ActionScript 2.0 :: Fscommand Fullscreen On Dual Monitor OSX Setup
Apr 17, 2003
i just installed an ati radeon7000 32 bit graphics card into my G4 tower so i can run 2 monitors--what i want to do is have my small monitor serve as the desktop where i can control what is being viewed on the second monitor: when the small monitor is set in the control panel as being the menu bar, then when a .swf or projector set to 'fullscreen' launches, it fills the screen on the small monitor but not the second monitor.
how can i set it so that whatever is launched from the small screen will appear in the second/larger monitor? (i want the menu bar and dock to be on the small monitor, so that it is hidden from view on the second monitor) i know i can do this in javascript, but i'd like to keep it on the desktop without having to use a browser-- using the fscommand to set the xy coords, or somehow target the second monitor?

I have an AIR application that will go full screen when the application starts:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE; The stage size is 2560 x 1024. And I have 2 moniters (1280 x 1024 , 1280 x 1024) When I start the application, it shows my application on one of my moniter only.
I need the left side of the stage to be shown in moniter 1 and right side of the stage to be shown in moniter 2. Currently, both sides are shown in moniter 1, and in moniter 2, it shows nothing but my default desktop. *The blue color line is a divider for better visual purpose. How do I make the left side of the stage to appear in moniter 1 and right side of the stage to appear in moniter 2 when the application starts in full screen mode?

How do I get the dimensions of the monitor the user is watching the video with if they have dual monitors? If I use this --
mc_videoDisplay.height = (Capabilities.screenResolutionY - 26);
mc_videoDisplay.width = Math.floor(mc_videoDisplay.height * 16 / 9);
it's only using the primary monitor so it's all out of whack if they're watching on the extended monitor.

The project is a keyframe based presentation and I'm an actionscript novice. It is to run, full screen, as an executable off a CD ROM and there are 4 .flvs in the executable. Here is my code for the first frame which contains opening video, and it works fine (sadly a simple fscommand fullscreen from as2 won't work). Problem is, I get black screens & weirdness when I try to use stageDisplayState and fullScreenTakeOver's on the frames that contain the other 3 videos.

I'm making a flash movie project, the stage size is 600x800. When I use fscommand to make the flash projector fullscreen it shows everything, including out of stage things. How do I get the projector to only show the stage Fullscreen? PS: An answer in AS 3.0 would be fine to! As 2 is preferable!

I have a problem with Flash Player 9. I have developed a flash application (projector) in Flash CS3 using AS2 . I can compile it into Flash 9 projector, but when I do that, it will not run FSCOMMAND("FULLSCREEN", true); anymore. I wonder why this is as such.
When I read through some help resources, somewhere it says that FSCOMMAND is not supported in FP9 because of some security reasons and it says that I should use External Interface API instead.
If I have to use External Interface whatever remember that I am working with flash projector (exe), not in a browser. I use "trapallkeys" to stop people from pressing ESC and CTRL-F to quit fullscreen mode. However, ESC and CTRL-F still work if I put "trapallkeys" above "fullscreen".
So the problem is, I only able to use either one, not both. This is really strange.
I could not make "showmenu", "false" to work either.

I prepared a footer for a website and have the following issue:There are two buttons on footer bar that interests us. One is fullscreen - clicked activates fscommand function. But fscommand works only when I debug my fla. Otherwise, nothing happens. There's an additional variable that shows if fullscreen is active - nothing happens.There's also a "coder" info. I wanted to use navigateToURL function for "mailto:..." adress, but nothing happens, even if if changed it to [URL] adress. Also debugger doesn't activate it.I tested it in browser, completely nothing happens. There's the code, works without any "addons":

I have an FLVPlayback component instance on my stage, into which I load videos based on button presses. When I create a .swf of my project though, if I use
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
fscommand("allowscale", "false");
I get unexpected behavior. What should happen is the file loads, everything is centered, and the area around the project is whatever the background color is.This sort of works .. until the first FLV is played. The FLV gets scaled to 100% (fullscreen)and if I hit "esc" I go back to the "normal" sized player, but if I then maximize the window (almost the same as fullscreen), the entire flash player now decides to scale, not just the FLV playback component
I'd like to be able to have my windows projector file to take up the entire screen when it's loaded (without being scaled), but this doesn't seem possible. Any ideas what's going on? Regarding the FLVPlayback component, I've tried everything to make it fit and not scale ....set height, width, set scale to "noScale", set registrationHeight, registrationWidth, etc. Nothing works.

I'm creating a presentation in Flash that will be projected onto a large screen. I'm using fscommand("fullscreen", true) to make it fullscreen. Since I don't know in advance what type of playback monitor will be used, apparently there may be some issue with the monitor ratio not being 4:3 which would make it widescreen. I was told to make sure the animation etc extends beyond the Stage frame so that it accommodates widescreen but I'm not sure how to do this - I mean how do you know how far beyond the stage to extend things? Since I don't have access to the playback monitor I can't test on it and the presentation will eventually be put onto a CD ROM where viewers may have all types of monitors.

I am trying to decide what is going to be the best option to use for this scenario, Zinc or Adobe Air.I have a client who needs a backend touchscreen panel with a few buttons which, when pressed on will start a video on a dual screen setup on the other monitor.Using Zinc, will I be able to create two Exe files, one exe to host the backend "control panel" and the other exe to host the video player where the video will be played and will they be able to talk to one another. So if I press stop in the control panel, the video needs to stop in the other exe.

I'm assuming this is flatly impossible, but has anyone ever heard of or seen a way to implement dual-audio output from within a browser, a la DJ software (user's hardware allowing)? Anything in Flash? Google searches don't seem to be giving me any love on this...

I'm trying to find information in how or if it it possible to declare a Variable Type that can accomodate 1 of 2 different Types In this particular case I'd like to set a Variable able to accept either Integrals or Strings I know i Can use a wildcard as below and it works, but it also allows for any other type to be added.
private var _destination:*;
My first Thought was something like this
private var _destination:String^int;
private var _destination:String|int;
Unfortunatly this does not work

I use a dual-boot computer, with one partition for Linux (Debian) and one for Windows XP. I can't use Flash on Linux as Adobe has never ported it to that platform. So I put my Flash on the Windows partition.Unfortunately, while I have no trouble with Flash 8 on the Windows partition, when I attempt to open Flash 9 on it it crashes the entire system.
My husband found an article in the Winter 2009-2010 issue of 2600, the Hacker Quarterly magazine; it seems that in CS3, which Flash 9 is part of, Adobe has written its copy protection code in such a way as to cause a dual-boot machine to become unbootable after one uses Adobe software.I don't understand all the technical issues, but as the article states, "even though you have paid Adobe real money for their software, they will still potentially ruin your dual-boot system."
I realize Adobe doesn't consider Linux users numerous enough to accommodate,but by taking my money for their product,the company has an obligation to give me value in return.The value I expect is to be able to use the software I paid for - it's not up to Adobe to decide which OS I should use.At least they could warn people that you can't use CS3(and probably not CS4) on a dual-boot system.I will now start learning to use Inkscape immediately.

i am currently developing a standalone video application that will interact with our backend database and display the proper video, video title, video description and color scheme that you choose.Everything's working hunky dory, until I asked some of cohorts to see if they could break it before I show it off to the world. On the very first try, when my colleague went to full screen, the video was distorted, cut off by the bounds of the monitor, and not perfectly centered as it has been performing on my monitor.
And then it hit me... He was opening the browser in one of his computer's monitors, bringing the browser to the other monitor (we all have a dual monitor thing going on here), and THEN clicking the full screen button.I noticed that when you refresh the page, the variables I get to determine the fullscreen dimensions are being set, but NOT on EnterFrame.
After quickly changing this little glitch, I saw that the variables are still not being changed when you drag your browser window from one monitor to the other (hopefully they are set at two different resolutions, otherwise it defeats the purpose of even checking for this)how I can get my Flash application to recognize when it has entered into a new resolution.

im trying to make a game that requires you to have the spacebar and the right arrow key pressed to make the character move. However i just cant seem to link the 2 key presses together. when the keys are pressed individually it works and when theyre pressed together it works but i want the character to be inactive until both are down at the same time :/
i've tried everything that i can think of (which is kinda limited) i thought id cracked it with a 'while' statement but when i tested it flash would throw a fit and close heres the code that flash doesnt like, it looks (to me) like it should work but it clearly doesnt :P

onClipEvent (load) {
_x = 0;
_y = 0;

Has anyone seen a Flash video player out there that will load and play two videos at the same time, such as for comparing videos? A potential client is looking for something along the lines of this. I've not been able to locate anything out there,and I'm wondering if there's a usability reason for this...Obviously, you wouldn't want the audio playing for both at the same time, and the bandwidth issue for something like this might be a concern too. My feeling is that you wouldn't want to restrict a user to just playing both videos at once, but give them the option to play them separately or at the same time, with controls for each audio and playback.

I am using the FlvPlayback class to show movies. The full screen feature works since I am just calling the method defined in the class. My issue is whenever I make it full screen on a computer that has 2 monitors, the full screen flash player always ends up in the primary monitor. When that happens, I notice that the location where the flash player was in the other monitor is empty. How do I prevent this from happening and force the video player to remain in the monitor it was originally in?

I like to make a fullscreen desktop application, with an FLV, using the FLV Playback component. However, I�d like there to be a Fullscreen button on the playback component, which will allow the user to toggle the video fullscreen.I cant, for the life of me, figure out how to do this with various settings�it should be easy! This is what I have--is there a better way to do things (without a custom movie player)? My inital settings are as follows:
Code:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
theMovie.fullScreenTakeOver = false;
Then I have a function which should work--but my button won't appear in fullscreen--Can I apply this function to the built-in fullscreen button?:
Code:
function handleClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
if ( !theMovie.fullScreenTakeOver )[code]....

What I've done is created a "fullscreen SWF" by using ActionScript to stretch a movie clip (yellow rectangle) in the background to fill the whole browser frame. The navigation is positioned in the upper left using ActionScript also; when the user resizes the window, positions are adjusted so the nav always stays in the upper left. (Adapting the technique from http:[url]....
External SWFs are loaded from an XML file into a blank movie clip on a layer that is between the yellow background and the navigation (adapting the kirupa XML Photo Gallery). Here's my problem: I want to be able to create full screen backgrounds for these external SWFs so when they are loaded into the main SWF they cover up all the of yellow background of the main clip. Also if the user resizes the window, I hope like the main SWF, the background on the external SWF can also resize to match.
If you press next twice to get to item three for example, I want to be able to stretch that orange box to fill the entire background. You'll notice if you resize the window on the third item, the orangle rectangle will adjust, it's just not correct.

why the below line of code launches notepad.exe twice?
fscommand("execfile", '"C:\Windows\Notepad.exe"'); //opens notepad 2x - path in double quotes
verses this line of code which opens it only once?
fscommand("execfile", "C:\Windows\Notepad.exe"); //opens notepad once
I'm working on a FP10 .exe projector project and noticed this odd behavior.If I had spaces in my file path, I'd want to surround it in double quotes, but that has the undesired effect of opening the app 2x.Since I don't have full control over all the elements in the project, I'm forced to use fscommand in this scenario.
