I love how Safari and Terminal will expand into a full screen window and into their own space in the developer preview for OS X Lion. Is there a way to get iTunes to act in the same manner? I know there's a special screensaver mode that only works with Lion, which makes me think this should be possible.

(For those who don't know what I'm talking about, if you click a blue "expand" button in the upper right on Terminal/Safari it will move into its own space, full screen and with no toolbar, similar to an app on iOS ... to get to these spaces you have to gesture left and right)

This question would be more useful if you rephrased it so that it wasn't specific to iTunes. – Lri Apr 10 '11 at 18:22
I already formatted my Lion partition and never tried it out, but they could've already added AppleScript support for full screen. Try for example running properties of window 1 of app "Safari". Is there's anything that looks promising? – Lri Apr 10 '11 at 18:22
Why would anyone close this question? Absolutely valid one, was looking for an answer on Google and got here. Weird. – Ilya Birman May 12 '11 at 6:30

This question is unlikely to ever help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

I don't have Lion, but as I haven't heard anyone say iTunes has been ported from Carbon to Cocoa, I would expect this feature is Cocoa only and therefore iTunes can't do it.

This question likely has a very limited audience with the relevant experience. – JRobert Apr 10 '11 at 17:25
It's missing from many Cocoa apps too — TextEdit and Finder for example. – Lri Apr 10 '11 at 18:08
