I'm making some executable / projector files in Flash CS5. Using CS4 I was able to stop the menu appearing by using flash.system.fscommand("showmenu", "false");
It doesn't work in CS5. Is it a bug? Or a feature? It's incredibly annoying - how do I get rid of the menu without resorting to an external projector program or without having to use AIR?
Is it possible to hide the title bar in a CS4 Flash Projector?
I've tried using Goldshell's Versiown and although that changes the icon and will disable the right-click menu, the hide title bar options don't have any effect.
My project is made from multiple SWF files. I'm able to create .app from the main SWF file. Is it possible to put the related files into the .app directory structure? Where should be placed? Into .app/Contents/Resources/? Would it be possible to access these files using some relative path to this location from the main SWF?

View 2 RepliesI have Mac Pro OSX 10.58 - CS 4 Creative Suite.I have been using Flash to produce projector files totally fine for months. However, today when I publish a Mac projector file I have come across a problem. Flash publishes a .app projector file OK, but, when I open it, it appears in the dock as if it were open but I don't see anything.
Any projector files I produced prior to today still play fine. But any projector files I have created today have the previously mentioned problem. I have tried creating a totally new FLA and publishing from that incase it was the FLA I was publishing from was to blame - same problem.
I have reinstalled Flash, but the error persists.Today I also installed new software. I installed the Developer tools because I wanted to use PackageMaker. I also installed Xray. I have removed Xray incase that was at fault - but the problem still persists.
How to hide menu item from Menu object ?
View 1 RepliesBasically, I have a button and on click it displays a menu. I want to click that menu a second time and the menu closes. Currently, every time you click the button, the menu reopens. I pasted the Flex livedoc example below. If you click the button, the menu keeps reopening.Now, I rigged it up by setting a var to open and closed, so when clicking the button it does a check. However, if you click away from the screen, the HIDE event gets dispatched, and the menu closes. This messed up the open close var being set.
How could I make this Flex example below show the menu on button click, and then on a second button click, it closes the menu? Take into affect that if you click away from the menu, it closes it.Also, I played around with the MOUSE_DOWN_OUTSIDE event for the button and set the preventDefault, and the FlexMouseEvent event.cancelable is set to false.Changing to a PopUpMenuButton is not an option. I have to much skinning involved.Here is the Flex example:
<mx:Script>

View 4 RepliesI am using flash 8 or flash mx, and I want to open a web site and some pdf files. I have my projector set to fullscreen but when I open a web site or a pdf file these files open behind my projector so my final user doesn't realize that the pdf files or the web site is displayed. How can I force the web site or the pdf file to open on top of my projector or is there a way to minimize my projector when I click these buttons so the user realizes that these files opened.

I have a main presentation file with 3 external movies that load into the main file. The SWF version works great. Our clients use PC's so I publish my files as windows projector files (exe). Problem is when I give them a CD of all 4 files, when they click on the main presentation file it doesn't load the external movies.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI've written quite a bit of code around flash's webcam and just found out it doesn't work in the projector files (standalone .exe or .app files). I figure it's a security issue? The security panel asking for access to the webcam/microphone doesn't even show up.
All works fine with just the .swf file, except for full screen mode. This project will be in a museum, so it needs to run full screen, and use the webcam to scan in drawn images on paper.
how to get the webcam to work on a stand alone projector file? Or perhaps how to get the .swf to play full screen? I still need keyboard input to be available to take camera snapshots too btw

View 11 RepliesI have a projector published from Mac into two formats: Mac and Windows. The main movie loads an intro flv, and it has a button to skip which loads another swf.When I run the .app in MacOS, it works fine. The video is displayed and the button jumps to the mentioned swf. However, when running the .exe in Windows, no video is showed and the button does nothing.I think it's a path problem. I'm using relative ones, and have tried in all forms:
./video/myvideo.flv

I'm trying to show and hide a sub menu. So what I want to do is for the sub menu to show up and stay up if certain buttons are clicked, but disappear if other buttons are clicked. I've got an array of the sub menu. If any of the buttons are clicked from the sub menu array, it should stay.
var subMenu:Boolean=false;
This is my sub menu array:
var arrSub:Array=[m8_mcButton,m9_mcButton,m10_mcButton,m11_mcButton,m12_m cButton,m13_mcButton,m14_mcButton];
When a button is clicked, I want to check to see if the sub menu is showing and to check which button has been clicked. This is the code I came up with, but unfortunately, doesn't work...
function onButtonClick(e:MouseEvent):void {
for (i=0; i<arrSub.length; i++) {
if (subMenu && e.currentTarget!=arrSub[i]) {
arrSub[i].y=-130;
subMenu=false;
}}

On the menu I want to have normal buttons but the problems is when I move the mouse over the buttons (Which are ontop of the menu) it thinks I want to hide the menu.
I am creating a menu this way :
myMenu = Menu.createMenu( null, myMenuXMLListCollection, false );
and then showing it with :
myMenu.popup( 10, 10 );
but the menu doesn't disappear automatically when i click somewhere outside the menu.
Is there some way to make the menu disappear automatically when i click outside it ?
I would like to add a "show/hide" command to an item in this menu.For instance:

<item name="home-2" action="gotoURL" variables="http://www.kirupa.com" show="false"/>
