How do I hide the dock and menu completely

General

Hi there.

Quick question… just like my last one (ha ha).

I am trying to have a complete full screen. No menu bar, no dock.

When I set the window menubar to NONE, and in the app set the menubar to NIL

app.menubar = NIL

In all of the windows, Document and Sheet style, I set it to NONE in the

Menus -> Menu Bar -> NONE

and the File / Edit… etc will go away. But I still see the program menu bar. The same with the Dock.

I have gone through the threads I could find, and people are doing things like calling NSUI… stuff, but I am not that great programmer to use the NS stuff.

Any ideas?

Regards

Thank you for the response.

However setting the window(s) (i have 3) to fullscreen in the IDE does not remove the menubar or dock.

Copy/Paste the following in Google and good luck:

XCode: How do I hide the dock and menu

the page does not appears in dark mode / I cannot really read it, but as far as I understand, they expose the macOS command to hide the MenuBar and the Dock.
You “only” need to translate it to Xojo Declare.

@Michael_Cebasek - is there a particular platform you’re aiming for?

Yes, but are you only compiling for macOS, or are you looking for a solution for Windows and/or Linux as well?

Hi Greg.

Currently I am NOT looking for Windows or Linux. Just Mac.
