Returns
Nothing.
Description
Method; shows the specified Flash Player Settings panel, which lets users do any of the following
actions:
• Allow or deny access to the camera and microphone
• Specify the local disk space available for shared objects
• Select a default camera and microphone
• Specify microphone gain and echo suppression settings
For example, if your application requires the use of a camera, you can tell the user to select Allow
in the Privacy Settings panel and then issue a
System.showSettings(0) command. (Ensure that
your Flex screen size is at least 215 x 138 pixels; this is the minimum size Flash requires to display
the panel.)

System.showSettings(1);

Availability

Usage
System.useCodepage:Boolean
Description
Property; a Boolean value that tells Flash Player whether to use Unicode or the traditional code
page of the operating system running the player to interpret external text files. The default value
of
System.useCodepage is false.
• When the property is set to false, Flash Player interprets external text files as Unicode. (These
files must be encoded as Unicode when you save them.)
• When the property is set to true, Flash Player interprets external text files using the traditional
code page of the operating system running the player.
Text that you load as an external file (using the
getURL()or the LoadVars class or XML class)
must be encoded as Unicode when you save the text file in order for Flash Player to recognize it as
Unicode. To encode external files as Unicode, save the files in an application that supports
Unicode, such as Notepad on Windows 2000.
