Start Gallery in Fullscreen Mode

15 Sep 2008, 14:38

Hi,

i would like to run Imagevue as a frontend for my 22' touchscreen from Elo. The computer is a MAC mini. It works flawlessly and looks just great if you start the fulscreen mode by hand.

The only problem ist that i want to autostart the gallery after booting and run it in Fullscreen without any user interaction. I saw that there is a solution for Windows computers but i found nothing compareable for the MAC.

I tried to use automator because it should fit my needs perfectly.
Those who don't know automator, you can record what your mouse is doing and then put it in autostart and play it.
The problem ist that everything is working EXCEPT the klick for fullscreen.
It seems like this issue is with every flash movie. I also tried to automat an action where i open a youtube vieo and klick fullscreen, it also wont work. Maybe its a security feature that you have to klick the fullscreen button with a REAL mouse.

1. Is there a way that imagevue starts in fullscreen automaticly if you are entering the gallery URL in the browser?
2. Does anyone have an idea how to get an executable file that opens imagevue in fullscreen mode?
3. Is there a hotkey for starting fullscreen mode? Maybe that would work in automator.
4. Does anyone know another solution for this problem? :(

Greetings,
Johnson

I think the differnce is that you want to start your gallery in fullscreen for every user that is visiting your site over a browser. I have the possibility to run a executable file on my computer to start it in fullscreen.

Its working with an .exe file on windows so it should also be able to work on a MAC.

If im wrong please correct me. :?

I think your only remedy is an .EXE file solution ...

I would love to be able to create a LINK on the webstie, that opens the gallery in full screen mode, like

GALLERY when clicked, opens gallery in full screen mode in new window. That would be awesome.

That would be pretty easy ... You could simply lookup "javascript open full screen window" in google, and simply apply the javascript to your "gallery" link and point it to the imagevue gallery.

Just keep in mind, this method is unrelated to the native flash fullscreen - It uses HTML to create a "chromeless" browser window.
