Hi to all,

I used the fscommand("fullscreen",true) in my application to make it
fullscreen. However when the user presses the Escape key, the window goes into
the normal view. Is there any way of disabling the Escape key to make my movie
in fullscreen all the time? and the only way to quit the movie is my clicking
the label I created 'Exit' with the AS command fscommand("quit");

Thanks for all the help

Add: fscommand("trapallkeys",true);

Also, I believe FlashJester (costs money) gives you even more control on that kind of stuff.

Thanks NSurveyor.

Another, is there a way for me to send a picture to the clipboard with text on
it?

And also can I make my text bold, italize, or underline so when the user paste
it to other editor the text is also formatted?

Thanks once again!

You're welcome.

Sorry, but I don't think you can - I'll look into it some more later...

Too bad. Any other way or workaround you know? like linking to a FlashPaper? or
etc?

Ohhh by the way, can I change the .exe icon of my movie? Im planning to have
it on a CD and distribute it, it would be better if the icon represents the
company logo... how can i do this stuff? thanks

The free-do-it-yourself way... download Resource Hacker (ResHacker) - you can
get it at download.com. Open ResHacker.exe and go to File > Open to select your
exe file. Then, go to Action > Replace Icon. Select the icon you want to
replace from the 'Select icon to replace' list. Hit [Open file with new icon]
and select your Icon. Then, hit [Replace]. Do that again for the other icon.
When you're done, hit [Close]. Then go to File > Save As (or File > Save if you
want to replace the original) to save.

OR, you can get FlashJester which allows LOTS of configuring for your exe (but
as I said before - costs money) http://flashjester.com

Thanks NSurveyor. Another question :)

I created the projector for windows .exe and I wonder if I could
disallow/prevent the user on left clicking on the movie? Because it shows menus
like, settings, zoom in, 100%, show all, quality, macromedia Flash Player 8 and
etc... can i disallow this? I saw the Nokia distribution CD kiosk and I
believed it was made in Flash, how come they disallow the said menus. thanks
again.

Hi NSurveyor, how can i remove the right click menu completely using the
ResourceHacker, cant find the folder for this one. I seen Icon folder...,
cursor folder and etc but does not say about the right clicking option.

Thanks

Inside ResourceHacker, open up the Menu folder. Open up folder 604. Then, right
click on each resource and hit Delete Resource (Are you sure? Yes) Then save.
You can do the same thing for the File menu, etc Folder 602: you can delete
them to remove the entire menu, or you could edit each one and remove the stuff
you don't want.

Can I throw another question unrelated to this thread topic...

I tried duplicating a movie clip and it works, my question is how can I add
onRelease method dynamically for each, without hardcoding each one e.g.
myclip0.onRelease = function() ..... myclip1.onRelease = function().....

thanks :) so much

Are you creating all of the duplicates at once, or seperately? If seperately,
when you have your duplicateMovieClip line... use:

var dup = whateverClip.duplicateMovieClip(...);//whatever you have just add
var dup = before
dup.onRelease = function(){
//do whatever here
trace("hola!");
}

or if you want to assign them to clip0, clip1, clip2, clip3,...,clip[n-1], all
at once use:

var n = 10;
for(var m=0;m<n;m++){
this['clip'+m].onRelease = function(){
//do whatever here
trace("hola!");
}
}

Hi all!

the Dirty Easy Way.

if you want full screen all time use this in yor timeline

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
};

don?t forget to put a quit button to escape.
