hide menubar

Type

command

Summary

Hides the menu bar on Mac OS systems.

Syntax

hide menubar

Description

Use the hide menubar command to use the full screen. For example, in a kiosk or multimedia application, the menu bar is a distraction for users and in this case you may prefer to hide it.

The menu bar can be hidden only on Mac OS and OS X systems. On OS X systems, the hide menubar command also hides the Dock. This command has no effect on Windows or Unix systems.

Hiding the menu bar in LiveCode does not affect its appearance in other applications; if the user switches to another application, the menu bar becomes visible. If the user switches back to LiveCode, the menu bar is hidden again.
