In gtk+, you do: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gdk/gdk-Windows.html#gdk-window-fullscreen So my suggestion is, get a decent toolkit ;-) Alternatively, you have to use the window manager specification to change the state of the window, see: http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/1.3/ar01s05.html#id2523638 PS: there are gtk+ bindings for java... -- Gustavo J.
