LWJGL Forum

Hi everybody,

I am trying to make an applet being able to be fullscreen.
I tried this line of command:
try
      {
      Display.setFullscreen(true);
   }
   catch (Exception fdf){System.out.println(fdf);}

but it doesn't work.
please could you help me.
thanks a lot




here is the full code:

you can't

best bet is to create a new native display and make that go fullscreen - not tested ti tho

ok,
could you provide a sample code to switch from this applet to a fullscreen context?
I think the first applet context can be destroyed but i have  no idea how to perform it.
thanks
