Yes that is true does not disable screen manager

Well as far as I can tell there is no way to load a standalone panel using
[DISPLAY] etc
because if you use AXIS or Touchy they interpret that as a request for embedded.
but if you add this command to a HAL file:
loadusr -Wn gladevcp gladevcp -c gladevcp -m True -g +0+0 gvcp-panel.glade
it will move the panel to 0,0 and maximize it. if the position 0,0 is on
another monitor
then it will maximize it there - it depends on how your screens are set up.
If 0,0 in your main screen then -g is unnecessary, it will maximize it there
anyways.
Touchy has this same ability built in now.
Axis could with Dewey's script for .axisrc though I haven't tried it.

One can maximize the windows yes. but not full screen - I never researched that.
Touchy already maximizes, but you can move it first then force it to maximize
in the new spot ( same idea as gladevcp)
It would be nice to have AXIS have this built in - its a bit of a hack right
now.
But the user can still close the windows etc.
In theory on should be able to intercept the GTK signals - for instance
destroy_event
and ignore them
Also if you ask for the main window to not be decorated I believe the controls
are not
visible
What would be best (for GTK based windows) is if we overloaded a special main
window
widget that was specifically tailored for locking the user out / position and
size etc.
