Hi,
With the PC used CS3 to create a PC & Mac projector. CS3 now
creates a mac app folder rather than a compressed hqx file - nice.
I used CDEverywhere to create a cross platform ISO image for PC /
Mac, this has an autorun file for PC, but OSX does not allow autorun
like the older versions. Burnt my CD using a burner of choice...
This tutorial is really useful:
http://www.s-j-t.co.uk/flashkit/HybridCDv1.1.pdf and it tells you how to
do it on both PC & Mac.
There is a bit of caveat for loading Flex produced SWF's into a
Flash SWF which I am guessing applies to Projectors too - you have to be
careful about interacting with them before the Flex SWF is fully
initialised I think
(http://www.mail-archive.com/flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com/msg37081.html).
Will probably try to blog this, but the code below is all I have in my
projector.fla file. It listens for 3 events from the loaded SWF - if
when you dispatch these you can set the 3rd parameter "bubbles" to true
and as long as you don't catch it, it will pass all the way up to the
parent.
The only thing to remember is not to try and compile in Flex whilst
your SWF is loaded in a running projector - the Flex compiler throws
it's toys out of the pram and you have to restart before it will compile
again.

// Set up the loader object
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
import flash.display.Stage;
import events.ScreenEvent;
this.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("main.swf"); // File path is
relative to this preloader
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, setupLoader);
this.addChild(loader);
loader.load(request);
function setupLoader(evt:Event):void {
trace("loaded " + evt.target + " name " + evt.target.name);
trace("loader width " + loader.width + " height " + loader.height);
loader.addEventListener(ScreenEvent.QUIT, quit);
loader.addEventListener(ScreenEvent.FULLSCREEN_ON, fullscreenOn);
loader.addEventListener(ScreenEvent.FULLSCREEN_OFF, fullscreenOff);
}
function quit(evt:Event):void {
trace("quit");
fscommand("quit");
}
function fullscreenOff(evt:Event):void {
trace("fullscreenOff");
this.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.NORMAL;
}
function fullscreenOn(evt:Event):void {
trace("fullscreenOn");
this.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
}

I don't know if you tried but, I've done some and this has never worked for
me. In fact, it seems if you do both on a mac it is working and if you do
both on a PC the mac version get corrupted if I remember well.
I had to export them both on each OS and make an image with macimage for
example.
Maybe it is solved now?
By the way, if you have autorun problem with bat file and Flash CS3, read
this:

you can make a pc projector in the mac flash ide - you can do a mac
one on the pc but it needs to be decompressed before it gets burnt to cd

But this can't create a Mac projector on a PC and I am guessing
vice-versa. My aim was to create a PC / Mac CDROM, so I needed
both types, sorry should have said I wanted a .app or whatever it's
called.

Because I needed to produce a projector and I could not work out
how to get Flex to do that - don't want an AIR app, just an exe.
Open the swf file in flash player, File > Create projector
