Hello, The best way (as far as I know the only way) to get an app to full screen in X, is to drop the resolution (assuming you have many modelines defined) to the resolution of the app, or the smalelst resolution a little larger, then to "position" the display correctly. The big problem is accidently moving the mouse, and thereby shifting the screen.
Some apps support locking the mouse into the window, some apps do all this automatically. Is there a way to lock the mouse into a window without that app specifically supporting it internally? That would help a lot to begin with, but ultimately I'd like to have/write a little program/script, possibly built into a window manager (I'll temporarly switch to another WM if necessary, but I'd prefer support for this in windowmaker ;), that, given a window handle or id or whatever its called in X, will automatically drop the resolution to the best size, lock the mouse cursor into the window, and if possible, "position" the display correctly. Any ideas? Thanks, Hugo van der Merwe
