i can't be the only one who needs full screen

how do we get full screen mode now?  surely, this has already long been discussed but i can't find anything in the last year or so.  

a menu bar is certainly not full-screen mode and for installed art (running in some other city for a couple of months) PCs have too many problems to list.  we can't realistically expect galleries to run some sketch in presentation mode though.

i'm guessing the answer is hidden in these forums somewhere but it's lost in a camouflaged of 1000 other posts.

size(screen.width, screen.height);
Hold shift as you click "play".

Here is an example that allows export in full screen.

There is also a library for more fullscreen functionality.

thanks.

without that library, is there a way processing can reset the screen resolution?

On the fly... not that I'm aware of, but I'm fairly new to Processing so I may have missed something.

i had the same problem last year when developing a software and the only way i managed to use fullscreen the way i needed was with a library. i researched quite a lot to find something else, but it seems that this is the most efficient way so far; and it actually worked quite well, so it might be a good idea to give it a try.

there are some issues with that fullscreen library if you're using opengl stuff though. there are a couple other hacks to bypass them though, but it'll make you smash your head into the wall a few times to figure things out. just dropping the 2cents warning. Roll Eyes
