Deisgning for multiple screens/monitors

Hi Everyone. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to develop flash movies
for more then one screen. Were looking into doing a presentation where we
would want three things happening, full screen at once. I was thinking one
way or doing it would be to set the resolution on each monitor to 800x600, and
then design the flash movie at 2400x600. Then design what I want happening on
each screen at a separate space on the stage. I can see some alignment
problems arising with this though. Do any of you have any experience with
this, or have any suggestions?

Thanks

what i have done is set the width and height at 97%, it forces all browsers to
that view. I had redirect for various screen resolutions, but it disables the
back button and pisses people off. the site view i have now looks like an
elephant, but dont know how to resolve the issue

I saw some really sick work at Flash In The Can where there was a director
shell around (in your case) three individual flash movies. The shell (and by
"director" I mean built in Director) managed the calls between the movies so
they could each interact with each other, but because the entire piece was
built in Director it could manage being full screen on (in this case) 6
projectors simultaniously.

I want my site to work full screen on monitors from 600x800 to 1024x1280,
and got very frustrated trying to do it with HTML. I have had flash movies
within an HTML page on my site for a while. I recently realized that if I made
a 1024x1280 FLASH movie and put on my site without the HTML page, it would
automatically play full frame on any size screen. So I just started redoing my
web pages in Flash, and loading them on the site as swf files instead of the
old site HTML PAGES. It seems to work fine. Anybody out there doing the same?
Anybody aware of problems? Check out the first couple of experimental Flash
