Alrighty I now plan to use this thread to ask questions that I can not figure out after extensive searching. Feel free to ignore me or move the thread, I don't really know where this fits. First question! How the heck to do I get rid of the window chrome? I've read a lot in liveDocs but it doesn't seem to be something I can put into the mxml file.

[code]So that just pops a new tab, I need a new window, am I going to have to get overly complicated using externalInterface and JS just to achieve this simple task?
View 4 Repliesat some point during the development of this app it stopped appearing immediately in chrome, I need to resize the window to get it to appear, then then everything works fine. This doesnt happen in IE, Firefox, Mozilla.
View 4 RepliesI'm working on a page that has some ads on it. One of them loads in an ad with wmode=window.I don't have the ability to change that flash code. I need to put a modal box on top of that flash element, but every combination of using z-indexes and iframe shims has failed (both manually and using bgiframe). Is there a way to place html content on top of a flash element with wmode=window? I'm testing this in chrome so far.
View 2 RepliesI have a simple HTML file which embeds a Flash file. On the page styling I have a #flashContent with width:100% and height:100%; the Flash object itself has width="100%" and height=100% and is inside a div with id="flashContent". The idea is to make the Flash object (which is a game) to fill the whole browser window even as it resizes.
This works with no problems on IE and Firefox, but there is a small problem on Chrome. About 90% of the time when the page first loads all that is shown is black (the page's background color). The game only appears if the user resizes the window; from then on out it works correctly.
I'd like to ask if there is anything I am doing wrong or if there is an workaround to ensure the Flash game appears correctly on the Chrome browser.
I'm working on a Google Chrome extension that monitors mouse events. For some reason the following javascript code in the extension's content script is causing embedded Flash content to break:
[Code]...
If you mousedown inside a Flash element, it never registers the mouseup and it appears as though you're still holding your mouse button down even though you've let go. At first I thought it was some kind of event bubbling issue, that this method was swallowing the event, so I tried returning true (and false for that matter) but it didn't seem to have any effect.
If I open up my site in google chrome [URL] and click and card, then preview, then full preview it goes to full screen mode.
Here is where it gets messed up. The cursor now seems locked in whatever state it was last. Sometimes a hand cursor, sometimes a resize cursor, sometimes just a pointer. Then when I exit out of fullscreen it stays in that state.
It doesn't change on button rollover or if you click terms at the bottom the edges are supposed to be a resize cursor. Even after hiding the mouse icon it still doesn't change!
I have a Adobe Air app (AS3, not Flex) that has 2 windows. When I click away from them onto another desktop program, I get an "Deactivate" Event (as you would expect).When I click on say Window#1 I get an "Activate" Event (as you would expect).But when I go from Window#1 to Window#2, I get nothing. And I believe this is because the Air application is still the active program, Just a Different Window.
But I have the need to know when I go from 1 window to another.The horrible solutions I have come up with so far is to have an onEnterFrame and check if the current window is the active window. But I would much prefer to do it a much better way that such a hack.I have gone though Stage, NativeApplication and Native Window Events and none of them do what I need. Can anyone point me to another Event I may have overlooked?

View 1 RepliesI am trying to change title of main window, but without luck.
I tried use external call and javascript, but it always shows, that Adobe Flash Player stopped, because of security. Same with getURL. I am trying to implement website into my .NET application, so It's unacceptable to have these errors.
I would like to know, how to change title via ActionScript 2.0 or 3.0.

View 2 RepliesI cannot seem to get the following to work:
In flash (as2):
Actionscript Code:
getURL("JavaScript:changeTitle('Hello!')");
in browser:
PHP Code:
<script language="javascript">
<!--
function changeTitle(t){
[Code]....
The result is - the page title stays the same, there are no errors - but i do get an alert that says "changed! Hello!" So the function is being fired, and the variable is being sent. It just will not change the page title.
If i call the function in javascript - so just under the function add - changeTitle("good") - it works fine, changing the title.
I am working on a application in Flash AS3 with MDM ZINC 4 and I have to dynamically change the window property to be from a standard window in a transparent style with no border, and from there in a masked style window.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to get the sprite overlay to stick to the edges of the stage when I resize the swf window. It works when you resize the width, but not the height.
ActionScript Code:
stage.align = StageAlign.LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
var s:Sprite = new Sprite();
s.graphics.beginFill(0x000000);
s.graphics.drawRect(0,0,stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);

what to call the subject of this post, but here's the scenario...I have sounds playing in a browser window via my SWF file.When I open a new application window (browser window (etc.)) above the SWF's window,the sound continues to play in the back.Is there any way to detect when a user changes focus from the SWF window to a another? My goal is to silence these wacky sounds when the Flash isn't the current focus.
View 1 RepliesI'm a bit of a newbie, wondering how this scaling effect is possible. See www.sagmeister.com - when you scale your browser window, the entire site interactively shrinks or enlarges to fit. How is this done with Flash MX? Is it a publishing option or an actionscript or what?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to place a popup window (TitleWindow) in the middle of the main application window. how do i set the coordinates of my popup window to be of the main application window? i tried the localToGlobal function but with no luck, I just can't get the main window x and y.
View 3 RepliesSo I have this AIR app coded in flex where I have several floating native windows and what I want is to detect when a user clicks outside of a window so that I can close it. (I don't want to use the PopupManager Class and would want to use the native windows).
My question is, is there a way to detect a click outside of a spark window, or alternativley is there some root container/object which is a parent to all the native windows so that a click inside any native window would bubble up to it? (Apparently the stage object of the root windowed application is not that object since each window is not a child of the stage for the root application).
How to access main window's variable from popup window.
I create a popup window in the main window, and pass variable "content" to this popup window as following [code]...
I created a Flash application that reads POST data from a form. A user clicks the button, and the data gets posted to the flash app in a new window (_blank). Now takes the data and then spins a wheel to give users a prize. If they don't win a message pops up letting them know they didn't win. If they don't win, clicking the OK button needs to close the browser window.
I've tried a number of solutions and it seems that the only way to get this done is to launch the window with javascript and then use ExternalInterface.call('window.close'); to close the window from within the Flash actionscript (3) because otherwise the window won't close (I've tried just using window.close and window.close() with no luck)
I understand how to launch a new window with javascript, but I don't know how to simultaneously launch and POST data to that window (the Flash application has to have the POST data. Is this the best solution? Is there a way to close a browser window easier than what I'm describing?[URL]
I'm trying to create a pop up window in Flash which also fades the background window to 75% black. When the user closes the pop up window, I'd like for the parent window to un-fade back to normal. Is this possible? I can do the first half of it and make the background window fade to 75% black. The difficult thing is making it fade back to normal when the user closes the pop up window.My thoughts are that I need to attach some code to the browser's built in close window button. It might require some javascript or a fscommand. I'm not sure.
