AS3 External SWF Full Screen Button

Right now in my project I have a main SWF that loads an external SWF that contains a youtube chromeless player. My issue right now is that the main+loaded swf are embedded in HTML and there is an effect on the site that moves the flash. I have the video controls in html/javascript but since I can't externally call fullscreen unless its a flash button the controls have a "hole" in the bar to allow a button in flash to poke through for fullscreen. Issue is that when the flash moves, so does the fullscreen button.

Basically can a separate embedded flash swf just act as a fullscreen button for another embedded flash object?

What you're trying to achieve isn't possible. I recommend that you look into solutions that involve dealing with the movement of the Flash element on your page and abandoning your current idea.

Having one SWF invoke another one to go fullscreen is unfortunately not possible for security reasons, even if you use LocalConnection.
