GC 8.3.1 - Full screen

Post by Robert Poland »

Thorsten, I know how to click on the double arrows in the upper right corner to go to full screen and go further to the top right corner to click on the double arrows and return to previous view. BUT the more conventional is to hit the escape key to exit full screen. I guess this is a feature request… TIA, Robert Poland - Fort Collins, CO

Hello Robert, Full screen is handled by the Mac OS since 10.7.x.

Hi Robert, normally the same way. The standard keyboard events are handled by the Mac OS for that functions.

Hi Robert, I rechecked. esc is also used to deselect the current selection since version 5.

Are you then blocking the escape key? On Nov 17, 2012, at 12:20 AM, Thorsten Lemke <lemke@lemkesoft.de> wrote: > Hi Robert, > > normally the same way.

Hello, my event handler is just catching the key first.
