Augmenting the RAP PDE-Templates to include an checkbox for "[ ] Fullscreen Application". Checking this would make the workbench window take the whole screen by using SWT.NO_TRIM and shell.setMaximized( true ) on the window's shell. See this url for background info: http://rapblog.innoopract.com/2007/11/hiding-window-in-rap-applications-one.html Credits go to Chris Aniszczyk for suggesting this. I can provide a patch that does this, but we should agree first: - if this is desirable (IMHO yes) - on which templates it should be available Elias.
This is a good candidate for bugday. But i don't think that we should only show NO_TRIM and maxmized use but also things done in eclipsediscovery.org to turn the coolbar into a "banner". Any other suggestions?
In reply to #1: If I recall correctly adding the "banner" was rather nasty, so I would rather propose *not* to have it in the template, as it might confuse new users. For reference I think it was something along these lines: http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.technology.rap/msg00794.html
The Mail Demo template now uses the business design (bug 288727), which is the preferred way to create a fullscreen application today. Please reopen if you think another template is needed.
