Isadora Full Screen/Kiosk Mode - Applescript for OS X

kithaigh

Thanks Mark, the script ran without error once I put the full path in. However, it doesn't seem to have changed anything - is there something else I need to do? Sorry to be dim!

In the meantime I did find a different route for hiding the menu bar - adding a couple of lines to the info.plist file as described in [this article](http://www.macworld.com/article/1055321/hidemenubar.html)

This does have the advantage that the menu reappears when you move the cursor up there with a mouse, but will always be inaccessible on a touch screen. The downside is that it's still possible to minimise or close the window accidentally by touching the top left corner.

Best wishes,

Kit

When you say " it doesn't seem to have changed anything" do you mean the window doesn't fill the screen? Or?

And what version of Mac OS are you using?

Sorry, yes I mean it looks exactly as it did before running the script - the menu bar is still visible, as is the frame around the Isadora window. I'm using 10.8.4 and a Lilliput USB touch screen monitor as the main screen showing the control panel, with 1 stage on an HDMI projector. The USB monitor has been a bit of a pain to be honest, but everything seems stable as it is now, so I'm reluctant to update anything…

Fullscreen-Mode is exactly what I am looking for. Is this also possible for Windows?

...is there a possibility for Windows now to get fullscreen of the controlwindow for using a touch screen???

Interesting - this is what I'm looking for too, and it's not working. Running the script doesn't change anything.

Yes sorry this was from 3/4 years ago. It probably needs updating.

I am revisiting this post - just wondering if this is possible for Windows as well as Mac?

Would still love an option for Windows!

Just adding to this....

A seperate pop out window for the control panel with full screen features would be amazing for kiosk style installations.

I am also wondering if there has been any further developments on this specifically on the Windows OS platform.

Not specifically, but with the addition of Python to the program now, one could likely whip something up with that.
