I need to create a JWindow that covers the entire screen on Mac OS 9.x (i.e. MRJ 2.2.4). The standard JWindow cannot be positioned over the menu bar. Is there some way using native code (or JDirect) that I can get it to cover the entire screen?

I assume I'll hit this same problem with Mac OS X. Will the same solution work there?

Your best solution on both platforms is to use QuickTime for Java, which has a FullScreenWindow that does exactly what you want. The next best solution is to write the JDirect wrappers for that yourself and call QuickTime's BeginFullScreen()/EndFullScreen() functions. The next best solution to that one is to use HideMenuBar()/ShowMenuBar() in the Menu Manager.

All of those should work on both 9 and X.

Hope this helps,
Eric
