Launch Full Screen in Moodle (Scorm Compliant)

Hi,
Now that I have resolved my original issue with Captivate + Moodle & Scorm, on to the next question
I have created a test CP4 module at 800 X 600
When setting up the Scorm module in Moodle, I have had dramas getting the Stage Size set correctly.
Entering either 100% & 100% (as suggested in another forum) or 800 X 600 does NOT result in a stage of that size. Resulting in the user having to scroll to view the window even though there is sufficient space on the window.
Also, content is shoved across due to a side navigation panel:
I am hoping to either be able to hide the navigation panel (Moodle issue, have posted in Moodle forum) or launch the CP4 file in a full screen window
So . . . to my Captivate question . . . how can I edit the launch file generated by CP4 to force the content to open in a full screen window (without breaking the SCORM connection?)
Baby steps
Thanks,
Matt

I had to do similar recently. The way I got this to work was to resize the container that teh Flash file is embedded into. In the case of the GeoLearning LMS that I use, I had to use this
function whenLoaded()
window.parent.parent.resizeTo(1024, 768);
window.parent.scrollbars=0
window.parent.parent.scrollbars=0
//alert("Resize called");
to resize the parent of the parent of the window that contains the Flash file. Call the function from Body OnLoad
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" onload="whenLoaded()
I set the Flash file to display at 100% too
var so = new SWFObject(strURLFile + strURLParams, "Captivate", "100%", "100%", "9", "#CCCCCC");

Projector doesn't launch full screen

Hello Forum
I am having a strange problem. I have created a as3 projector file (flash player 10) which launches full screen. And it does launch full screen on all computers here in our office. We have sent out the files to the client last night and they have started installing them in their computers. It works on all computers except one. They say in that particular computer the application launches but for some reason not full screen. They can manually switch it to full screen by clicking on Command F.
I have a feeling they somehow must be launching an older version of the application by mistake, even though they are certain that they are clicking on the most recent one. Is it possible to prevent full screen launch in a preference setting somewhere?
Any thoughts or help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi, although I can't be for sure with the information given. It sounds like you are running in Windowed mode. Look in your game options and see if there is an option to turn windowed mode off.
Hope this helps

Flash Player does not launch full screen upon Windows restart

We have a Flash application file (flash.exe file) saved on the Desktop of our client's 46" touchscreen. We've created a shortcut to the application in the Windows Start/All Programs/Startup menu as we have 4 reboots scheduled during the day for this application. Upon reboot, the application does not launch full screen but if I cancel out of the application through the Task Manager and go to the Startup menu and double click the shortcut to the exe file, the application launches full screen. The size of the screen and application is 1920x1080.
Other information:
Windows XP SP3
Flash Player 10
(Please note I have fixed the Window System Error that you see in this screen shot)
Thank you for your help!

Do you have set it to Maximized ?

Problems launching Full Screen QT7 in Windows... help?

I have been testing full screen video over the web using QT7. It works awsome in Mac, but I am dealing with odd bugs in widnows - so here goes.
This page: http://www.24frets.com/testing/
Works fine, but the controller that appears on full screen doesn't show the chapter tracks - I am guessing that this feature down't work in the Windows version? (The chapters appear in the QT player window, just not full screen. It works fine in both on a Mac.)
Also, the second video clip after the "Rock n Roll TV" title, (roping dogies), often appears over a white background even though the background is set for #000000
On this page: http://www.24frets.com/testing/index2.html
The movie that is called when you click on the poster frame in the web browser is a QTL file that calls the previous full screen movie. (I did that to get quicktime to close when the movie is finished and return to the web page.)
On my Mac, I occasionaly get a QT crash when I call it, then it works the next time - that may be an odd error - can't nail it down.
On windows, it launches with the volume at zero. I had a volume="100" parameter in the QTL file but nothing helps.
Are these known bugs in the Windows QT7?
I noticed that on the first testing page, the sound played fine even though the controller shows the volume down, on the second page there was no sound but it came back up when you raised it with the floating controller.
Thanks in advance - people are amazed at the full screen quality, and the data rates are around 720kbps - YEAH! Now if I can just debug the Windows version.
Also the movie that plays full screen is a SMIL file for quicktime.
Powerbook 1.67ghz Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Hmm, you may be onto something regarding the repair permissions thing. The authorization issue is happening when even putting together a movie that has more than one song from itms (and if you go to trim it, you end up in an endless loop between iMovie and iTunes— FUN!). There's a whole 'nother thread on it here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1079288&tstart=0
I did report it as a bug however. One other person in that thread was able to duplicate the issue at an Apple store on one of their machines. One would assume they go through the steps you do before installing software (assume tht is).

Launching full screen movie (not projector) from a standalone

Hi. I'm developing a standalone projector (for use on a DVD)
that will automatically start playing a progressive movie within a
smaller window in the projector. I want to give the viewer the
option of viewing the movie (not the projector) fullscreen. The
projector is currently 800 x 480 and the movie is 420 x 312. I've
managed to launch a new window from the projector when the viewer
clicks a button, but it's not finding the movie I've imported. I
thought it may have something to do with the second projector
(being launched from the FS Command folder) not being able to find
the movie in ANOTHER FSCommand folder, but I'm not sure. Does that
make sense? I'm not a seasoned pro at Actionscripting.
Any help is much appreciated.

No really !!
You need to be more clear.
If it's not a Projector then what is this EXE ?
Look at this example, it allows the user to select different
size screens at
runtime.

Scorm and Full Screen Launch

I created a eLearning program in Captivate and exported via
zip to my LMS (GEO Learning) and the course will not lauch in a
browser frame that is full screen or can be enlarged to full screen
by the user. I read in the help that " If you select AICC or SCORM
options for the project, the full screen publishing option cannot
be applied."
Does anyone know a fix for this issue or how I can get my
project to launch full screen as a Scorm course?

Without resorting to a custom ActiveX control or something
similar, you only get to specify the browser window features when a
window is initially opened. The best you can do after the fact is
resize the window using the JavaScript window.resizeTo() method in
the Captivate-generated HTML page.
This means that it's basically up to the LMS to launch the
course in a new window with only the features you want. If your LMS
won't let you customize the new window, you're pretty much out of
luck.
You *might* be able to use JavaScript in the HTML page to
redirect the course into a new window that has only the features
you need, but doing so would very likely break the SCORM connection
between the course and the LMS. I haven't worked with Captivate's
SCORM implementation enough to know for sure.
If you want to give it a shot, you can learn more about the
JavaScript window.open() method here:

Full screen games crash at launch on Bootcamp Win XP with Apple Cinema Disp

Hello,
strange issue to me. Everything goes flawlessly on Win XP on Bootcamp on my 2010 MBP 13", and games launch full screen with no problem. But as soon as I use my external 20" Apple Cinema Display, they crash immediately after launch. I wouldn't know on Windows how to get console logs etcetera.
This is an issue with all games launched at full screen. No issue in applications.
How to fix this?

Anyone, please.
This now only happens with Unreal Engine games since I chose "use this screen only" on my Nvidia preferences. I think it has to do with the Win XP drivers for this Nvidia integrated chip (Geforce 320M), which aren't much updated in Win XP. I think I could fix it by updating to Windows 7 and using newer drivers which aren't available in XP. Hope so.

Can I set Calendar to open full screen on boot?

I was able to do so in Lion, I believe mainly because Lion remembered that I had Calendar launched full-screen ... even though I did not use the "remember open windows when logging back in" feature.
Now, I have to make Calendar full screen every time I launch. Any suggestions?

With Calendar open, right-click it's icon in the doc, hover over the options menu, and select "open at login". It will now open every time you login, and if the last time you used it it was in full screen, it should launch that way.

Flash exe Full Screen Load?

I am trying to launch my flash output file in exe and have it
launch full screen. Does anyone know how to do this?

Hey, if you want the app to go fullscreen as soon as it's
opened, put this command into the first frame of the movie. This
can also be attached to a button, or a function, or wherever it's
needed.

SCORM compliant SWF file stills hangs on loading screen

I am using Captivate 5.0 v 5.0.2.630 . I have checked for the latest patches and updates and my software is up to date including the patch that was supposed to correct the problem I am having.
I have a SCORM-compliant course and the SWF file hangs at the loading screen. This usually only happens after the user has launched and exited the course without completing it. But is has happened once with an initial launch of the course. The problem seems to be more prevalent if the user’s browser is Mozilla but it has also happened in IE
The LMS I am using supports both AICC and SCORM compliant content.
I have also changed the scorm_support.js file from var g_nAPI = 0 to var g_nAPI = 1 which was suggested in a March 21 blog post.
Any suggestions would be very gratefully appreciated.

I am having a similar issue. I took the update earlier this week and it seemed to be working until a user fails the quiz and exits the course. When they return to the course it sticks on the grey loading screen - infinitely.
Any suggestions would be most helpful!
We are using IE7
Captivate 5
Geo LMS

Full Screen mode cancelled by launching PDF in Browser Window

There are quite a few of these posts on here. After Flash 9
the fullscreen fscommand no longer retains its fullscreen display
if you use getURL to launch a browser window to display either a
web page or a PDF. All of the previous posts have been "answered"
by the Flash Jester Jugglor Support Team, unashamedly plugging
JSTART and JUGGLOR to everyone raising this issue. When all we
really need is a response from Adobe on how we can fix this -
because it's obviously a BUG - and serves no real purpose.
I DON'T want to buy JUGGLOR, I tried it years ago and found
it buggy and unfathomable. All I want is to be able to keep my
fullscreen!
The cynic in me wonders whether FlashJester might be owned by
Adobe in some way, and by introducing this bug they're hoping to
raise additional revenue from selling all those copies of
JUGGLOR....?

most likely the example you got has a flaw, I've created a
few flex apps, and the work fine on full screen using ie6 or ie7 or
firefox. Try debugging it so you'll figure out what's the
issue

How to go back to card view when an app is in full screen mode without using launcher button

Is there a way to go back to card view when you are in full screen mode besides pressing he launcher button? This will wear that button out quick!
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello and thank you for using the HP webOS Help Forums!
The center button is not required for going into card view. In any position (landscape or portrait) you may swipe your finger from the bottom to top but just make sure you start int he black area around the screen. This is a subtle yet quick movement and may require some getting used to.
I hope this helps

How to launch firefox 4 in full screen mode

hello, How to launch firefox 4 in full screen mode. I dont want to press SHIFT CMD F each time? thx

There needs to a be a space before -fullscreen and that switch needs to be placed after the quotes
*"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -fullscreen
But I don't think that it will work. Firefox 4 doesn't have that switch by default, so support should be added via an extension.

Can I setup Safari to open in full screen on launch??

Anyone know how this can be done rather than pressing the full screen window when it launches.
Am I missing something really obvious??
Thanks in Advance
13" MBP 2009, Mountain Lion 10.8.2, 8Gb Ram

You are right. But you have to use the modifier key "option" to modify the default behavior.
Clicking the grey double arrow icon once Safari window is reopened, serves the same purpose.
I was answering to the question of launching Safari in Full Screen mode by default.
Best.

Mobile Safari Crash when using an iFrame in Full Screen mode (Icon launch)

Platform: iPad 2/3/mini iOS 8.1 (Other versions seem to show the same behavior)
The Problem:
I am making an html5 app that is running in full screen mode by adding it to the homescreen and using the <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes"> tag to hide Safari.
When altering the source of an iFrame to an asset (mov, mp3, etc), Safari in turn will crash ONLY when in full screen mode. If I am browsing my app out of full screen mode, the assets load without a problem.
The odd thing is, the default browser player for these assets change in appearance when using the full screen mode.
I have setup a page to reproduce the crash:
Navigate to: http://instapark.me/roi
Click on the big red mp3 button, an mp3 will play in the iframe.(No crash)
Click on the big red mov button, an mov file will play in the iframe. (No crash)
Add to your homescreen.
Launch from homescreen icon.
Click on the big red mp3 button, an mp3 will play in the iframe.(No crash, but it will not play.)
Click on the big red mov button, an mov file will play in the iframe. (crash!)

It is already switched off because it's a known issue that the macbook pro mid 2010 has kernel panics with the discrete gpu.
Any other guesses?
*Also please note that this is probably a safari issue since chrome works fine. But I can't read crash logs so any help would be appreciated.
