help me .. gnome

The General · 04-11-2006, 11:16 PM

theres a cool feature in KDE that i like ... and thats the ability to hide a window's window border. i especially like this for watching movies, where the window border is pointless. is there any way to do this in gnome? i've been poking around the internet and couldnt find anything.

thanks

use a player like mplayer

The General · 04-12-2006, 06:49 PM

yeah thats one solution, but theres no way to hide a window border? cause there are other uses also like windowed gaming

Dont know, what does the gnome docs say? I dont use gnome or kde so Ive never looked it up.

If you are using totem, press F for no border fullscreen

i know, i want to remove the window border but i dont want it full screen

i am using totem, and i know all the shortcuts 1 2 0 f h space yeah anyway, it has to be possible, i just cant figure it out

ill take a screenshot in kde if you guys dont know what im talking about.

i need to hide the window border, so that the video and the video only IS the window. i'll have to hold alt and click it to move it

I don't know if you can do that with totem... Try using mplayer as horndude said. Why would you want a borderless window?

its not the player, i want to know how to hide the window border on any program, like i can in kde
