This keeps the fullscreen display of Flash videos open on all spaces. Nice for watching streams/videos on a second display (TV) and then switching around.
You'll need a plist-editor like XCode (or just a text editor if you're comfortable with that) and Flash version 10.2 or later, so it remains open when the application focus changes.
Do this:
- First backup and then open the file ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist with your editor.
- Add a new line under workspaces-app-bindings
- Name it org.mozilla.plugincontainer.
- Change the data type to Number.
- Set the value to 65544.
- Save the file.
- Log out and back in.
Works on 10.6. but I cannot check this on Lion, so please do and comment.
[crarko adds: I haven't tested this one. I admit I'm not quite exactly sure what this does, so exercise some prudence. Make sure you do the backup before making changes to the plist file. If you are adventurous and give it a go, do post results in the comments.]
