air application fullscreen trouble

Question

Hi there,

I am working on an adobe AIR application and having trouble with fullscreen.

When I set the application in fullscreen (stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;) the display freezes and nothing is being rendered. When I set it back to normal (by pressing esc) the application works fine.

thanks

Answer 1

Have you tried stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE?

Answer 2

Some quick ideas :

• Try to define the fullScreenSourceRect before changing displayState ; by doing this, your graphic card capacities will be used to smooth the render. (Note that the hardware smoothing doesn't seems to work on AIR 2.0 beta)

• ...if you're using AIR 2.0 beta, try the last stable version.

• Create an empty AIR project, put a Button and an Image on the scene, and retry with this project, to see if the issue comes from your code or if it's something else.

• Take a look at which version of the Flex framework you're using, and test with another one.

• If the problem persists, you may try your application on an other computer.

Hope this will help.
