Kieth, I'm not sure the "use full screen" option is what you are looking for. It does not mean to use the full Windows screen, but to bypass the windows environment entirely and call a VGA screen mode right from the hardware. No window, no title, no control, etc. In the case of a 320×200 animation, it would fill the entire monitor at 320×200 resolution! You can see what I am talking about by choosing full screen from the options menu just before hitting the play button in the Windows player. See if this will work for you. If yes, one way to access it is to set full screen mode up in a script, and call the script instead of the FLI file. You can also get to it directly from the .DLL but not via the MCI driver. If you need help with that, just let me know. -Brian
