Flash MovieClip To Automatically Go Full Browser In Chrome?
Aug 12, 2011
I want my SWF to fill the browser window, but it's not working in Chrome/FireFox unless the user manually resizes the browser. I'm using Adobe's default, generated html + swfobject.js to show my SWF. In the html, I replaced all flashcontent heights and widths with 100%. Unfortunately, in Chrome when you first open the page the Flash MovieClip doesn't fill the browser and instead retains it's default height and width.
If the user resizes the browser window, everything works fine. Is there a javascript trick or something I can do to make the Flash think it's being resized? I never want scrollbars to appear. I want my application to scale and fill the browser window perfectly -- I want it to get really small if the browser is small and really big if the browser is big. Basically, I want my app to run like a normal Windows app, such as Visual Studio, but in a browser.

I am working on a Flash app that is 900x700 pixels. When viewed in misc. browsers at 1024x768, the browser chrome causes robs too much of the vertical space and the app appears in a window with a vertical scrollbar. Unacceptable.
The flash app will be launched via a link emailed to the viewers.
I'd like to avoid resizing the flash app and am wondering if there's a way to do the following via javascript, with no clicks involved:maximize the current browser window remove current window address bar and tabs / switch browser to full screen view (equivalent to pressing F11).
An alternative would be to resize the flash app vertically to match the browser canvas height to avoid scrolling. This may cause the app to become unreadable, so not the best approach in my case.
UPDATE: Seems that browser resizing and autoswitch to full screen won't work and neither will the flash app auto resize. What is the best approach then? And, some users may have browsers with toolbars or open a small browser window.
The only idea I have is to use javascript and display a message to users with small browser windows to pres F11 manually. The audience is executes and some may not even know what an F11 means...

I 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 have a full browser image slideshow. It works fine. I have a top menu with some buttons and with each one of them I would like to load a new slideshow swf on top of the existing one while still using the full browser layout. Is it possible to load the new external swf so that it will match the size of the first one? I have been trying numerous times...and the new swf I load always appears offset.

I have a strange issue where Flash Player in Chrome is not updating unless the browser is resized. The app is an online design tool, written in Flex, and one of the features allows the user to upload an image and crop it. The image loads fine, and the crop action does not reload the image but uses Bitmap.copyPixels to create the cropped version.When I test on localhost (though a local server not just straight from the file system) the issue does not happen. However on our QA server the image does not appear unless you resize the browser, when I suppose a screen refresh is forced.I've tried all the usual suspects in AS3/Flex to force a redraw, updateAfterEvent, invalidateDisplayList, etc.we came up with is to resize the browser by a pixel, but this is obviously not ideal and I'd prefer a solution to a work-around.Here's the Bitmap code for reference...
var cropData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( _crop.width, _crop.height );
var originalData:BitmapData = new BitmapData( _loader.width, _loader.height );
originalData.draw( _loader );[code]....

I am using an external preloader (loader.swf) to load the movie (ayproj.swf). The preloader works fine when running the .swf file in flash player and when simulating a download in flash cs5 but when i upload it to the internet and open the index.html in which the flash is in a 100% frame it either sticks on 100% (Ff and IE) or just says "pl" (chrome) - the initial text in the dynamic percentage text box.

I am designing a fairly simple site made up of a swf (AS3) in an html page. I'm relatively new to it all, but was doing ok until recently! The problem I have is this: The swf within the html loads perfectly from my local drive in all browsers, but when published to the remote server does not display correctly in Safari or Chrome... It is fine in Firefox.
To see it correctly, use Firefox and the link below. To see it fail at the preloader (in fact, it distorts the design of the pre-loader and goes no further) use Chrome or Safari. [URL] The site is unfinished, so there are other issues you may find which I am solving, but this is the one of concern.

I have about 50-100 flash elements on a page which are audio players that play only one audio each that are different from each other.Whenever a user clicks one of the player buttons, the audio either streams or loaded as a single mp3.I would like to know how browsers handle swf or audio that is on a page. If 50 of the players are clicked at 10mb each and not all at once, then I can imagine that there would be 500mb stored in the browser eventually as cache.If the browser only has 100mb to cache, how does it work? Does it delete the other swf or audio in cache or does it cause issues to the browser such as crashing or slowing down the computer, etc.

I am working in Flash CS3 and Actionscript 3.0 My application resizes according to browser width and height. If the user first resizes the browser and then loads the flash application, I could not get the full browser width untill the user goes for full screen. Is there any way around, to get the full browser width before the user goes for full screen.

I'm pretty new to Flash but working it out. Just one question: how does one make it so the Flash animation automatically resizes depending on the resolution of the user's screen? I made a site with a Flash video that looks perfect on my screen, but when my friend with a different resolution goes to it, evertyhing is out of whack..

I need to use full screen mode in my flash application, for some reason when i go into full screen mode in safari or chrome, the stage is completely disabled. I tried using a very clean swf file with nothing on it, just 2 buttons: one for full screen and the other for normal screen, and still i can't click on anything after going into full mode. In IE and FF everything works fine

I have a few online magazines I run and I have noticed that when in full screen mode in Google Chrome, all my buttons, everything is disabled I just have a 'hand' for a mouse and nothing works.
My fullscreen option works on all other browsers its only Google Chrome it seems to of disabled any user interaction whilst in full screen mode.
I have tried searching but cant find any similar problems, and need this fixed ASAP. You Tube works in full screen mode on Google Chrome, so it cant just be a Google Chrome bug. Maybe there are some added security features you have to code for in Google Chrome.
Here is a link, make sure you are using Google Chrome or you wont replicate the error.
Try the navigation on the top bar, then click full screen top left, then notice how no buttons work anymore.

My flash program isn't using the full browser window, even while in full-screen mode. It uses the full height but not the full width. I end up with a large chunk of white space. I have the following code for full-screen mode:

So the problem is that the stage's width isn't the full size of the browser. I'm using Flash Builder 4.6 is there a way to set the stage's parameters to allow for true full-screen?
