Adding full screen code into Captivate 5's basic Button Widget

Question

Hi everyone!
I was able to create a full screen button in Flash that works with Captivate 5 projects, however, I want to be able to active the full screen feature for every button created using the basic 'button' widget that comes with the Captivate program.  I am not a AS3 programmer so I think my issue is that I am confused as  to where to place the full screen code into the existing 'button widget'  code. Below is the code ...
Thanks in advance!!

HERE IS THE FULLSCREEN CODE THAT I USE
button_name.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fullScreen_action);
function fullScreen_action(event:MouseEvent):void {
stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
stop();
HERE IS THE BASIC CODE FOR THE BUTTON WIDGET IN CAPTIVATE 5

Hi again,
I just added a virtual keyboard widget, so that you can enter text even in Fullscreen Mode
