Hi Satya,

The problem is, I am unable to display the frame on top of Apple Menubar and Dock.

There is the Java "full-screen exclusive" API, but I'm not sure if that fits your needs ("desktop mode"). You could at least have a look:

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/extra/fullscreen/exclusivemode.html

I've used the following code with success under Java 6 on OS X 10.5:

JFrame frame = ...

GraphicsEnvironment environment = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();

GraphicsDevice device = environment.getDefaultScreenDevice();

if (!device.isFullScreenSupported()) {

// Out of luck (but I've never seen this happen on OS X)

}

else {

frame.setUndecorated(true);

device.setFullScreenWindow(frame);

}

As an alternative, using JNI/Rococoa you can hide the menu bar (with the side effect of also hiding the Dock) using NSMenu.setMenuBarVisible(false).

Regards,
