FULLSCREEN OPTION

Fullscreen versions of the Space Update applications black out the computer desktop on launch, showing only the software interface. This is ideal for kiosk operation or anytime you do not want the user to have access to the desktop. Fullscreen versions of the applications are included in the archive online.

Simply run the "fullscreen" (FS) version of the application instead of the windowed version. Both can exist and run from the same location. However, to run past the 30-day demo period, the "fullscreen" version requires a registration key which can be purchased at our online store.

NOTE: The fullscreen Space Update software interface runs at its windowed resolution of 1024x768 and does not scale up to fill larger displays. You may wish to adjust your display resolution to more closely match this maximum size.
