That's actually what I'm doing at the moment:
NSApplicationPresentationOptions options =
NSApplicationPresentationHideDock +
NSApplicationPresentationDisableProcessSwitching +
NSApplicationPresentationHideMenuBar;
NSNumber *presentationOptions = [NSNumber numberWithUnsignedLong:options];
NSArray *keys = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"NSFullScreenModeAllScreens",
@"NSFullScreenModeApplicationPresentationOptions", nil];
NSArray *values = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES],
presentationOptions, nil];
NSDictionary *fullScreenOptions = [[NSDictionary alloc]
initWithObjects:values forKeys:keys];
[glView_ enterFullScreenMode:[NSScreen mainScreen]
withOptions:fullScreenOptions];
There are a few problems:
- The F4 key still allows process switching (Kiosk mode bug with
NSApplicationPresentationDisableProcessSwitching; radar ID 12358575)
- The function keys still pass through to the system (iTunes, brightness, etc.)
The application is for toddlers
(https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/toddler-typer/id566326332?mt=12). Several
months of use and feedback show that they find and find joy from pressing the
keys that pass through to the system. Since I'm trying to create an environment
where they won't mess up anything on the computer, I don't really want them
switching processes, etc.
I tried to subclass NSApplication to capture the system keys, but they are
dispatched to the system regardless of what I do therein.
Hence, I was trying to capture the screen. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Clay
