Auto Full Screen for presentations

[Pierre Sahores]

Hello Katir,

Here is some code i'm using to handle such kind of tasks (a QT Player 
stack). Perhaps will it be something you can pick and adapt to your own 
needs :)

Best,



on resizeStack
   show fld "userpanel" of stack "istream"
   if the rect of stack "istream" is not the screenRect then pass 
resizeStack
end resizeStack



on dofullscreen
   lock screen
   put the screenrect into eee
   hide fld "userpanel" of stack "iStream"
   set the rect of stack "iStream" to eee
   subtract 20 from last item of eee
   set the rect of player "mainplayer" to eee
   set the showController of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 
false
   set the loc of player "mainplayer" of stack "istream" to the loc of 
window "iStream"
   hide menubar
   set the backgroundcolor of this cd to "black"
   unlock screen
end dofullscreen



on dofullscreen2
   lock screen
   put the screenrect into eee
   hide fld "userpanel" of stack "iStream"
   set the rect of stack "iStream" to eee
   show graphic "graphic1"
   subtract (last item of eee div 3.8) from last item of eee
   set the rect of player "mainplayer" to eee
   set the showController of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 
false
   set the loc of player "mainplayer" of stack "istream" to the loc of 
window "iStream"
   hide menubar
   set the backgroundcolor of this cd to "black"
   unlock screen
end dofullscreen2



on doresizebtn
   lock screen
   set the backgroundcolor of this cd to ""
   hide fld "userpanel" of stack "iStream"
   set the left of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to the left of 
fld "commandpanel" of stack "iStream"
   set the width of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to -44+the 
width of window "istream"
   set the top of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 20
   set the height of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to -38+the 
height of window "istream"
   set the showController of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 
true
   unlock screen
end doresizebtn



on doresizeplayer
   global StSzTemp
   lock screen
   set the backgroundcolor of this cd to ""
   if the left of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" is not "254" 
then
     show menubar
     set the rect of stack "istream" to the screenrect
     set the loc of stack "istream" to the screenloc
     set the top of window "istream" to 20
     set the height of window "istream" to -40+the height of window 
"istream"
     -- put the rect of stack "iStream" into StSzTemp
     -- set the rect of stack "iStream" to the screenrect -- StSzTemp
     set the showController of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 
true
     set the left of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 254
     set the width of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to -276+the 
width of window "istream"
     set the top of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 84
     set the height of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 
-46-60+the height of window "istream"
     set the width of fld "userpanel" of stack "iStream" to the 
-44+width of window "istream"
     hide graphic "graphic1"
     show fld "userpanel" of stack "iStream"
     revChangeWindowSize the width of stack "iStream", the height of 
stack "iStream"
   else if "mainplayer" is not in the target then
     hide fld "userpanel" of stack "iStream"
     set the left of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to the left 
of fld "commandpanel" of stack "iStream"
     set the width of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to -44+the 
width of window "istream"
     set the top of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to 20
     set the height of player "mainplayer" of stack "iStream" to -38+the 
height of window "istream"
   end if
   unlock screen
end doresizeplayer
