreen=No'))")
}

What it does is it opens the popup window, but then it also opens a blank page with the message [object] on it. I have tried everything mentioned in this forum and nothing seems to be working, I am totally stumped.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Load .swf Or Projector In New Window From Another Projector
i am trying to put together a CD with my portfolio... i have the main movie playing from a projector and i want to show some samples of flash movies i have made. is there any way i can load them into a new window rather than having them load into the same window as the main movie?

if not... here is my other problem... one of my movies plays music using:

loop = new sound();
loop.attachSound("loop");
loop.start(0, 100);

the problem is, when i try to load the movie with this music into the existing window on level 1 it will not play the music, but all sounds on the timeline play fine.

any help is appreciated...

Minimize Projector's Window
Hi

in Flash MX you have a possibility to switch an projector (standalone)presentation between fullscreen and normal window.

But is there also a possibility to minimize the window in MX? I mean, some command or something that will make Flash Player window minimize automatically from "inside" the presentation (without user doing something).

Maybe in MX 2004?

Popup Window From Projector
Hi,

I am trying to create an application where I have the swf file open a browser window. The tricky thing is that the swf is opened in a projector (flashplayer) and NOT in a web browser.

This means that I cannot have the javascript code embedded in the header of the html file. I want to eliminate all elements (menubar, status bar, scroller, and etc...) in the new window. And I want to be able to control the size of the window.

I have search on this forum but can't seem to find the codes to do this. Please help!

GetURL() Opens IE Window BEHIND Projector
This isn't in all cases... on only certain machines, it seems that when getURL is called, the browser window is opened behind the projector. I spoke with Macromedia, and they've said that you need to use the target parameter in getURL(). I am using both the URL and TARGET params, and still on SOME machines the browser window doesn't open up in front of the Flash movie.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

(Please keep in mind that my projectors are always full screen--I'm also testing on PCs with various Windows OSs.)

Thanx!

Opening A Html Window From A Projector .exe
k, i've been searching on the boards and i've tried 2 peices of code, this one:


Code:
on(release){
geturl("javascript:window.open('3dmeche.html','3D mech 1.0','width=400 height=300 scrolling=1');void(0)");
}
and this one:


Code:
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:window.open('3dmeche.html','3D meche 1.0','width=500,height=400');void(0);");
}
neither of them are working, the html files are in the same directory as the .exe file. i'm going to use it in a interactice cd thing, are their any codes i could use?

Giving Up On Last Fix..new One...how To Set Size Of Projector Window?
I started building a movie at a set size...they approved it.  Then later they decided they wanted it full screen.  No problem, us the FSCommand.

Now a problem.  Popups are not being consistant at all.  (I can post what I have tried, but I think I have burned out that route.)

So, is there a way I can tell the projector to open at 75% of screen size...(for example)?  That way the user will be able to find the popups regardless where their computer puts the new window.

(No, I cannot resize the whole movie.  That would be days worth of work...and no time to deadline.)
