full window

I have a application that should cover the whole monitor (not just max state
of the window). It should also cover the desktop status bar below the
monitor. How can i do so?

Simply do the following
public class SomeForm: System.Windows. Forms.Form {

public void FullScreen() {
Visible = false;
FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle .None;
WindowState = FormWindowState .Maximized;
Visible = true;
}
}

Just to add to Ashura's reply. Note that you won't have a caption bar,
so make sure you have some other way to close the window (a context
menu, for example).

I have pull-down menus in javascript and I have the code for opening a link in a new window. But I want it to open a full-sized window. I can't figure out the syntax. What I have so far: Menu5_5_1=new Array("'Lonely Church","javascript:window.open ('http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=2640310')","",0,20,300); That works fine, except I can't figure out how to modify it to make it open full-screen.

Hi I am trying to write a python script to run on windows xp that will have a full screen gui. The script has a function that creates a full screen (hides task bar) top level window using tkinter. If I close the window and call the function a 2nd time the resulting window is full screen, but does not hide the task bar this time.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
