Does anyone know how this might be done?
Matt,
If this goes back to your previous post about wanting to do a Carbon
based saver then the short answer is that you probably don't want to do
that, even if you can figure it out. Security and all.
But, there may be a workaround if all you want to do is allow your code
to be seen and the screensaver's view is jumping on top of you. Just
set your Cocoa saver's view to be completely transparent. We do this in
Fluid so that we can recapture the desktop when we reset at regular
intervals. Works like a charm and the saver engine is still in control
of things.
I don't know if that will solve your problem or just create new ones,
but it might be worth a try.
