I just looked at the [window_name]- and [sys_gui]-stuff...
Does anyone know if it's possible to hide the menubar (and taskbar)??
...would be cool for gui-things..

found this: http://puredata.info/downloads/fullscreen-plugin

Thanks,
actually there already is a way to make a window go fullscreen as described in the [window_name]-helpfile ..works for "windows" too..
I'd just like to have some little popup-windows without a menubar.

I guess, (no_menubar option) it not implemeted in tcl/tk -> http://wiki.tcl.tk/9457

the result of playing around with that I attached:

I looked at a similar list with similar results...
So there is nothing one can do here since pd is rendered with tcl/tk?!? ..On the hand there actually are pd-windows without a menubar, eg. all the menubar-windows like "Message.." or "Path...". ..hahaha, that's subtle irony...

Now .. this is a bit 'sneaky', but it seems to work !

Naturally, it comes with no warranty

Cool!
But if your press the hidebutton twice, its gone forever.

Ha ha ha!
Ok .. try this then .. you can probably modify it yourself anyhow :-0

By the way .. the fullscreen [ or is it fullsreen ] protocol doesn't work on X windows ..

but you probably knew that .. he he

wow, THANKS!!! This is fun-fuckin-tastic
You already have some skills with tcl/tk, don't you??
I just managed to rename the windows titlebar (or give it some animated text), and that easy stuff... Thanks, thanks, thanks!!!

Btw. just to make it complete: Is the same possible for the titlebar?? ..although yet I don't know if that's a good idea..

I have been fiddling with tcl/tk recently.
I'm interested in developing externals, and am still working on a 'function tracer' which should soon
be able to track dynamically loaded externals 'on the fly'.
I decided to make it a tk gui application, as it's much easier to choose the process (pid) and manipulate options etc. Unfortunately it's linux specific

I actually changed the code sent to sys_gui, as I first made it more complicate than necessary ..
and below, there's a less complicated fix for the bug that Gromit pointed out
