I have a fullscreen flash .exe file. I want to be able to use the fscommand "execute" to launch an application "in front of" the fullscreen without escaping from the fullscreen. So it's like fullscreen with popups. I don't think it can be done, and some extensive research backs up my hunch, but I thought I'd run it by here and see if anyone has accomplished this.

View 1 Replieshow to open a PDF in Flash CS5 that will launch into a popup browser window. In CS3/CS4 I used the "geturl" command and it worked perfect. In CS5, the geturl command always wants to open a url (ex. [URL]) instead of a local file on my drive. Is there any way around this to make it work like the older versions of Flash? Basically stop it from trying to launch the [URL]?
View 9 RepliesGo to [URL]. Click on "The Photos". It will pop up in a fullscreen window. Try resizing the window and you'll notice that the background is vector and it looks like the scale mode is set to "showAll". BUT, the photos look like they have a separate scale mode set to "noScale". They don't resize.
View 2 RepliesGot a client who wants to launch a separate browser automatically - no clicks. An example would be the lingerie site (do I have your attention?) <B>***www.laperla.com***</B> where it does a Flash check and loads a thank you - the popup giving you the English or Italian option. BTW, this is a very cool site - a little out-dated, but worth a look.Is this an onclipEvent? What's the actionscript here? I am assuming that the page from which it is launched has the usual newWindow function JS in the HTML ref'ed in the getURL("javascript:newWindow... of the Flash, blah, blah, but how do you get it to pop the getURL on its own?

View 3 RepliesI've created an AIR application in Flash CS4 with AS3, and the application needs to start up as fullscreen. I put a slight delay on the fullscreen call to get around the fact that flash won't let you start an application in fullscreen. This works fine on windows. However, on Mac, my application has an issue...
It uses this code to go fullscreen on startup: var fullscreen_delay:Timer=new Timer(10,1);// delay to bypass flash's non-fullscreen-on-startup feature
[Code]...
Putting a ridiculously long delay on the fullscreen call (5000 milliseconds) seems to do the trick. I realized this when I launched the application and immediately started mashing the space bar (my fullscreen toggle key), which kept presenting me with the same issue until after 3 or 4 seconds, at which point the fullscreen began working properly.

View 10 RepliesI have a preloader that measures the size of the external swf, then goes to a frame with a 'launch site' button on it. When the button is clicked, I'd like a popup window to open that is the exact size of the swf file (1100x800), but I can't figure out how to do that. I know there is some combination of AS3 and javascript required. Has anyone done this? I cannot attach the preloader file that launches the external swf since this is my first post, but have it available if anyone wants it. I also have the site online for viewing as it is currently (just loads then opens in same window)

View 1 RepliesI'm making an interactive cd in flash, I'm wondering how I can prompt the user with a way of saving video files (.mp4) to their computers.
Ideally they would click on a 'download video' button and then would be prompted with the usual window allowing them to choose where to save the file and name it.
Is there a way to do this within flash?
I've been using fscommand to launch files, can it be used to save files as well?
I'm having a new problem getting a new browser window to open in front of the current window. They are now opening behind and unless the viewer is smart enough to think of it and see the tab they think it didn't open. I use the recommended code. on (release) {getURL ("nameofURL.html", "_blank" );}I'm pretty sure this used to open a browser window that appeared in front of the current one, but now it never seems to although once in a while it may (that was with a file with an htm extension.)

What is supposed to happen is that the popup should open in a new smaller window whilst the original window keeps displaying the flash file. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there a better way to go about this? NOTE: I know that you can call JavaScript functions and house your js in the HTML file, but I cannot edit the HTML file since it is a page from a remote site.
