Hi I just purchased MaxGUi. I was wondering if there's any command that allows the window to be full screen (not maximize)?

Hey guys,

I'm trying to use an HTMLView in a FullScreen game. I'm having a lot of the issues mentioned here. I also need it to work seamlessly on Macs and PCs (I'm testing on Mac OS X Leopard, MacBook Pro).

Has anyone had any luck with this?? Please let me know!

AFAIK, if you are running a fullscreen graphics context on Mac you can't show *any* GUI environment at all - it is locked out. For instance, a File Requester won't open when you are fullscreen.

You will need to come out of fullscreen to show things like that, I believe.
