I read a comment in another hint, in which a user wanted to disable the onscreen displays in Preview, so they could lecture without the obtrusive controls.
So I cobbled two scripts together. It no doubt disables bevels on other things, too, and it is not for the faint hearted. Please back up your files before trying it!
To turn off the bevels:
do shell script "cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Slideshow.framework/Versions/A/Resources/;
mkdir backup;
mv *.tif backup/;
cd English.lproj/; cp Localizable.strings archived.Localizable.strings;
cat Localizable.strings | sed 's%<string>[^<]*</string>%<string></string>%g' > Localizable.strings2;
mv Localizable.strings2 Localizable.strings;" with administrator privilegesand to restore them:
do shell script "cd /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Slideshow.framework/Versions/A/Resources/backup/;
mv *.tif ../;
cd ..;
cd English.lproj/; mv archived.Localizable.strings Localizable.strings;" with administrator privilegesThese have only been tested on 10.4.4 and 10.4.5. Any suggesitions on how to make this a single script would be appreciated -- as you can see, they're more like Terminal scripts.
[robg adds: I haven't tested this one, and please heed the warnings if you do try it -- these scripts move and copy files, though notuhing is deleted.]
