I've been wondering about this for a long time but never actually looked around. Apparently this solution has been found. I hate watching a tutorial on one screen but not being able to keep it maximized on my 2nd monitor because I'm working in the editor on my first monitor. So, this guy made a "patch" to the flash file that makes it so the flash window stays full-screen even if you're working on a separate monitor .. WOOHOO imo..
To make it work in windows 7 I had to put the file here: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder I'm not sure where it goes for other operating systems but it probably says something about it on this first link. To note I also have a 64 bit version of windows so it may have to go in a different directory even on the 32 bit version of windows 7. Take a look around, it shouldn't be too hard to find on that page. Other files in the same folder for me are "FlashUtil10h_Plugin.exe and FlashUtil10h_ActiveX.exe so maybe if you find those files on a different OS it'll be the right spot to put it. Good luck, hope someone else finds this as useful as I do!
