Avoiding expose animation for NSWindow


  • Subject: Avoiding expose animation for NSWindow
  • From: Matt <email@hidden>

I'm trying to create a borderless window which acts as a mask for the
desktop, sitting one level above the icons and staying in place as the
user works and switches between other apps and spaces. Most of this
behavior I can get with -setCollectionBehavior and -setLevel, but the
problem I'm having is getting the NSWindow to _not_ animate when
expose's various animations trigger (eg, Reveal Desktop). In this case
I need the window to behave the same as the dock or the desktop itself
would, staying in place while the other windows animate over it.

I have poked around in the kiosk tech notes as was recently mentioned
as well as the major classes involved but can't seem to find how to go
about achieving this effect?

Any pointers or advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much,
-Matt
