We discovered an ActionScript class written by Manish Jethani which extends the mx:videoDisplay component in Flex and adds full-screen support to it. To use this ActionScript class, place it into your flex application folder (I placed it in a sub-folder called ‘com’) and create an XMLNS link in your mx:Application tag, create an import link in the script area of your application and simply replace your VideoDisplay code with FSVideoDisplay. Now you can create a button which calls a function that resizes your video window. See code below for an example:

The original article of Manish Jethani can be found here. NOTE: You need to update some files before you can use this new feature. The files can be found here. You also need the latest version of the Flash Player (version 9.0.28.0) or later.

We started by finishing the analyzing fase. All the information we need for this fase is now in, except for some things my groupmembers will get with some research. I volunteered to be the document manager during this project, so I’ll be taking care of collecting all important documents and tying them together to a good projectplan with a descent layout:). In the meantime I started studying Flex with some tutorial video’s. As I progress through the video’s, my interest in Flex grows. It’s a very intuitive and good program:). I find that learning with video tutorials is a very good way of learning. We also started brainstorming about the new website we have to build during this project. We thought about the navigational structure, the layout and some other things. After that we agreed that we all build a little Flex mockup during this weekend. I already learned a lot from the video’s about navigation and layout with Flex apps. This has helped me already a lot while building my mockup version.
