Show all Script

[webtech2000]

Hi all,

Is there a swf command or script that will force the swf file to “Show All” (not 100%). The full screen FScommand works fine but my project changes the screen to (100%) when playing a video (at 100%) and I need to change it back after it finishes playing via a button with a script.

My project is not in html, I only use the stand alone projector to play my swf files.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated

Kind regards

Clive

P.S. Did Johnnie get his action script tutorial completed?

I'm not sure what you mean by "show all"? Can you explain this better?

Sorry about that,
When the swf file is open (on the hard drive), right click on it, you can view it on the menu list.
I have created the swf file size at 800x600 which plays ok on the same res screen, but when I use 1024x768 screen res, my swf returns to (100%) after playing a swf movie.
If it would make it easier, I can upload an example of what I am trying to do.

Thanks for your time

Kind regards

Please do, I kinda understand what you're saying but a visual would be better.

Hi FLASHPULSE,

Here is a sample to help explain what I am trying to do.

Thanks for your support :D

Name your current index filew to movie 2 or something. Then make a new index file that only loads movie 1 and 2. This way they can both be loaded at fullscreen. Make them both load at the same level, so one just replacesw the other when loaded. I think that should do it.

Hi FLASHPULSE,

Thanks for your help, unfortunately I could not get it to respond correctly, can you post or email me a working sample please.

As I have been trying to get this to work for about two weeks now (I never give up), I am more than happy to pay you or someone to solve this problem for me as I understand you guys do a lot of work “just for free”.

I look forward to any help

Kind regards

This is the only way I could figure how to do it. I had to add frames to the index files. On frame 3, I imported movie1 as an editable swf, inside of a movie clip. When you go to frame 3, it goes to window mode but when you click the back button, it goes back to fullscreen. I don't think this is what you were looking for but I'll try to see what I can do tomorrow.

Hi FLASHPULSE,

Thanks for the file and you are right, it’s not what I am looking for, but every avenue needs to be explored in order to find the answers. I do not want to complicate things but I have over 300 short .swf movies that will play directly from CD through my KM project , all I need to do is over come this screen res problem and I will be a happy man.

I have tried many different ways of running movie1.swf but with the same result, I wish you luck.

Just one idea I have had that just may work:

I can create two swf files (index1.swf) that will run on 800x600 and (index2.swf) the other that will run on 1024x768 and all my movies will run and play correctly on both screen res.
Can you create a file (.exe or .swf) that checks the end users screen res settings and then loads or executes (index1.swf or index2.swf) depending on the end users settings?.

Thanks again for taking the time to help

Kind Regards

Clive

You could use something like Multimedia Builder (http://mediachance.com) and embed your flash presentations within it.

I have MMB and could help you with this if you'd like.

Thanks Bret

I appreciate your kind offer, I just may take you up on that.
I am downloading MMB now and will give it a try, it looks like a top program.

Kind regards
