i have added a line to the code to remove the window frame:

that should work. but i cant test it because i dont have a windows box here. |

just gave it a go on my XP machine, and it works just fine 
however, when shown in fullScreen mode, the applet is placed in upper-left corner (0,0) ... it would be noce to have it centered! i tried to hack it myself (compiling it in the lib/export/ folder) by changing this line in:
Code:
to something like:
Code:
frame.setLocation(300, 300);
|

..compiled it, packed it up as a .jar file, and ran the the full-screen .bat file, but no luck, it still shows up at (0,0).
is this hackable (is that a word)

As Ben suggested elsewhere, you can use this in a less fussy way by just adding the main function to your usual sketch code.
Code:
// full-screen main function
// originally provided by michael05
static public void main(String args[]) {
try {
Frame frame = new Frame();
// !!!
// change this to your sketch name...
Class c = Class.forName("your_sketch_name");
BApplet applet = (BApplet) c.newInstance();
applet.init();
applet.start();
// get default screendevice and configuration
GraphicsDevice gd = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice ();
GraphicsConfiguration gc = gd.getDefaultConfiguration();
frame.setUndecorated(true);
frame.setBackground(Color.black);
frame.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
frame.add(applet);
frame.pack();
// test if fullscreen mode is available (jvm 1.4+) and activate it
if (gd.isFullScreenSupported()) {
gd.setFullScreenWindow(frame);
}
// test if display mode is available (jvm 1.4+) and set it to the
// size of the applet
if (gd.isDisplayChangeSupported()) {
gd.setDisplayMode(new DisplayMode(applet.g.width, applet.g.height, 32, 0));
}
frame.setLocation(0, 0);
frame.show();
applet.requestFocus();
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.exit(0);
}
});
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(1);
}
}
|

When you've exported the applet, make a .bat file in the applet directory containing...
Code:
start javaw -cp your_sketch_name.jar your_sketch_name
|
|
(Alt-F4 quits...)
If you set your applet dimensions to a normal screen resolution, it should switch modes. If not, it should be centred, because I changed:
Code:
frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
frame.add(applet, BorderLayout.CENTER);
|
|
to:
Code:
frame.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
frame.add(applet);
|
|
and the GridBag layout manager should centre your sketch.

You should also be able to make the jar file standalone...
Unzip it with your favourite zipping application, to a directory called your_sketch_name
Make a directory inside there called META-INF.
Make a text file called manifest.mf, and in it put the following:
Code:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: your_sketch_name
Classpath: ./your_sketch_name.jar
|
|
Now zip up the your_sketch_name directory and rename the new zip file to your_sketch_name.jar
I haven't tested this, but you should be able to double-click the jar file now (depends on your runtime setup). If not, at the very least you can do "java -jar your_sketch_name.jar" which saves a bit of typing

yeah, this works, though drop that classpath line, so:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: your_sketch_name
i've been using this for my own stuff and this will be part of the 'export to application' feature coming in the next big release.

thanks tom and ben,
however, the code you posted tom, is not working on my system (am i doing something wrong?)
i made a simple sketch called application_test, the code is this:
Code:
// full-screen main function edit by Tom Carden
// originally provided by michael05
static public void main(String args[]) {
try {
Frame frame = new Frame();
// !!!
// change this to your sketch name...
Class c = Class.forName("your_sketch_name");
BApplet applet = (BApplet) c.newInstance();
applet.init();
applet.start();
// get default screendevice and configuration
GraphicsDevice gd = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice ();
GraphicsConfiguration gc = gd.getDefaultConfiguration();
frame.setUndecorated(true);
frame.setBackground(Color.black);
frame.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
frame.add(applet);
frame.pack();
// test if fullscreen mode is available (jvm 1.4+) and activate it
if (gd.isFullScreenSupported()) {
gd.setFullScreenWindow(frame);
}
// test if display mode is available (jvm 1.4+) and set it to the
// size of the applet
if (gd.isDisplayChangeSupported()) {
gd.setDisplayMode(new DisplayMode(applet.g.width, applet.g.height, 32, 0));
}
frame.setLocation(0, 0);
frame.show();
applet.requestFocus();
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.exit(0);
}
});
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(1);
}
}
void setup(){
size(300, 300);
}
void loop(){
background((int)random(255));
}
|

i saved it, exported it and created a openApp.bat file using Textpad... the code in that is here:
Code:
start javaw -cp application_test.jar application_test
|
|
when i click it, the DOS window quickly flickers on my screen and then disappears... but nothing else happens! 
+ mikkel
( ps - exams on thursday, and of course i could do with showing my things using michael05's standAlone-hack ... but it would be soo much nicer to show my work on a big screen with no windows borders!)

*cough*
Code:

// change this to your sketch name...
Class c = Class.forName("your_sketch_name");
BApplet applet = (BApplet) c.newInstance();

I'm not sure if there's a way to pull this out automatically, so that the same function will do for all sketches...

ok, now i'm embarressed!!!
sorry, i am hacking some hectic last minute code before the first part of my exam this afternoon, i went the extremely laze route and just copy-pasted your code into my sketch... damn it, when do i learn to think before i speak (ie, read the code before i complain!)
thanks alot Tom! it fullscreens, centers as it should now! YEY!

i haven't thought of a method yet.. it's difficult since main() is a static method, so you can't use getClass().getName(), but maybe there's another reflection api method. would most appreciate if anyone were to find a solution.
for 'export to application', the little strip of main() code will just be inserted for you (like all the other magical things p5 does to your code to make it work as a real java program) but if there were a better way to do it..

hi all,
changed michael's and tom's version since i had trouble (not to mention the java 1.4+ thing) with mouse action not being passed on to the applet and i wanted it to trigger quicktimeplayer to show movies in fullscreen mode which made the screen switch back and forth all the time. ... it's os-x only for the moment, sorry.
code & example can be found here:
