Full Screen Java Application - possible?

[Ganymed Stanek]

I'd like to do a Full Screen Slide Show - it doesn't matter if i realise it
as a real java application or a applet.

How can I get rid of the windows controls to have it really full screen?

[Ako]

Try this i havent tried it myself so i dont know if it works or not


Frame openWin = new Frame();
openWin.setBackground(Color.black);
openWin.hide();
////////////////////////////////////

//<!------Detect screen size
Dimension SIZE = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit ().getScreenSize();

int SCREEN_WIDTH = SIZE.width;
int SCREEN_HEIGHT = SIZE.height;

GFX_window = new Window(openWin);
GFX_window.setBounds
(0,0,SCREEN_WIDTH,SCREEN_HEIGHT+20);
GFX_window.show();
GFX_window.requestFocus();




Good luck,


Ako

Assuming that this method works (I am unsure if it will or will not), this
code makes several assumptions about the user's environment.

1) The user has a visible task bar.
2) The user has positioned their task bar on the bottom of the screen.
3) The task bar will always be 20 pixels high.

If one or more of these are incorrect, your result will be undefined. No
doubt there will be some sort of Exception thrown for attempting to go outside
valid screen boundaries.

Best of luck.
