I am trying to create a button that will close Kiosk Mode (IE), but havent been able to find an example any place. I have tried using the fscommand function but do not get any results, and i think this is because when i launch kiosk mode i am launching the swf instead of the htm file.
View 1 RepliesI've started now working with the fullscreen mode (for a project in college), and I already made the code for a button to turn the stage on fullscreen.I'd like to know if anyone knows how to leave the fullscreen mode by button?I used this code for turning the fullscreen "on" on the opening button:[code]Then I tried turning the fscommand on the fullscreen "false" on the closing button, but it doesn't work.And btw, how can I make the "open" button appear if I use ESC?
View 3 RepliesI need to know all methods to exit from a fullscreen mode of a flash application on a touchscreen (because i want that people exit with my custom button).
I know that with a traditional desktop, ESC of the keyboard and double click with left button of the mouse allow to exit from fullscreen (like youtube).
I have a flash app that switches to full screen mode, but I cannot get it to leave fullscreen mode with the escape key!
I am using player version 10,0,2,54.
I have also gone to sites where the fullscreen mode is demo'd and I cannot exit out of fullscreen mode with the escape key there as well.
Is this a known bug in player 10?
I have a button that breaks you out into fullscreen mode.
If the user hits ESCAPE .. I need a way to detect that the application has broke out of fullscreen so I can reset the flash to frame 1 again.
I have a 100% width and height flash object in my site. Activating and exiting browser full screen mode with F11 only works as long the user didn't click the Flash movie. And I doubt many users know they have to click the address bar to enable F11 after using a (browser) full screen Flash movie.
View 1 RepliesI wanted to make a video player that has normal mode and fullscreen mode. The part I am having trouble understanding is how to handle the video once it gets set to fullscreen. Do I just use the current video or do I get a high quality version of the video to show during fullscreen mode? What would be best practice for this situation?

View 2 Repliesi am self-taught and i have pretty good as3 and mxml skills and have worked with Flash Pro and Flex, but only for my own stuff at home. i have only done local AIR stuff that don't require sending and getting data from a server now someone has asked if i could build him a kiosks/server system, and i want to dive into that the kiosks would be deployed in stores and have touchscreens displaying pictures, movies, banners and accept user control and data.i plan to build his remote controlling software in Flex and the kiosk AIR apps in Flex or Flash pro.the kiosks should periodically connect to the server to see if updates are available and download swf, jpeg and movie (mp4? flv?) files to the local filesystem (no live streaming is needed)also, user created data (forms only) should be sent to the server - i guess xml.[code]can all this be in as3 alone or do i need stuff like php also?also, would i be able in the controlling flex app to determine if specific kiosks are offline?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to follow along with a basic animation tutorial online using ActionScript. It mentions to switch to expert mode from normal mode, but says that to do this, I need to click on a blue arrow with a box around it(which I don't see anywhere)? Where would I click to switch to expert mode? Is expert mode needed to animate certain things(I'm working with a movie clip)?
View 1 RepliesWe are doing our second kiosk using Flash and Jugglor. The system uses a 1024x786 touch screen (15") for user input and a 1366x768 Flatscreen (37") for information display.The program is created in Flash with a stage that is 2390x768 (2390=1366+768) We use a 2-headed nVidia card and their drivers split the info onto the proper screens.Works swell! In this iteration, we are using more full-screen hi-def on the info screen and I can't, for the life of me, get a solid answer as to the best way to take advantage of hardware acceleration for hi-def video playback in the CPU (Intel/XP) or the graphics card.
I know that most DVD players are able to do this, but there is enough stammering on the flash playback to suggest that the video is not getting a full boost from the silicon.

I need to create a game for an interactive kiosk. The game is fairly basic, it will most likely be done in flash/AS3 (I believe this is the best choice for this kind of game) UNLESS the dual display requirement is far easier to accomplish with a different technology. The kiosk consists of two displays, both of which need to show separate content from within the same game. Here's the question: How can I (or anyone) create a flash game that utilizes two separate displays for different content? (This is not just a wider field of vision for the game, the two screens will show different things.)
My Idea (probably not the best):
Design the game on a canvas twice as wide as one of the monitors, then split the canvas in half and code the game to output different things to each half of the screen. Then run the monitors in "extended desktop" mode or something like that, and make sure that the split between the two desktops occurs in the middle of the game canvas. The two displays are being fed from the same machine and same graphics adapter. The whole "kiosk" is powered by one single machine.
I'm developing a kiosk in AS3 that utilizes StageVideo (publishing for FP 10.2 on a Mac Mini). It works fine, except as soon as StageVideo is engaged the mouse becomes visible. This is a public kiosk so I need the mouse to stay hidden.
View 1 RepliesI have looked all over, but I cannot find an example of this. I have a kiosk movie, and I want it to return to Frame 1 if no one uses it for a couple minutes. How to do this?
View 2 Repliesi have created a program in flash to run on several touchscreen kiosks here in my city. its a simple flash presentation and uses basic actionscript 2.0 for navigation etc. and its all working fine. now, the organizers want me to create a hit counter that can track how many people are using the kisosk services. so basically, each time someone hits the home button, a "hit" should be generated.
now i know of some scripts that use flash and PHP that can do that, but unfortunately i dont know how i can use it. The program that runs on the kisosks is just a flash file rendered as an exe and installed on the machines. i know basic PHP but as far as i am aware of, u need to run PHP through some HTML pages to be able to use it. besides, you would also need a php server to be able to get the hit counter working.
so my question is, is there a way to have the hits generated and stored in some kind of file (text, or xml or anything)? it has to be generated from within the swf file and stored to the (text, XML?) file.
I want to know how to design a Flash CS4(AS3) based kiosk application where the screen changes according to the user events(to change the screens like this). Preferably use xml to describe the application.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to create a web based welcome display for a building entrance. The project would include:
1) A wmv movie play constantly on the digital display until some visitors touch the screen (this can be played either locally or on the internet, but it has to be able to go to number 2 when visitors touch the screen)
2) A couple of buttons with department names show up for visitors to choose who they are here to see
3) After the visitor touch on one button, an email is sent to the department
4) the site should go back to the number 1) again
My experience is html, css, php, javascript, and some Flash, but I'm open to learn new skills. Can someone please suggest some good ways to build this site? Is there any tutorials or good sites I can learn from, that would be a bonus. Edit: so I'll use html5 and javascript. I have a couple of further questions, Since this is going to be a kiosk, the same movie is going to be played constantly, everytime after the customer has contacted us, the 'thank you' page is going to show briefly and go back to the first movie page. My question is how can I not let the movie load again and again everytime when there is a customer?
Because the local data space for the display is going to be limited. I've been thinking if I just create one page for the whole process and use a javascript slide to make each page as a div, so the movie div is going to be hiden so it doesn't need to be reloaded again, would that fix number 1) data space concern? I'm thinking of using a horizontal slide like [URL] How can I make the last div (thank you) to show about 5 secs and go to the first div (movie) again?
So I have a series of kiosks I'm converting to AS3. On one frame is an animated clip (serving as screensaver), and on the second frame is an interactive clip. Clicking the screensaver forwards to the interactivity.In AS2, I used to set a timeout for not clicking on the screen to go back to the animation frame like this (with this code on actions layer in second frame):
ActionScript Code:
var timeoutID:Number;
function timedOut () {

i am wondering from this code, it makes the stage full screen, does it also makes the content of my movieclips scaled to full screen? i have tried this code and it does not seem to do that, how can i make my content to scale to fill a stage's full screen? i have a Movieclip containing a background with a class to make special effects on the background, i am having trouble making the background be "fullscreened" nicely with the stage.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to setup a button to exit my swf.I used:
System.exit(0);
But always get the error:
SecurityError: Error #2018: System.exit is only available in the standalone Flash Player. at flash.system::System$/exit() at menu_fla::MainTimeline/sair_fc()
How should I do this?
I have installed the CS3 on a Dell workstation with Windows XP SP3 and when I try to exit when finished, Flash will not exit. It seems like it is trying but will not close. There is no error, the program just sits there. You have to right click on the program and click close to get it to close. Then the program wants to send a error.

I tried different ways to do this (tried to see when the stagedisplaystate was normal with a timer checking that every millisecond, tried to use a keypress and keydown on esc key, tried to use event listener with fullscreenevent) and every single one of those appeared with an error. flash builder 4 didn't even let me use some functions and events that worked on other people (I searched different forums). there was always an error there. its the only thing that isn't working on my player and I need it for school.
I have a Template that I bought for a client that wanted it. It has background looping music and my customer wants to add videos (FLV), no problem. Now she wants the background music to sop when the FLVs are playing and start when I exit the FLV and go to another portion of the site. I hope I am being clear.
I need the background music to sop playing when the FLV videos are playing. I have Google and found nothing really.
