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!
New for Mac OS X 10.3:
CGDisplayErr CGCaptureAllDisplaysWithOptions(CGCaptureOptions options);
CGDisplayErr CGDisplayCaptureWithOptions(CGDirectDisplayID display,
CGCaptureOptions options);
Calling:
CGCaptureAllDisplaysWithOptions(kCGCaptureNoFill);
causes all displays to be captured, disables application switching and
most hot keys other than your app's, and 'freezes' the GUI for other
apps into a static image.
