Mac projector fullscreen without the title bar?

Is that possible? I wrote a class to show my content full screen, but still get the title bar at the top when I open it on a mac.
Can that be done?
Thanks a lot!
Here is the AS I have in my class:
package com.viscira.utils.fullscreen
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
     import flash.display.Stage;
     import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
     public class FullScreen extends MovieClip
          public function FullScreen():void
          public function goFS():void
               stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
               stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;

JFrame frame=new JFrame();
frame.setUndecorated(true);
...but then you get no titlebar AND no border
so you'll have to add your own border if you want one.

How can I get back the title bar in Thunderbird 38?

The title bar can be turned on and off in Firefox. In the current version of Thunderbird (31), the title bar is present by default and there is no option to turn it off. In the beta version (38), there is no title bar by default… but I can't believe that there's no way to get it back. So, where is this setting? I can't find it.

I sure agree that the setting isn't easily discoverable, but that's too late for the 38.0 release given that string freezes went in effect already (the reason being that localizers have to translate all UI elements for their respective language).
The respective [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=814571 bug report] has been up for more than two years, but thus far not much progress in terms of a solution acceptable by the developers. I don't know if the extension proposed in the last comment was ever developed and posted.

Any way to get at the title bar in JFrame?

I'd like to either add a button to the title bar (title pane?) or override the behavior of the resize button. As far as I can tell, the LookNFeel classes don't allow you to add anything, just change colors, icons, etc. The WindowListener classes don't let you get at the resize button. I don't want to override Component.setSize() (that causes other problems), I just want to have the resize button do something different (or add another button).
I'd appreciate any ideas!

1) You could create your own frame that extends JWindow. This would be quite involved, since you'd need to make it respond to mouse drags, mouse resizing etc explicitly (if you wanted that functionality), but you would be able to add your own custom border, which you could make to look like a system border, or you could make comletely different.
2) I don't know this could be persuaded to do what you want, but you could try adding a ComponentListener to the JFrame to check for resizes, and take action accordingly

How do I get the full current path in the title bar of a terminal window?

Is it possible to get the full current path in the title bar of a
terminal window? I would find that more meaningful than
"Terminal - tcsh - 80x60" (which I currently get). Doing
this would free me from wanting to display the path in my
system prompt thereby allowing me to use a shorter prompt
and having more space on the line for actual input.
Thanks

IIRC, Terminal->Window Settings->Window controls that information. That said, I don't understand what full current path means in this context, nor why you'd want to display it in title bar.
Your terminal prompt is a concatenation of your computer name (SysPrefs->Sharing—easily changed) and the path to your user's home directory using the short username (hard to change).
computer name:~ username$

After installing FF4 on 2 computers (both Win7Ultimate), one places tabs in the title bar, the other below it; how can I get both to place tabs in the title bar?

I have the same options selected on each computer, both have "Tabs on top" selected.
The one I am using now has a double-height title bar, with the Firefox botton on the top left, and tabs below it also on the left.
The right side of the title bar is blank (semitransparent) space.

Found the problem - on one computer, I run Firefox maximised, and Tabs go into the title bar.
On the other, Firefox runs in an unmaximised window, and tabs sit below the title bar.
This seems very silly.
Hey, developers, how about keeping the tabs in the title bar all the time? This is a good feature spoilt by this quirk.
How about changing it for the next update?

Getting rid or hide of the title bar without using jwidow

hi everyone,
is there any way to get rid or hide of the title bar in a Jframe without using JWindow because this one didn't conserve all the abilities a JFrame(listeners)...
thanks in advance

It is setUndecorated(true), but you'll need version 1.4 to use it. If you don't have it, then you use JWindow...

How to change the position of the title bar in XFCE?

I hate widescreens, but I bought one because only those are sold. There's a problem with them - The amount of text you can fit on the screen horizontally is quite low which means less lines of text and more scrolling. Also, I noticed that at least 50px is taken up by misc title bars and menus. There would be much more space if I got rid of them.
Unfortunately, getting rid of them is not an option. I need them. I was thinking that it perhaps would be possible to move the title bars of the windows to the side of the window. Mockup of how it would work included. Do you know of any such solution? That would really help.
Mockup: http://yfrog.com/j4screenshotesp

Already been requested ( http://xfce.wikia.com/wiki/Wish_List ) but not yet available AFAIK.

Can't drag windows around using the title bar-CS4

I just upgraded to CS4 at work last week and I'm already regretting it. Firstly, using two monitors, CS4 must like my graphics card becasue as soon as I open a document and it begins to render the window, the main monitor loses it's signal and cuts off. So I have to hard shut down and make my 2nd monitor the main one, open CS4 and a file on that monitor, then make it the 2nd monitor and pass it over to my real first monitor with a file open and make that monitor the main one again. Added to that, randomly, files will open as tabs even though I have the option unchecked in prefs. I hate tabs, I want my windows floating. But I digress.
My current issue is the file windows are not movable using the title bar. I can expand/contract every side grabbing the edge, but clicking, holding and dragging any of the title bar is ineffective. I can drag to tab to undock it, but once floating, the title bar is non-funtional for grabbing. I can also double click on it to tab, just not to drag.
I use a mac at home and thankfully Adobe hasn't forced the edge to edge palette background on that platform. On the mac we get a 'classic view' or something that does away with the desktop blocking grey window background. Seriously, I can't stand the full screen look. Why can't windows have that option to have just the menu bar, palettes and file windows allowing the desktop to be visible? /rant

A new video card is often a good idea if yours is over 2 years old. Even the modern "budget" (e.g., ~$100) cards are hugely powerful nowadays.

TextEdit won't let me rename duplicated .html files as a .html file (manually typing it) either in the Finder or the Title Bar by selecting Rename or Save.

TextEdit won't let me rename duplicated .html files as a .html file (manually typing it) either in the Finder or the Title Bar by selecting Rename or Save.
I am only able to rename a duplicated .html file right after I create it, because the file name gets highlighted in the Title Bar, but after that there is no recourse. I I can Rename or Save the file if I want to just save it as a .txt, but I need it to be .html. I guess I can manually change the file later, but it's really annoying.

I remember long ago a similar issue with TextEdit, but I can't remember if there was a solution or not.
Do you have it set to Display HTML files as HTML code and also deselect "When Saving a File: Add ".txt" extension to plain text files"

I want the tabs in the title bar on FF6.

In FF 4, 5, and 6, until today, the tabs were in the title bar where I want them to be. Now they are below the title bar. How do I get them back into the title bar? In about:config, browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar; true.

You would need an extension or code in userChrome.css to accomplish that.

How to customize the title bar on my own Look And Feel?

Hi all!
I am creating my own Look and Feel which extends from NimbusLookAndFeel. What I'm doing is overwriting UIDefaults values??, referring to the Painters. For example:
+uiDefault.put ("Button [Enabled]", new ButtonEnabledPainter());+
But now I need is to customize the title bar of the JFrame's, but I do not see this option in Painter's values ??can be overwritten by Nimbus (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/lookandfeel/_nimbusDefaults . html).
You know as possible? I have to overwrite an existing UI component? The idea is I want to make the look and feel like SeaGlass, but the code seems a bit complex to know where to begin.
I hope you can guide me on this issue.
Thank you very much for everything! And excuse my English!.

Changing color on the title bar

How can I during runtime change the color of the title bar? I want to flash the title bar to warn, but I haven't found the function to set the color of it yet...
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Andreas

since 1.4 you can use
JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated( true );
JDialog.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated( true );to get jframes and jdialogs looking like jinternalframes. but i don't know if it is now possible to change the color.

Removing the title bar

Hello,
I saw in an earlier post that it is much easier to remove the title bar
in 2.0 and that how to do it is in the documentation. Where would this
be documented? All I've figured out how to do so far is make the title
bar, title text, and banner bar be the same color as the background. So
they look invisible, except there is an icon that shows up even though
there is no reference to an icon.
Thanks,
Leila

Hi Leila.
If you edit your portlet through the admin tool - just don't specify a
title bar url or delete the one that is there. This will get rid of the
title bar.
