Can I exploit that bug too? :-)
But seriously, all the users I have contact with find
that status bar real annoying. Annoying to the point that
they are willing to look to Flash or other means to display
their panoramas. They are a fussy group and I struggle to
maintain Java's relevance to that group.
So does the Java2D group have any say about the status
bar or should I talk to another development group.
No need to grind on you if it's not in your purview...

I think they may be exploiting a bug fixed in the latest
versions.
On my jre (6uN) the window does show the warning.
Thanks,

Hi,
My applet at
http://pancyl.com
can go into fullscreen exclusive mode. F1 enters -- ESC exits.
When it goes into fullscreen exclusive mode using the 1.6 plugin,
there is a gray status bar at the bottom of the screen that says,
"Java Applet Window" A lot of people find this annoying. Fullscreen
exclusive should mean
FULLSCREEN! I've looked at java.awt.GraphicsDevice and this is the
method that
set's the bounds of the window.
public void setFullScreenWindow(Window w) {
// Get display mode before changing the full screen window
DisplayMode dm;
if (w == null) {
dm = null;
} else {
dm = getDisplayMode();
}
if (fullScreenWindow != null && windowedModeBounds != null) {
fullScreenWindow.setBounds(windowedModeBounds);
}
// Set the full screen window
fullScreenWindow = w;
if (fullScreenWindow != null) {
windowedModeBounds = fullScreenWindow.getBounds();
fullScreenWindow.setBounds(0, 0, dm.getWidth(),
dm.getHeight());
fullScreenWindow.setVisible(true);
fullScreenWindow.toFront();
}
}
I tried to write my own class to extend GraphicsDevice so I can
override setFullScreenWindow()
but I can't put it into the java.awt package. I get a security
warning at runtime.
I'm not smart enough or good enough to figure out a way to set the
bounds of the fullscreen window so that the status bar won't show.
However, someone has. Goto the URL below. You will see a gallery
of available panoramic images. They can be shown in Flash, Java or
Quicktime. Select one to show in Java. When you see that it's finished
loading, click the right button and enter fullscreen mode. You will see
that there is no status bar.
HOW DID THEY DO THAT??? Is this another secret environment variable?
I would like to know how to go into fullscreen mode without the status
bar showing.
