framing my app
Dec 13th, 2007, 11:28pm  
Hello,
I would like to be able to run my app with a black frame around it - filling the screen, something that will adjust to the size of the monitor with actually changing the size of my application. I've searched the forum for an answer to this question, but everything I find has to do with making the app fullscreen... which isn't what I am after. Any thoughts?

thanks,
the n00b

Hi, indeed the first thing that comes to mind is drawing this black frame in your app and run your app fullscreen.

Or you could simply embed your app in a web-browser, center it and set the background-color of the body to black, and then run your browser fullscreen (F11 key in Firefox).

fullscreen is what you are looking for .. i does not mean your app is going to be scaled to the screen, it means it's run ontop of a background without titlebar and menu (check --present and --bgcolor):

PApplet.main(java.lang.String[])

i do not recommend running it in a browser .. it might be a little slower (depending on your sketch) and just wastes computing power.
