Creating a Cocoa Full Screen Application

I want to create a Cocoa full-screen application, however my application is slightly different from a regular full-screen application.

This app will be below everything else, so under the menu bar and dock, etc. This will be a large image covering the desktop and icons, with a custom NSView in the middle with a table view, etc. If this concept is difficult to understand, then here is the image:

The only part that can be a bit confusing is the background image. This background image is NOT a computer wallpaper, but part of the application. Therefore, when the application starts, it enters full-screen mode and is placed under the dock and in the menu bar, as well as under all other windows. Therefore, he draws a background image to cover the screen (including the desktop and icons). Then the custom NSView in the middle contains my controls.

What is the best way to do this?

thanks

Make a window borderless, the size of the menu screen (screen 0- not [NSScreen mainScreen] ), located at 0.0, with the window level kCGDesktopWindowLevel.
