How to create true fullscreen movies with Flash

Flash Player 9.0.28 is the first version that supports true full screen playback for Flash movies. Unfortunately this awesome feature won't
be fully supported by the Flash Authoring Environment until version 9 comes out later this year, but with a small modification to your Flash
8 installation, you can already create flash movies that make use of this feature today. Here's a simple tutorial to make your flash movie
run in full screen:
Before continuing with this tutorial, make sure that you are using at least Flash Player version 9.0.28. Prior versions of Flash Player 9
(9,0,16,0 and 9,0,20,0) don't support this feature yet. You'll need to upgrade to 9,0,28,0, which happens to be the first version to also
work with Vista.
The key to the new feature is a new attribute to the Stage object in ActionScript, 'displayState'. This attribute takes two inputs:
'fullScreen': Sets the stage to display full-screen
'normal': Default setting
Before you can go and set this attribute, you'll need to make a modification to your Flash 8 installation. Pull up the following file in your
Flash installation folder:
Flash 8\en\First Run\Classes\FP8\Stage.as
Add the line "static var displayState:String;" to the file so it looks like this:
intrinsic class Stage
{
static var displayState:String;
static var align:String;
static var height:Number;
static var scaleMode:String;
static var showMenu:Boolean;
static var width:Number;
static function addListener(listener:Object):Void;
static function removeListener(listener:Object):Boolean;
}
Now you can set the displayState attribute in your flash movie. For security purposes Flash only allows the displayState to be set to
fullscreen on user interaction, which means you cannot have a movie open in fullscreen mode by default. You'll need to add a button that
captures the user's interaction in order to switch to full screen. In my example I simply created a toggle button:
toggle_btn.onRelease = function(){
if(Stage.displayState == "fullScreen"){
Stage.displayState = "normal";
}
else{
Stage.displayState = "fullScreen"
}
}
If you want to detect that fullscreen mode has been entered or exited, you can use a new event listener function, onFullScreen:

EventListener = new Object;
EventListener.onFullScreen = function( bFull:Boolean ){
// change to fullscreen mode has been detected
if(bFull){
v_mc.vtxt = "You are in Full Screen Mode";
}
else{
v_mc.vtxt = "Everything is back to normal";
}
}
Stage.addListener( EventListener );
There's one more trick to this. Another security restriction requires a new attribute to be added to the EMBED tag, 'allowFullScreen'. You
need to manually set this attribute to 'true':
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
width="320" height="240" id="fullscreen_flash" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="fullscreen_flash.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="fullscreen_flash.swf" allowfullscreen="true" quality="high"
bgcolor="#ffffff" width="320" height="240" name="fullscreen_flash" align="middle"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
Unfortunately it seems like neither SWFObject or UFO support this new attribute, so you'll have to rely on the plain old embed tag for
now.
Update: UFO does support the new attribute in version 3.21. Be sure to use the set the lowercase variable allowfullscreen:"true".
SWFObject also supports it via so.addParam("allowFullScreen", "true").
And that's all you need to know to start building fullscreen flash movies. You can download the demo FLA here.

Very nice tutorial. Although I can't seem to get this to work. I updated the stage.as file like you have it. I downloaded your sample
file and published it. But nothing. I get an error saying "There is no property with the name 'displayState'."
Thanks.

update the fllowing file :

Stage.as

Very nice tutorial. Working with Safari,IE but not with Firefox.
# Posted By Anshul | 5/ 18/ 07 5:23 AM
Anshul, it should work fine with Firefox as well. Make sure that you are using the same version of the flash plugin across all
broswers. The best way to do this is to check the version number in the top left corner of the SWF posted in the article.
# Posted By J ulian | 5/ 18/ 07 8:20 AM
I have downloaded the sample, and it works perfectly even after republishing. But when I add the same code to my documents it
does not work at all. What the problem may be? Do I have to adjust any special settings, or anything else? All swf files I tested in
Opera with Flash Player 9.0.28.0.

Anyone knows how to make a movieclip fullscreen instead of _root?
I'm having a flashmovie that has a stage size of 600x400. in the _root i have a videoplayer called vidPlayerMc
(_root.vidPlayerMc). Now when i toggle the fullscreen button I only want the vidPlayerMc to go fullscreen, not the stage!
thanx in advance

Great help, great tutorial!!! Thank you soooo much
# Posted By mane_ mc | 5/ 30/ 07 10:04 AM
the keyboard input dont work in fullscreen
# Posted By microbot | 6/ 5/ 07 1:19 PM
sjaakie: you'll need to resize the video player to cover up the entire 600x400 stage, make it fullscreen. It'll seem like only the video
player is going full screen. When leaving fullscreen, you need to resize it back to normal.
# Posted By J ulian | 6/ 7/ 07 12:46 PM
Adobe just released the beta for flash player 9.0.60, which will include the ability to set a specific rectangular area of the stage to
full screen. This will also allow for hardware acceleration for video playback. I'll be adding a blog post shortly.
Great tute - just one caveat that I have not seen mentioned anywhere:
Your wmode parameter in the object/ embed tags cannot be set to transparent if you'd like to see this behavior in action! If you just
cannot get your movie to go fullScreen using the example above - be sure to check your wmode!

Any idea how to remove the button once on Full screen?

# Posted By Nick | 7/ 7/ 07 4:57 AM
thanks for the tutorial, julian
i added this after i got a publishing error, and that fixed my problem:
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
however, when i use the toggle to go back to normal mode it resizes and then the screen goes blank - any thoughts?
i've tested in safari and firefox, same results, with fp mac 9.0.80.120 and using flash cs3 w/ as 2

I've been looking for something like this for hours. Thank you very much on this article, the only thing that I am trying to accomplish

Wondering if this will work on all screen resolutions / displays.
Rocking a 23in, 1920x1200, cinematic display.
Wondering if the picture source simply is not large enough
or
If the fullscreen aspect only works for non cinematic displays?
(tutorial source file produces large white stripe on side of pic)
# Posted By harperholsinger | 7/ 26/ 07 6:06 AM
The full screen function should work on any screen resolution. I think your screen resolution simply is larger than the sample image
supplied in the source file. Try a larger image and it should even fill up your screen.
I downloaded your fla example and I recieve these errors ..
###############################################################
**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=AS, frame=1:Line 26: There is no property with the name 'displayState'.

Any idea why this is doing this?

"**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=AS, frame=1:Line 26: There is no property with the name 'displayState'."
Read the tutorial carefully -- you need to modify one of Flash's class files (State.as) or the code won't compile.
# Posted By Tonio | 8/ 3/ 07 6:13 PM
I never found anywhere, on any website ... that Flash has a BIG Problem ... i won't swear .. but it took me 12 hours to figure out ...
this is true ... but they never said anything about
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" / >
with wmode transparent .. it doesen't work ,,, wmode .. must be defined as 'window' or empty ... i hate Adobe ...
# Posted By Mihai I orga | 8/ 8/ 07 12:28 AM
btw .. i forgot to mention earlier ... without wmode .. z-index ... of flash is on top of all :(

I made use of fullscreen feature in Flash 8 only by using this line:
Stage["displayState"]="fullScreen"
# Posted By Liviu | 9/ 6/ 07 1:29 PM
Guys, guys, guys... trying to use the "Test movie" function from the Flash application it self will result in all the probs mentioned
above - in most cases.
Want it to work?
Export the movie to the disc as an swf-file. Double-click on that swf-file and the actual FlashPlayer starts it up and all works fine, or
put the swf-file into a html page and run it trough your browser.

I have no clue - what "player" Flash is running on the "Test movie" function, but hello - it aint the FlashPlayer run as a standalone
app.
# Posted By TheCore | 9/ 12/ 07 11:13 AM
Nice tutorial
While working under the hood of flash also do some work in the:
__________________________________________________________________________________
AsColorSyntax.xml
Flash 8\en\First Run\ActionsPanel\AsColorSyntax.xml
....
<identifier text="CustomActions.uninstall"/ >
<identifier text="Stage.showMenu"/ >
<identifier text="Stage.displayState"/> <- Add this
<identifier text="Stage.scaleMode"/>
....
__________________________________________________________________________________
ActionPanel.xml
Flash 8\en\First Run\ActionsPanel\ActionScript_1_2\ActionsPanel.xml
....
<folder name="Properties" id="Properties" tiptext="Properties of the Stage object" helpid="x20B38" version="6">
<string name="displayState" tiptext="Flash movie display state: normal, fullScreen"
helpid="" text="Stage.displayState" version="9" object="Stage"/ >
....
__________________________________________________________________________________
And the html files (default,Flash_With_SCORM_2004,etc.)
...
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
$PO
<embed $PEwidth="$WI" height="$HE" name="$TI" align="$HA" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="true"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; />
...
__________________________________________________________________________________
Notes
1) DON'T BACKUP YOUR XML FILES. Apparently Flash is a rather intuitive program that
will search your harddrive and find every copy of the XML files... and load them twice.
2) As mentioned by Mihai Iorga and microbot - Don't use fullScreen if your page requires
wmode transparent or keystroke dependent elements like input
- they either don't work or are disabled :(
3) Good pratice - Don't display fullscreen buttons if the player is below 9.0.28.0
ie. myFullScreenButton._visible=(Stage.displayState!=undefined)
Did I forget something?
Best to you all,

Great tip on Fullscreen vid using Flash 8.
Question: If my video is on a larger .SWF stage (not filling the stage already), how can i just have the video go fullscreen, instead
of the swf it is a part of?
Thanks in advance

How i can hide the "Pres Esc to exit..." ???
# Posted By j d | 2/ 12/ 08 10:54 PM
You cannot hide the "Press Esc to Exit..."
Also for this to behave properly in firefox on Mac,
make sure to have
'wmode' anything but 'transparent' like some guys have mentioned above.
Otherwise on Mac when trying to exit fullscreen mode, the browser will be blank until you click in the address bar or double click
somewhere else.
thank goodness for the comments in this post, helped me tons!

I have encountered a strange trouble: my movie start with with a fixed frame (Stop(); action on timeline), then the users must click
6 de 10 27/05/2009 14:21
a button to go away.
I I try to add the fullscreen action command to this button, it don't works. So, because I need this passage - from first fixed frame
to followings - I have done another test: I put on first frame a black mc, that cover all the stage, with the toggle_fullscreen button
in the middle; the button have a second action, inside its onRelease event, that hide the black mc, showing the first frame of movie.
But - and this is the strange trouble... - when I test it in the browser this is what occur:
the first time I click the button, the movie go to fullscreen but the blach mc don't disappear. If I click again the button, going back
to 'normal', and then click again going to fullscreen, this time all works fine: the movie go to fullscreen and the black mc is hide.
How can I solve this?
Which is the reason why?
I'll appreciate very much any help by you...

{
}

Please check this out, especially if you're bored!
Not only full screen, but check out the controls on
the towercrane (lower left of screen). Move the
bucket in/ out/ up/down. Kind of fun.
Also, I put "Open full window" and "Close this
window" in the upper right corner of the stage. I
think it's kind of cool but you're comments are
welcome, especially if you agree;-)
Thanks for the help.

Scene = Scene 1, layer=SA, Frame= 1, line 26 There is no property with the name displayStage.
Like I say I already updated the Stage.as file and restarted my PC. What else can I try?

With reference to s2soon's post about wanting to use it to make an OSx interface; If you intend to run it from the desktop, rather
than the browser, then you're better off using:
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
and then to exit fullscreen you use:
fscommand("fullscreen", "false");
To quit the desktop app then you can use:
fscommand("quit");

hi,
i desperately need a code in AS2.0 for a fullscreen button which would fullscreen only the mc on the stage and not the whole stage.
I'm using Flash CS3. I already found several solutions for making the stage fullscreen on a browser but couldn't find a way to make
just the movieclip fullscreen with the fullscreen button.. any help would be appreciated..

Thanks for the nice tut, im not using it but it helped me to find the fullscreen function in flash player 9. In order to center a mc in
the stage (inside the mc is my actual site) im using this tutorial:

sadly it is in italian, but there are sample files that can be easily undestood, hope it helps!.

the problem everyone is having with displaystate.as is because flash often uses different places to source it's classes - to solve it
simply add the class path via the publish settings tab in your flash movie. i.e from within flash file/publish settings/actionscript
settings - then add the path to stage.as file you altered for e.g C:\Program Files\Adobe\ Adobe Flash CS3\ en\First Run\ Classes\ FP8.
then test it should work.
rgds + great tutorial.
