Creating a Full screen window?
June 14, 2002 02:35 PM
Hi guys, I''ve got a question here... how do you create a full-screen window, with the client area of the window the size of the screen, from top to bottom? I used this code:
But it still creates a window that has an empty title bar at the top. The window is the size of the screen as it should be, but I don''t want a title bar. How do you do this?

Try adding WS_POPUP to the style parameter of the CreateWindowEx call. And if you want to put an icon in the tray for alt-tabbing purposes, add WS_SYSMENU as well.

How so? Bear in mind, the icon in the tray won''t manifest unless you alt tab out of the fullscreen app.

Shell_NotifyIcon, if you mean SysTray.

Yes I meant the task bar - however in some of the docs the task bar is refered to as the tray - the older docs moreso. Here''s the snippet that I referenced when initially answering the question:
This is from the ''donuts'' demo that shipped with an older version of the DirectX SDK. I had been playing around with it the day before so it was handy.
WS_VISIBLE | // so we don''t have to call ShowWindow WS_POPUP | // non-app window WS_SYSMENU, // so we get an icon in the tray This is from the ''donuts'' demo that shipped with an older version of the DirectX SDK. I had been playing around with it the day before so it was handy.
