Hi all.

I've been wondering for a long time if it is possible to remove the flash player window.

The ideal solution would remove the maximize/minimize/close buttons & their accompanying frame, as well as the file/view/control toolbar.

I've searched high and low for an answer, but to no avail. I am using flash 7.

Thank you for any help,

Sean

Do you mean for a standalone projector?

Sorry I don't see what you mean about a standalone projector.

I basically want to create a flash application that gives NO indication that it was made in flash.

ie there's no player border, no RClick to zoom/change settings...

I haven't heard of Zinc but I'll check it out now.

Thank you both for replying.

A standalone projector = an exe that runs on the desktop as an application - as opposed to a SWF which is embedded in a web page...

I really wish the fscommand retained its v5 functionality.

Does Zinc- or any similar program- allow programs to be run from flash?

I am trying to create a frontend for a win32 program, and need the command line level control.

I appreciate this is a little off-topic (and that I'm double posting!!), but I'd truly appreciate your recommendations

Thanks

You can use fscommand("exec","myApp.exe") to launch an application...Your app needs to be in a subdirectory called fscommand though...

I am looking for a solution that allows me to leave my exec anywhere I want (I didn't make that clear)- but thanks
