I have a presentation built in Flash using AS3 and would like the projector to launch NOT in fullscreen, but as a maximized window.
Is there any way to do this via AS3?
A:
You can use the Capabilities class
screenResolutionX : Number [static] [read-only] Specifies the maximum horizontal resolution of the screen.
screenResolutionY : Number [static] [read-only] Specifies the maximum vertical resolution of the screen.
ex:
var maxWidth:Number = Capabilities.screenResolutionX;

Is there a way to take this information and set the size of the projector window to it?

this would have to be a Javascript job, but yes it's possible. In Actionscript you would have to use ExternalInterface to call the JS function ,as for the actual JS function, do a quick internet search or ask the JS guru here ;)

A:
IMHO you can't start a browser "maximized" via AS. Of course you can "maximize" your SWF but if the browser isn't maximized this won't help. You also can't start it automatically in fullscreen, this require a user input like a mouseclick.
