Anyone know of a way to make applications use fullscreen mode. I am setting up a Mac for an Art exhibition and I want to somehow set the program to click into full screen display. I have seen this done before but am not sure exactly how to do it. My guess is it is application specific.


Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, the app must have that feature.

What exactly are you trying to view fullscreen?

ICab has a nice Kiosk mode that views web pages and pictures full screen and I believe won't let people out without a password, which is a good idea.

I downloaded iCab, but it will not open the HTML file that has the Shockwave Piece embedded in it. Opera will open it but it will not let me choose fullscreen. Shame.
