Scaring people with fullScreen
When Flash Player 9 goes into full screen mode, it pops up a little security message that tells the user how to exit full screen mode. It appears as white text on a semi-transparent black background so it is generally always visible (which is good). Still, I wondered if it could be obscured.
The message is always on top, so it is impossible to draw over it. But what if we tried distracting the user from the actual security message?
Here’s a silly test:
Of course, you can press Esc (or alt+tab to another window) to escape.
UPDATE: I have made the source code available, warts and all, under a ZLib licence. Share and enjoy ![]()



Bravo! Best use of FP9 fullscreen feature I’ve seen so far
