Flutter with two windows - windows

Programmatically open image full-screen in Windows 10

I'm trying to programmatically open an image from a folder and have it completely fill the screen, and it seems the only way to have an image completely fill the screen is to click the Slideshow button in Windows Photo Viewer and pause the slideshow. However, in Windows 10 it isn't even possible to programmatically open an image (at least, not via the command line, using either Windows Photo Viewer or Photos), let alone paused in slideshow mode.
If not the command-line, are there any other good programmatic solutions for what I want to do?

How to open any built-in app through application

my mac os application is running in full screen mode.
On button click i'm opening finder window which allow me to open any another file or application but problem is that, when i open any another app, screen switches back to xCode and that application opens. Need to open selected app/file above same window.
I have tried:
**[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] launchApplication:path];**
passing application path to launchAppication method
How can i do this?????

The issue is basically because using [NSView enterFullScreenMode:withOption:] will set the app's [NSWindow level] to kCGMaximumWindowLevel - 1, so that all other app's windows will appear behind it.
This is kinda what you would expect from a fullscreen app, which implies system-modal behaviour.
I guess the only way of allowing another app to appear in front of the fullscreen app would be to lower the window level, however I have no idea what effect that would have.

How to eliminate keynote to take over the whole screen in slideshow mode

We are building a Desktop app which has to activate keynote application on desktop automatically in slideshow mode.
The problem is that the slideshow is taking over the whole screen.
Is there a way to control the size of the keynote window in slideshow mode?
You can try SIMBL package and hook the functions of the window related to the full screen. You may use class dump to figure out what is going on in the Keynote app. However, you will meet another problems - your window is still without menu, you will be forced to handle resize events, etc.

Windows 7 taskbar tasks without a window in .Net

I'm trying to create an application for windows 7 that has taskbar tasks that are available even if there is no window like Media Player has.
I'm using the Windows API Code Pack and I've been able to add custom tasks but they are only available after a window is created and as soon as the window closes the tasks are removed.
Any idea how this can be achieved?
Make the window transparent? You can also have it minimized if it is ok.
