OS X Configuration

The config.xml file controls an app's basic settings that apply across each application and CordovaWebView instance. This section details preferences that only apply to OS X builds. See The config.xml File for information on global configuration options.

Overview

Name	Default	Version	Comment
`HideMousePointer`	disabled	4.0.0	Sets the timeout for hiding the mouse pointer
`OSXLocalStoragePath`	`~/Library/Application Support/{bundle.id}`	4.0.0	Sets the local storage path
`WindowSize`	`auto`	4.0.0	Sets the size of the application window.
`EnableWebGL`	`false`	4.0.0	Enables WebGL on the web view.

Details

HideMousePointer

(integer, defaults to disabled) Idle duration in seconds after which the mouse pointer should be hidden. Set it to 0 for immediate.

Example: hide mouse pointer after 5 seconds:

<preference name="HideMousePointer" value="5"/>

OSXLocalStoragePath

(string, defaults to ~/Library/Application Support/{bundle.id}) Sets the directory for the local storage path.

Example: use custom path:

<preference name="OSXLocalStoragePath" value="~/.myapp/database"/>

WindowSize

(string, defaults to auto) Defines the size of the application window in the format WxH or the special values auto and fullscreen. The latter will open a borderless window spanning the entire desktop area. Please note, that this is different from the normal OS X fullscreen mode, which would never span multiple displays.

Example: set the window size to 800 x 400:

<preference name="WindowSize" value="800x400"/>

Note: The global cordova fullscreen preference is not supported.

EnableWebGL

(boolean, defaults to false) If set to true it enables WebGL on the webview.

Example: enable WebGL

<preference name="EnableWebGL" value="true" />
