Full screen mode in PSX

Hi,

I made a search in the manual and in the forum before asking here.

As I understand, PSX is only available in windowed mode and there is no full screen mode.

Is that correct?

Is it because of the java technology?

Well, about as close as it gets is maximize the window in PSX, then open the Instructor station to Preferences -- basics and click the option under Miscellaneous to hide the Show title, border and buttons of flight deck frame.  And if you really want it clean uncheck the box for Show info tags.

That's pretty close to full screen.

Cheers,

Jon,

Many thanks for the tip!

Technically, maybe it is not "true" fullscreen, but visually it serves perfectly my purpose.

Also, if you're using Windows, right-click the taskbar at the bottom of the desktop and select "Properties", and then check the "auto-hide" option to make the taskbar only show up if you move the mouse cursor down into the now-hidden taskbar area.

This way, you won't have the Windows task bar showing while you're enjoying PSX.
Best wishes,
