Details

FlashOnDesktop is capable of making general executable application(exe file in windows platform). For new users, A friendly project wizard will guide you through the whole process. Besides, FlashOnDesktop has the capability of making screensavers based on flash movie files.

FlashOnDesktop supports pixel-wised transparent window, so you may create irregular shaped window based on the alpha value in pixel of the flash movie. The window styles can also be tweaked one by one, for example, you may set the window to be always on top, and you may set the window to be shown in fullscreen mode.

You can create installation package by setting several properties.

FlashOnDesktop supports multiple window creation in one application. To create a new window, just new a com.asyncria.windowsystem.Window object, as following code shows.

import com.asyncira.windowsystem.Window;
var option:XML = <window></window>;
window.movie = "test.swf";
var window:Window = new Window(option);

Notice that although FlashOnDesktop supports multiple window creation, only the methods and properties of the Window object that contains the flash movie can be accessed.

You can copy, move, delete, create, open, read, write, close a local file in actionscript code based on FlashOnDesktop framwork. The file operations are finished as soon as the method invocation returns, so the file operation is synchronous.

The flash control and any other files can be embeded into the final execution file produced by FlashOnDesktop, so you need only release a single execution file.

FlashOnDesktop supports extending it's function by a simple but powerful extension system. To write an extension, you need only implement a simple interface: ISyncExtension.
