Thanks Eric,

actually setting "the systemWindow to true" and the "hide menubar"  I
experience some problems:

1 - when I click on the desktop or on another application  I get the menu
of the finder or the menubar of the other application.

1 - when I click on another application  I get the menu of  the other
application even .

2- even if I click on the rev application I can not activate the rev
application and I am stucked. I can only click on buttons of the rev
application.

3 - I do not see the dialog windows (eg command answer "jhjh" )

Best regards from Padova (30 chilometers far from Venice)
