Mac OS fullscreen mode : menu bar and Dock appearing in game

[iClan|makizmaidrug]

Hi !
It's good to be able to play another Homeworld game on Mac ! :D
The only issue I have is that the menu bar and the Dock keep appearing in game when panning the camera up or down. I've had this issue with every application/game using the builtin fullscreen mode but it's especially annoying on an RTS like Homeworld :/
Does anyone know of a good way to prevent the UI from getting in the way while still playing in fullscreen ?
Thanks !

I’m seeing the same issue on El Capitan 10.11.6.
I think that because the program is using OSX’s built-in “fullscreen” mode, there’s no way to stop this from happening.
However, I’ve found a hack around this.

Open a Terminal and run this command:

`defaults write com.apple.Dock autohide-delay -float 15; killall Dock`

This will make the dock show after 15 seconds of being on its side of the screen, which in game terms means you won’t often run into this. Adjust as necessary.

To restore after playing, run:
`defaults delete com.apple.Dock autohide-delay; killall Dock`

That takes care of the dock. Unfortunately the menubar setting no longer works after Yosemite.
However, if you have a second display, you can disable showing the menubar on the second display by going to System Preferences -> Mission Control -> unselect “Displays have separate Spaces” This should then take care of both problems.

If you’re running on an older OSX, you can still use this technique:

`defaults write "Apple Global Domain" com.apple.springing.delay -int 15`

Log out and back in. This is a bit hacky, but hopefully it’ll work for you.

To revert, run this:

`defaults delete “Apple Global Domain” com.apple.springing.delay`

Log out, and back in.

the problem with appearing dock and window title bar still exists – it's so frustrating and hacking doc in the terminal too... nothing more can be done with this bug?!
