A few weeks ago I sent a message regarding problems I was having with
manipulating a pfPipeWindow from the C++ interface. Specifically, I want
a borderless fullscreen window. I got a couple of replies pointing me to
the PFWIN_NOBORDER mode, but so far nothing has worked. Here is a code
snippet:

  // Initialize a full screen window
  pwin = new pfPipeWindow(pipe);
  pwin->setMode(PFWIN_NOBORDER, PF_ON);
  pwin->setFullScreen();
  pwin->setSize(1280,1024); // remove this, and I get minimal window
  pwin->setOrigin(0,0);
  pwin->open();

If I leave out this whole segment of code, Performer creates a full
screen window for me, but with a border. So, I make my own window and
open it. (This is occurring in the app process.) It appears that the
setMode and setFullScreen C++ methods have absolutely no effect
whatsoever. The setSize method works fine, though, but I don't want to
hardcode a specific size. If I remove the setSize call, I get a window
consisting entirely of window manager decorations.

I'm using Performer 2.1 on an R10000 Onyx iR.

Is this a bug in the C++ interface? Am I doing something wrong? Any help
would be appreciated.
