Can anyone tell me how to create swing or awt components in Full Screen
Unfortunatly I think you’re going to run into a whole heap of problems trying to combine Swing components and a fullscreen window… I breifly messed around with it, decided it wasn’t worth the hastle and gave up :o I think the only way to do it (even though it seems like a terribly big hack) is to do your own drawing, then manually call paint() on your swing components to get them to draw over the top. This seems to work for the majority of the components (although JOptionPane is deeply uncooperative, so try and avoid that one- I had to stop the rendering loop and wait for it to be ok’ed before continuing, for obvious reasons).
I have also messed around with trying to use Swing in fullscreen mode. And it can be done as Orangy Tang says but with alot of trouble. Not all components can be used and you must manually call the swing components paint methods.
But if you are interested I can copy and paste some of my code to accompish this.
Thank and please post the code as I am really lost on this area.
