Running application in full screen mode

Hi, everyone. I want to write an application (extends JFrame) which runs in full screen mode. It normally runs as a window with minimize, maximize, and close buttons on the top right corner of the window. I want to run it in full screen mode, or at least disable the maximize button so that users are not allowed to resize the window.
Thanks a lot!

I have read throught the tutorial http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/extra/fullscreen/ . but it syas "full-screen exclusive mode is a powerful feature of J2SETM version 1.4" ==> is the the feature only in J2SE 1.4? Does J2SE 1.3.1 support this feature? (I am currently using J2SE1.3.1)

How can I run applications in full screen on my MacBook Pro?

I recently started using an external HP w1858 monitor as a secondary display with my MacBook Pro. I'm having troubles with running applications in full screen mode on the secondary display. How can I run applications in full screen mode on the secondary monitor?

If you always have the external display connected, you can configure the OS to consider it as the default or main display. Once everything is connected and set to your liking (resolution, color depth, etc.), "bless" the external display by clicking & dragging the menubar from the Mac's internal display onto the external. This only works if you are not using video mirroring.
Once this is done, applications will open by default on the external and now "main" display and you can configure them to go fullscreen or whatever.

Open the application in Full Screen Mode

Hi all,
I want my application to open in Full Screen Mode(same as when 'F11' key is pressed) after login button is clicked.
How can it be done in application express??
Can anyone help me??

Hi,
Make sure you add the code into the page's HTML Header setting:
<script type="text/javascript">
function maxWindow()
window.moveTo(0, 0);
if (document.all)
top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight);
else
if (document.layers || document.getElementById)
   if (top.window.outerHeight < screen.availHeight || top.window.outerWidth < screen.availWidth)
    top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;
    top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;
window.onload = maxWindow;
</script>I've done that here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:158]
Note that a user can stop javascript from resizing/repositioning the browser (I have this set in FireFox for example) - so this code may not work in those circumstances

MAM application in Full screen mode.

Hi All,
We are looking for making MAM application to startup in full screen mode by default in PDA.
We searched in SDN and found a procudere for this but for LAPTOP client how to acheive the same in PDA client.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Sai krishna. K

Hi,
well, we had this issue as well - it is not possible to tell the PDA to switch off the address bar by default. I have not checked all entries in REGISTRY - but there was a much more easy way.
If you have access to Visual Studio - it takes you 5minutes to solve that issue.
1.) create a project for PDA.
2.) place the browser control into the screen of the PDA
3.) change the settings and parameters so it fits your needs
4.) create the app
solved......
Reason: IE on the PDA is a control that is available by microsoft. Well, and if you write your own application you can place this control into any PDA app and you can size it in almost every way you like. The control has exactly the same functionality then the IE - but it is pre configurable - so you can get rid of your address and status bar for example. Furthermore with a little more coding, you can catch the backspace events from the keyboard and prevent the browser from browse one page back - what could cause issues.... but then you need to do some additional coding.
Only thing then: user needs to start your App instead of IE - but this should be ok I think.
Hope it helps.
If you stay with the original browser - then the user has to tab the screen until the option window opens and has to switch to full screen - .... well, not really what you like I think.
Regards,
Oliver

I can't restore my toolbars and the "full screen" mode button is NOT at the top right-hand corner of my browser (or anywhere else)

My toolbar and menu is gone from Firefox. I have tried closing the browser and opening new ones and all the suggestions in the help forums on this website (as well as several others). Pressing "alt", "F10", "F11" and SEVERAL other things have NOT helped.
There is no full screen mode button anywhere on my browser and when I put my cursor at the top of the window, NO menu options appear at all.
I normally would quit Firefox but the icon won't appear in my dock and my computer won't let me eject the application (to download again) because apparently it's in use (even when I've closed all windows).

F11 doesn't work on a Mac to toggle full screen mode.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

Start 3rd party application in full screen

I am a user of DXO Optics pro. It has a full screen option built into it. I always run this application in full screen mode. So to save on time I wonder if there is a way to ensure that every time I open it the application starts in full screen mode. I have tried a number of things like quiting in full screen and other things I have seen in prior versions of OS X to no avail.
Thanks for any pointers in advance!

Instead of trying to set the size based on your screen's resolution, why dont you try something like this:

CS6 Full Screen Mode Feature Needed.

Hello Community,
I bought the CS6 Master Collection about a year ago and was surprised that I was unable to put Photoshop, FlashBuilder or any other CS6 application in full screen mode like my other Mac applications do. The only thing I can do is resize the application window and hide the dock.
Is there going to be an update to show support for CS6 users and allow us to use these programs in full screen mode? I think it would be fantastic if that happened. Then I could use hand gestures on my track pad or mouse to switch between applications that I have currently running all while staying in full screen mode within each one.
I'm thankful for Retina screen support but a larger canvas is ideal for creative development in my opinion. I work on the 15" Retina MacBookPro primarily because I'm so dang mobile in my work/lifestyle and I value every square inch of the screen.
Adobe Please Give Us (CS6 users) Full Screen Mode.
BTW: I still consider my self a new user as I'm still learning how to use these applications. If by some small chance there is already a way to do this please respond and tell me how. Thanks.
~ Troy.

CS6 is feature complete and will not see any new features.

No alt key access to top menus in full screen mode Ps CS5 Ext?

I'm using the trial version of CS5 on a Win7 machine, after using Ps CS3 for a fair amount of time. When painting in Ps, I am almost always in full screen mode. In CS3, you could be in full screen mode and hit the alt key plus the active letter of a top bar menu, like F for File or T for Filter or W for Window, and that menu would appear, and you could hit subsequent active letters to get the associated function. I used alt+I then E then H to flip the canvas horizontally. Super quick and awesome! Now the E has been changed to a G, but no matter. The big deal is that in full screen mode, this no longer works! I just get an error sound when I hit the alt and I button together. I have to hit Tab to bring up the menus and palettes before I can use the alt + top menu letter functionality.
Is this an oversight, or is there functionality to disabling this hotkey use when in full screen mode?
Any ideas? Should I put this in the feature request forum?
Thanks!

Hmmmm....
When NOT in full screen mode, people on this forum sometimes complain that the Alt modifier key is activating the menus and causing subsequent operations for which they're using Alt (e.g., zoom out) to irritatingly trigger the Windows "ding" sound.
Notably when IN full screen mode that's not happening with CS5 because the Alt key simply doesn't activate the menus.
Interesting thought...
Perhaps Adobe made it work this way on purpose so that they could tell people complaining about the first issue to run Photoshop in Full Screen mode. That's just a guess.
As a workaround to your issue, you could of course expand the Photoshop window to be very close to the full size of the screen and just keep running it as a Window, rather than using full screen mode at all. Yes, I realize this isn't a fix, but just a possible workaround until such time (if ever) Adobe gets around to fixing the modifier keys to work properly (again). I have chosen to use Photoshop this way myself, and other than wasting a bit of screen space it seems to be a pretty decent workaround to using F mode.
Funny thing is it seemed Adobe had the modifier keys working pretty much properly in Photoshop CS4. I wonder why they changed it.

IPad Web App full screen mode Network Connectivity Retry Option

Hi,
I have developed a web application in HTML5 for iPad (full screen mode). Now I am testing the application on iPad for connectivity scenario i.e. to see how the app behaves when the connectivity is lost and then resumed after some time.
Steps -
Launch the web application in full screen mode from home screen (connected to a wifi network).
Click on any button to submit the form and at the same time turn off external wifi modem.
A pop-up message appears with the options to close or retry.
Now turn on the modem and click on retry.
The expectation is that on clicking retry the data in the web form should be sent to the web server, but instead of POST request, a GET request is being sent. Because of this, the data filled in the form is lost as the page is simply refreshed.
Can anyone please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks

This is more of a feature of the browser already.
With iOS6, Mobile Safari on the iPhone introduced full-screen browsing support in landscape mode.
http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-57513848-285/how-to-use-safaris-full-screen-mode-on-io s-6/
One isn't able to take advantage of this feature in portrait mode though. However, the meta tag you're referring to in order to hide Safari UI Components requires the webapp to be added to the Homescreen; then when you launch the site through the icon on the Homescreen, you would find the UI components hidden.
Also, the latest version of Chrome for iOS released a couple of days ago includes the ability to view pages in fullscreen as well (for both landscape and portrait modes) with scrolling gestures enabling the hiding and showing of the omnibox and toolbar while navigating down a page.

Why is my macbook pro spontaneously swiping out of full screen mode?

I have a 2 week old 13 inch MBP retina (256GB, 8GB ram, 2.5GHz Intel Core i5, Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 768 MB, OSX 10.8.2) which was working fine until yesterday. I have accounts on it for each of my 3 kids, one for my wife, and one for me. When using any application in full screen mode, it now spontaneously swipes itself back to the blank desktop "space" after less than a minute. It previously worked as expected in full screen mode, and currently works fine when viewing applications without the full screen mode. Then, today it started displaying my log-in screen with inverted colors (color negative). The colors revert to normal immediately after logging in. This all initially started after accidentally clicking the airplay icon while my apple TV was off, and then exiting airplay mode...which may be unrelated. My youngest is also a bit of a keyboard masher, so he may have changed a setting with a keystroke combination. Any ideas? I have tried rebooting, and I even tried Shift-Control-Option-Power while plugged in with the power off (SMC reset?). Here's a pic of the color inversion:

I don't see a screen shot, as promised, in your original post - maybe if you post a screen shot and indicate exactly what happened before the screen inversion someone could be of help.
Most of the time when folks don't answer your queries around here we either don't understand the problem/question completely or not enough information is given to understand the problem.

Creative Cloud menu and OSX Full screen mode

I recently uninstalled CS6 and installed the Creative Cloud version of all the Adobe CS apps on my computer the other day. So far, I like it, and that part if things is working well.
However, there is this annoying behaviour that I would like to fix if I could...
On a Mac it's possible to put an application into full screen mode and then use a swipe gesture to move between fullscreen apps. Whenever I do that, and then swipe back to the desktop, the Creative Cloud menu insists on dropping down on the main desktop screen... Every. Single. Time.
I then have to click the CC menu bar icon to get rid of it. Again, Every. Single. Time.
Because I use fullscreen gestures a lot, this continual dropdown of the CC menu is starting to get REALLY annoying.
Anyone come across this before? Do you know how to stop it doing it?

Jaredtorres the original issue disucssed in this discussion was addressed on 7/15/13. You can find the current release notes listed at Creative Cloud app for desktop | Release Notes - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/release-note/cc-release-notes.html. By default, after updating, the Creative Cloud Desktop application will also be in Window mode.

How to switch to full screen faster and change between applications in full screen faster

Hi, my problem is that when I switch any application to full screen it does a little animation which spends a little time before getting to the full screen mode. The other problem is that when I change between applications in full screen mode it also does a little animation!
How can I eliminate those annoying ways of losing time?
I hope and thank very much your answers!

sure man, after all the help i got, why not give some in return...
to make it full screen on oppening i put this code on the 1st frame:
fscommand("fullscreen", "true")
i also make 2 buttons for making the screen smaller and bigger again, for both i used the following
on (release) {
fscommand("fullscreen", "false")
this is for making it smaller, and for full screen i used "true" instead of "false"
of course i added a button foe exit with the follownig code:
on (release) {
fscommand("quit")
hope i helped...

Starting Java app in full-screen mode.

How can I start a Java application in full screen mode?

Did you mean Full Screen Exclusive Mode (so that you can do page flipping, etc...)?

Satellite P750 - No cursor available in full screen mode

Yes, that's the problem and I can't fix it in any way at all.
I'm on Win 7 Home Premium of course.... and when I go to full screen mode (F11, for examle, or apps like Win Media Centre), I just cannot bring my curson to appear in any way at all....
I've tried everything, but absolutely cant navigate without a curson in WinMedia Centre.

Hello
I agree with Tonny. This option is disabled by default and I always leave it disabled because its irritating. If this option is disabled the mouse is always visible if you use applications in full screen mode.
If it doesnt help check the advanced mouse settings (advanced tab > Advanced feature setting) and return the settings to default by clicking on default button.
