A bit of a newbie here... please pardon any exposed ignorance. :)
I'm looking for a way to own all user interactions. On certain
occasions I need to put up some UI that is systemically modal, I can't
allow any app switching or interaction with anything other than this UI
until it is dismissed by the user.
I thought that CGCaptureAllDisplays was my magic bullet. It blacks out
all screens, I can then display my UI above it but all that black is
way too abrupt. Unfortunately, there is no way to manipulate the
shielding layer. So what I'm looking for is something similar but
allows some manipulation of how it is displayed. If I could just make
that shield layer translucent... Is there any way? I tried a few
approaches but only got the black layer.
Any suggestions on other approaches would be most appreciated!
tia,
jeff
