projector question

[takshaka]

Hi,

I have been tasked with creating a little flash thingy to go on a DVD as an autorun that does a few things like link to the clients website.

I have a few questions that i would be super grateful if someone could help me out with;

- can i remove the flash player housing (skin) from my projectore .exe (i dont want to see the "file / View" etc or the border, i just want the stage to be seen.

- i want to set the screen location of the projector. When it loads up I want it to be in the center of the screen

- how can i force the projector to allways be on top of any open windows

- if i create a mac projector file, is there anyway of getting it to autorun?

many many thanks for any help..

you'll need to use a 3rd party utility like this one:

and I believe you cannot AutoStart on Mac OS-X these days...

for the menu thing thingy, use

fscommand("showmenu", "false");

for the center thing thingy, you`ll find more information here

[i`ve tried fscommand exe like they say there, but in flash 8 it didn`t work with a parameter, so i did another exe in c++ builder that called on center.exe with a parameter, and than i called that exe from flash]

Thanks alexxxis,
I am trying to control the position of my flash projector window or to make it be 80% of fullscreen. Is that possible? Does it require one of the wrapper programs or are there ways to do it without having to purchase new software.

I'm using Flash 8.

I also want the window to respond to the user hitting Escape to make it move to the left and down so they can see the X to close the window. Right now if they hit Esc, the window moves to the right and down and they can't see the window buttons. I have removed the menu so that is not an option.

Thanks,
Denise
