Error #2152: Full screen mode is not allowed.

I am publishing my flash content on the web. One of the features users have asked for is to balloon the program to full screen. When I do that, flash gives me a SecurityError: Error #2152: Full screen mode is not allowed.

I understand why Adobe does not want allow someone to sneak in a full screen mode on an unsuspecting user, but this is rather draconian.

Is there some way I can have the user indicate that he/she actually WANTS to go full screen, to satisfy the flash player?

So how are you trying to go to Full screen mode? My (somewhat limited) understanding is that it must be done in response to an actual user interaction, i.e., they must click something.

You seem to say you want some way for the user to indicate they wish to go full screen. So give them a button or some such.

I have them click on a fullscreen button. It is captured in an eventListener.

Here is the actual code

Oh. In that case my guess is that you haven't gone in and edited the html page to allowFullScreen to be true? There are several places in the html to change that so be sure you find all of them.

Got it! I had tried Flash--only allow full screen, Flash with FSCommand etc. I finally set it to windowless opaque and that did the trick.

Thanks so much!
