How do I enable full screen mode in my CodeWarrior IDE?

To change your CodeWarrior IDE to full screen mode:

  1. The Eclipse full screen plugin is available at http://code.google.com/p/eclipse-fullscreen/ web address.
  2. Download the zip file.
  3. Extract the cn.pande.eclipsex.fullscreen_<version>.jar file from the zip file you have downloaded.
  4. Copy the extracted jar file in the <CWInstallDir>\CW MCU v10.x\eclipse\plugins folder, where <CWInstallDir> is the installation directory of your CodeWarrior software.

    The full screen mode option is now available in your CodeWarrior Eclipse IDE.

To use the full screen mode feature:

  1. Open the CodeWarrior IDE.
  2. Select Window > Full Screen from the IDE menu bar, alternatively, press Ctrl+Alt+Z to switch to the full screen mode.
