I want to have a functional menubar in a window which is displayed when the displays are captured.

OK, now that we have the question out of the way, I need a way to put a menubar into a window in a cocoa application. Any pointers?

What I have done in the past for this is drop the screen size down to 800x600 and put the app in the upper left of the screen. That solved it for me.

SDL does that, too. The result is that all the open windows on my Mac are messed up, and I have to take a 5mins timeout every time after quitting the fullscreen app to move them back into position again (those are the times I'd like to have an ion port for Mac OS X).
When a captured display's resolution is changed, the windows don't move. As an additional bonus, the resolution is automatically restored when the applications suddenly terminates (via cmd+opt+esc or just crashing). In short, your solution is not quite optimal.


Maybe you could switch to a different GUI solution altogether, like CEGUI <http://www.cegui.org.uk>?
