Is there any way that I can make a flash animation play 'full screen' on different size and res monitors?

You could pack it in a document/presentation that allows fullscreen-viewing if the Active x controls allow.

You could use a webpage: make a htm / hta file that spawns a full screen 'child'. That'd leave you with two open instances of the browser, so you could maybe have the fullscreen window close it's 'parent' while you're at it.

I'm not aware of a way to make the flash executable packages do it, but that'd be simpler and much more cool.

Quicktime plays Flash files, have you tried that? Hit Ctrl + 3

Media Player classic plays flash files in full screen intrestingly enough.

Just save the .swf file (normally you'd probably have to find the direct link by looking in the source of the page)

Thanks for the ideas. I'm wondering if Director would allow me to do a similar thing.

put this into first frame actionscript:

fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
fscommand("allowscale", "true");

edit:... i missed a quotation mark... fixed
