Description Alex Blewitt

2011-07-22 09:23:43 EDT

Build Identifier: 

Lion has support for full-screen applications. It would  be great if this could be added to SWT so that Eclipse could support it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Run app on Lion
Note that the full-screen expand widget is not in place

I believe this is the important document:

http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSWindow_Class/Reference/Reference.html


This constant indicates that a window is in fullscreen mode.

enum {
   NSFullScreenWindowMask = 1 << 14
};


There's also some options on the NSApplication which can inform whether it's in fullscreen mode (or not). There's a blog here:

Comment 2 Alex Blewitt

This command will give full screen access on the primary monitor:

    [window setCollectionBehavior:NSWindowCollectionBehaviorFullScreenPrimary];

It can run on non-primary monitors with:

    [window setCollectionBehavior:NSWindowCollectionBehaviorFullScreenAuxiliary];

Comment 3 Alex Blewitt

Note that all the pieces are already in the SWT implementation to support this:


		Shell shell = window.getShell();
		NSWindow nswindow = shell.view.window();
		nswindow.setCollectionBehavior(1<<7);
