NAME

       glutFullScreen - requests that the current window be made full screen.

SYNTAX

       void glutFullScreen(void);

DESCRIPTION

       glutFullScreen requests that the current window be made full screen.  The exact semantics of what full screen means may vary by window sys-
       tem. The intent is to make the window as large as possible and disable any window decorations or borders added the window system. The  win-
       dow  width  and	height	are  not  guaranteed to be the same as the screen width and height, but that is the intent of making a window full
       screen.

       glutFullScreen is defined to work only on top-level windows.

       The glutFullScreen requests are not processed immediately. The request is executed after returning to the main event loop. This allows mul-
       tiple glutReshapeWindow, glutPositionWindow, and glutFullScreen requests to the same window to be coalesced.

       Subsequent glutReshapeWindow and glutPositionWindow requests on the window will disable the full screen status of the window.

X IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

       In the X implementation of GLUT, full screen is implemented by sizing and positioning the window to cover the entire screen and posting the
       _MOTIF_WM_HINTS property on the window requesting absolutely no decorations. Non-Motif window managers may not respond to _MOTIF_WM_HINTS.
