Hello Coders, (xcuse this is english? :-\)

I'm looking for a kind of "borderless (rimless) titlebarless menueless Windows Manager”, to show the Window content
of application windows in Full Screen Kiosk Mode (like Internet Explorer and/or Opera with the [F11] Key).
The menus of the Toolbar, Task borders should remain preserved thereby as fading in menus
(e.g. during mouse contact of the edges of screen, and/or context menu, with systrayoption etc.)


kind regards
@thehop

this AHK command: [WinSet, Style,..] can do what you want.. :) e.g. this snippet from the help file:
WinSet, Style, -0xC00000, A  ; Remove the active window's title bar (WS_CAPTION).

can produce this:

Ahh - looks very nice - thanks a Lot!  :)
 
... BUT goes this a little lesser - just only the window content :-[
so without the Borders - and the Menubar as Context or fade-in Menu - is there a Way to do this?

FullScreen is not absolutely necessary (F11 Kiosk KMode was just a example)
- my preferation is more to menuelesss, rimless (right word?) Application-Windows.


salü @thehop


BTW: A User in this (german) Forum http://www.essential...iewtopic.php?t=12821 compiled a AHK Script.

Ich habe das Script ein wenig erweitert.
1. Es wird zusätzlich nun auch die Menüleiste entfernt.
2. Der Menü- und Maximierungsstatus aller Fenster wird in einer temporären Datei (Scriptname.ahk.tmp im Arbeitsverzeichnis) gesichert und nach dem Verlassen der Vollansicht wiederhergestellt.
3. Strg+F11 als Shortcut: keine Kollision mit programmeigener Vollschirmfunktion und gut zu merken.

Kompilierte Exe+Source:
http://icfu.totalcmd...s/AHK_FullScreen.zip

FullScreen.ahk:
GroupAdd, Excludes, Windows Task-Manager ahk_class #32770
GroupAdd, Excludes, ahk_class _As12__TaskSwitchXP_TaskSwitchWnd_
GroupAdd, Excludes, ahk_class Progman
GroupAdd, Excludes, ahk_class Shell_TrayWnd

#IfWinNotActive, ahk_group Excludes

^F11::
Critical
hWnd := WinActive("A")
ToggleFullScreen(hWnd)
Return

ToggleFullScreen(ByRef hWnd)
{
  IniFile := A_ScriptName ".tmp"
  IniRead, Array, %IniFile%, Handles, %hWnd%, Empty
  If (Array="Empty")
    {
      hMenu := DllCall("GetMenu", "UInt", hWnd)
      WinGet, Maximized, MinMax
      DllCall("SetMenu", "UInt", hWnd, "UInt", 0)
      WinMaximize
      WinSet, Style, -0xC00000
      IniWrite, %hMenu%`,%Maximized%, %IniFile%, Handles, %hWnd%
    }
  Else
    {
      StringSplit, Array, Array, `,
      hMenu := Array1
      Maximized := Array2
      DllCall("SetMenu", "UInt", hWnd, "UInt", hMenu)
      If !(Maximized)
        {
          WinRestore
        }
      WinSet, Style, +0xC00000
      IniDelete, %IniFile%, Handles, %hWnd%
    }
}

you're welcome, @thehop.. i don't understand German but with Google's help, i see that the a user from that forum have made a script in AHK for you. but since i've yet to run FullScreen.ahk, i'd like to know what is the function lacking in that script? if you didn't want the fullscreen option, try commenting out the highlighted section in the image below..

ws-minmax-1_ver001.png

also among image viewers there is such a feature available in IrfanView.. check out the screenshots.. :)

Thanks for reminding me of these programs everyone!
I forgot about most of them.

Here's one that may work for you.
It has a lot in it, but it's main function is no border pictures full screen.

http://kometbomb.net/projects/viewer2/

I had to play with it for a while to see all it had.
Still not sure I know.

Fast Picture Viewer can be borderless too.

I'm not sure if you can view more then one single picture at a time with either.
Viewer2 can do a collage type view.
