Update your Flash Player
"Full-screen mode was not originally supported if the wmode
is opaque or
transparent windowless, but it is now supported starting with
the latest
Flash Player 9 Update on Adobe Labs. If the user has multiple
monitors,
Flash Player uses a metric to determine the monitor that
contains the
greatest portion of the Flash movie and then goes full-screen
in that main
monitor."

How to put drop down menu over iframe?
I created drop down menu in A-Master with height 100 pixels.
On a page which uses A-Master template I've put youtube video, example:
<iframe width="1000" height="500" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/8eDuupJ9Uus" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
and when I export HTML, Iframe video is over dropdown menu so I can't see this menu, iframe is on top of it, how can I place dropdown menu on top of this iframe?
Tried to search whole internet with no good results, I have only found other people has same problem.
...and I have tried this "wmode="transparent" too:
<iframe width="560" height="349"src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/rLVCjnEGrqQ?wmode=transparent"frameborder="0" allowfullscreen wmode="transparent"></iframe>
was no goodYour menu layer should be on top of everything!

Ie9 flash object not showing when wmode is set
I'm searching and searching but do not find any solution for this.
We're having a flex web application that is working fine until now. We're using until recently the google maps flash api, unfortunately this is already deprecated and will disappear completely in september 2014. Therefor we moved the whole integration to the js v3 api, which is working fine. The whole thing is an overlay over the application, since everything is moved to js, I added the property wmode to the object in html and set it to opaque in order to be able to layer everything. It's working fine for most people, but some (including my boss) are seeing a blank screen. Seems that nothing happens (although the swf loads), and I can not figure out why. Same browser (ie 9 or 10), same flash player version (11.6.xxx). Browser cache cleared, flash player cache cleared...
Somebody having a clue? Removing the wmode-property solves the issue, but then I'm not be able to get my map on top of the application.
The swf is definetly loading since I see calls made to the server in order to login etc. It's also not a flash player issue. The swf-file is directly accessable and rendering if done so.
Thanks

</div>This means that the SWF is written so that it only works when
embedded in a web page. When you add the SWF to the stage as a
stand-alone display object using addChild() it is not being hosted
in the web page.
You have 2 options:
1. Modify the SWF code (if possible) to remove the
ExternalInterface requirement. You can write code in your AIR
application javascript to subscribe directly to events from the SWF
using addListener() and call functions directly on the SWF object
(Flash/Actionscript is not my primary development environment... so
if I have gotten the terminology wrong I apologize, but I HAVE
written a flash application that worked as I describe). My SWF
actually works embedded in HTML or not using the code "if
(ExternalInterface.available) {
ExternalInterface.addCallback("setIsPlaying", setIsPlaying ); }"
2) Somehow add a HTMLLoader in a new child window (with
transparent = false) to the stage as a new child. I have not yet
figured out exactly how to do this, so If anyone can provide
information on how to do this, I too would be appreciative. -
WMode Transparent not displaying in Windows/Firefox
Hello, I'm using Wordpress and a Wordpress flash plugin
called Showtime Slideshow as the site's gallery. It works
perfectly in the standard wmode=window setting in
Firefox/Windows, but I have a dropdown menu that
overlaps with the Flash. I was able to figure out the wmode
needs to be opaque or transparent, but when I use those
settings, nothing is displayed at all. It works fine in
Windows/IE, Mac/IE and Mac/Firefox, so there is something
in the code that Windows/Firefox doesn't like in this code
(another Flash object from YouTube with wmode=transparent
displays correctly).
Here is the code that the plugin generates:
<!-- generated by showtime WP plugin -->
<script type='text/javascript'>
var flashvars = {
xml : 'http://www.youtag.lu/youtagdesign/wp-content/plugins/showtime-slideshow/showtime/getxml.php?attr=id^433*source^medium*sourcehd^large*',
width : '674',
height : '448',
classid : 'st_0',
rotationtime : '5',
transition : 'SlideRight',
transitiontime : '1.5',
transitionease : 'BackEaseOut',
autoplay : '',
showcontrols : 'on',
fullscreen : 'on',
showtext : '',
showalt : 'on',
shuffle : '',
scale : 'noScale'
var params = {};
params.allowFullScreen = 'true';
params.bgcolor = '#EDEAE6';
params.quality = 'autohigh';
params.wmode = 'transparent';
//params.base = 'dirname(__FILE__)';
//params.allowScriptAccess = 'local';
var attributes = {};
attributes.styleclass = 'showtime';
swfobject.embedSWF ('http://www.youtag.lu/youtagdesign/wp-content/plugins/showtime-slideshow/showtime/st15.swf', 'st_0', '674', '448', '10.0.0', 'http://www.youtag.lu/youtagdesign/wp-content/plugins/showtime-slideshow/showtime/swfobject/expressInstall.swf', flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>
[taken from the Showtime Slideshow demo page]
Based on that code, can anyone see anything that
would cause the whole slideshow to not display at all?Bump. Could anyone take a look at the code?

Latest flash player, wmode GPU still not working in Safari
Hi
I have the latest flash player installed, (10.2.153.1) but when i use the parameter
wmode=gpu
in safari, nothing is displayed AT ALL. When right-clicking on the page, you only get the standard html options.
When I remove the 'wmode' parameter, everything works fine.
I have the latest version of safari. Everything works fine in other browsers (firefox, chrome).
any ideas anyone???
thanks!Sometimes it is just a trial and error. The main thing is since I'm not working with your files, I have to mimic your scenario as best I can. Make sure you give it exact positions when stacking actual videos or swf files to force them to overlap. I tested this first with just a swf file and now the example is swapped to stack to youtube embeds as examples.
It really shouldn't matter if it is a dropdown or what type of activity, as long as you have the stacking correct. You can also, generally set the one in back to opaque. I updated the code snippet because this one seemed to read better.

Flash wmode="transparent" still not working in IE
Hello there :),
I read many threads about this OLD problem, but saw no real solution at all. The threads are mainly older.
A drop down menu is always hidden by a flash movie in IE though wmode is set to transparent. In FF it works just fine!
Has anyone in 2013 solved this problem regarding the IE?

Flash wmode=transparent double-click problem in IE
Hi,
I've discovered a strange problem with flash content using
wmode=transparent in IE - when someone double click the flash the
whole movie TURNS BLUE (!)
For example you can see this behaviour in action at
http://www.stella-artois.cz
- I implemented there IE active content fix (as described at
http://www.macromedia.com/go/7c29e252)
and ended up with this.
Well, as far as I can say there are people who double-click
on everything, so I'd really like to fix it.
Would anybody know how to do that?

How do i change the wmode to GPU for all flash?
I was having lag issues for weeks now.. I started fiddling on the settings with a script called youtube center, I changed the wmode to GPU and the lag issues went away completely. The problem is... i need to do this to every flash video sites beause sites like twitch.tv still lag. Is there a way to change the default wmode to GPU?
Try disabling hardware acceleration or updating your video drivers to see if that helps.
How do I disable or enable hardware acceleration? -
Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash wmode transparent based
Google Voice Widget Not Working in Safari 5.1 which is Adobe flash with wmode transparent set. For that matter all flash text fields in Safari 5.1 are not working accross the web when wmode is set to transparent. This is a Safari bug! Other browsers work fine.
Well after much research Adobe flash text field with wmode transparent set is not working in Safari 5.1 when any flash object has the wmode set to "transparent", or "opaque". The problem is many site must layer flash objects with html so the wmode transparent must be used.
Affecting sites like BEST BUY, WALMART, CVS, STAPLES, Chechout their flash based weekly ads and find one that you need to update the quantity in the flash pop-up and the text field with keyboard strokes will not work. Flash text fields were all working fine until several month ago when Safari rolled out 5.1 working for Google Voice Flash based widget which uses the wmode transparent. HELP!

See comparison photo:

If not working for you, try clearing your cache to remove any old, non working versions.
Test on some other machine besides yours.
Code looks fine and seems to work.

Flash with wmode="transparent" doesn't work with non-US keyboard (like FF)
Safari has the same issue as FireFox (which they are finally fixing) :
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347185
If you use Flash with wmode="transparent" then it treats all keyboards as if they are US keyboards.
For example try G.ho.st http://G.ho.st/vc.html with a non-US keyboardI too am having issues. I am using Shockwave Flash 11.4.402.287 on Firefox 16.0.1. I am running on Windows 7 Enterprise. Disabling the plugin allows me to load pages quickly, but I am not able to view videos or play games. Firefox freezes upon loading a page that uses Flash. It remains frozen for an unacceptable length of time, then it will unfreeze on its own accord. The freeze affects the entire computer. I cannot interact with the desktop or the Windows start bar, and can only close Firefox by forcibly ending the "firefox.exe" process via Task Manager.
This is not the first version of Firefox that has displayed this problem to me. Firefox 15 also froze upon using Flash.
I had hoped that the latest Firefox update would solve this problem, but apparently not. Until then, I am forced to use Chrome, which is quite inconvenient for me as I am not at all familiar with that browser and am constantly clicking the settings button when I want to to go to my home page.
These freezes are incredibly frustrating and annoying. If Mozilla wishes to build a better Internet, they should try to make their browser a program that doesn't tempt me towards rage-quitting YouTube. -
Wmode mozilla links not clickable below swf
I have a flash file overlapping the html. and wmode is
transparent. the link belo wthe swf work fine in IE but not working
in mozzila..what can be done>I have a flash file overlapping the html. and wmode is
transparent.
There's your main problem. wmode=transparent is incredibly
buggy. It makes
things seemingly unrelated to transparency fail.
DO NOT USE IT !!
Try wmode=opaque (its a little less buggy) or redesign so
that you do not
have your SWF over the top of (or underneath) other content.
THAT is the
best solution

How to deal with transparent Flash ? Does WMODE work ?
I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and i have an ActivX object with a flash movie into.
I have a transparent background in my movie and wants it to work in LabVIEW.
There is the methode wmode included in the object. I set it to "transparent" like in a html webpage but i still get a white background.
Does wmode works in LabVIEW ?
Is there an other solution ?
Thank youIt may be that the OP wants the ActiveX control itself to be transparent, so that possible other LabVIEW controls beneath might show through. And I believe the ActiveX control does not support that in any way. Not even fully shure how that would work, but possibly ActiveX allows that option nowadays, but as said I don't think the LabVIEW container supports that.

Wmode="opaque" causes poor video playback in IE
Hey all,
Website in question: http://www.lavalleprinting.com/newweb/defaultsample.asp
In building a new website for my company, I've created a page where javascript drop-down menus are intended to expand over/in front of a .flv video.
wmode="opaque" or wmode="transparent" allow the menus to appear on top of the video, but cause rough playback in all versions of IE. All other major browsers play smoothly.
If I remove the wmode parameter, the video plays smoothly in IE, but the menus appear behind it.
I've also tried reducing the bitrate of the video to an unwatchable 250kb/s, and playback is still choppy.
I'd like the video to play smoothly in IE. Is there any hope?

Has anyone else run into the same problem? Is there some tweak I can make when encoding the .flv? -
Keyboard problem with wmode transparent and firefox
Hello,
I came accross a very nasty bug in this configuration:
FireFox+Windows+[Flex area using the wmode=transparent]
If the flex area has a text input, then the keyboard mapping
is stuck with a wrong keyboard mapping and some characters can
simply not be entered. For instance, on a French keyboard, it is
not possible to enter a @ character.
This bug seems very old, here is a reduced situation dated
from 2005 (!):

Many other people talked about the problem since, for
instance here:

My questions are:
* does anyone know of a work-around for this (and yes we _do_
need the transparent feature :-)
* why has this nasty bug not being fixed since 2005 ? I
posted a bug report today but it must have been done before.
I do not know if this is a bug with Firefox or the Flash
player but in all cases many Flex apps can be affected by this bug
if they use the transparent feature.
thanks in advance for the feedback,
