Exit x11 fullscreen mode

Hello,
I have Mac OS X 10.5.7 and recently installed x11 v2.0 I am just testing it in the full screen mode.
On my other mac 10.4.11 I can exit full screen mode and switch back to Desktop with (CMD H) but that does not work on the new system. Somebody suggested on Apple forum to use (CMD ,) but that does not work and only way I found to exit the full screen mode is to kill X from the shell. Is there a way to switch between x11 and Desktop?
Thanks,
Mark

I suggest you update your x11 to the latest version. the one that comes preinstalled with leopard is 2.1.6. The latest version you can get from macosforge is 2.3.0. in x 11 preferences->output check the box to enable full screen. next to it it will say that to toggle full screen on/off you enter commandoptionA. works for me.

X11 fullscreen mode broken in Leopard - fix available / planned?

Hello,

Is there already a fix available?
if not is a fix of this problem planned?
As we can see here: http://aaroniba.net/articles/x11-leopard.html it is possible to install Tigers X11, but I´d prefer a fix of the version, which comes with Leopard.

There is a fake way.
To fake fullscreen support with Xephyr:
$ Xephyr -ac -fullscreen :9 &
$ DISPLAY=:9 twm&
$ DISPLAY=:9 xterm &
It works ok on mine.

In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:

My iMac screen suddenly turn black and white when I'm in fullscreen mode. What could be the cause of this problem?

Hi, once in a while the screen on my 5K imac turns black and white when I'm on youtube watching videos in fullscreen mode. It also exits the fullscreen mode automatically from one second to the next and a warning pops up saying how I can exit the fullscreen mode. Does anyone have an idea why this happens and if this is a software or hardware problem?

I'm using a Dell laptop with Windows 7. I've set the resolution to 1024x768, though the maximum resolution on this can go as high as 1366x768. So this is a problem that no one has been able to figure out? I've ran lots of other Flash-based applications that went fullscreen with no problem, so I'm wondering what other methods there are to try, if possible.

"X" out of full screen mode apps without having to exit fullscreen mode

I would like to "X" out of full screen apps from the full-screen mode itself; without having to always exit manually out of fullscreen mode, and then X out in normal screen mode.

Full screen Apps use there own desktop system so there is no way to exit out of a Full screen app and leave that full screen mode running.
Now if you have more then one full screen app running when you exit one of them, IE Quit one of them, it may go to one of the others. That is IF you were using one of the others before you quit the current one.

"ESC" event keycode not detected in document.keydown listener while exiting fullscreen mode

I have a code to fire on exiting full screen mode.
Therefore, i bind it to :
# (window.document).keyup(function(e) {
# if(e.keyCode === 27 ) {
# // do something //
Now, When i am in fullscreen mode,
1. When i press "ESC", Fullscreen mode exits but my function does not gets fired.
2. When i press "ESC" after fullscreen mode have exited, My function gets fired.
That means "ESC" event was not propagated to code when browser was in fullscreen mode.
( * This works correctly in chrome )
3. This is bit too much too ask, but can i bind browser's exit full screen button which appears at the top ??

If you are using HTML5, I think the way to do is to bind with the fullscreen APIs that are still in''progress''. You could try these two links to see if that helps you
#[http://www.sitepoint.com/html5-full-screen-api/ HTML5 Full screen API]
#[https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:FullScreenAPI Mozilla support for fullscreen]
#[http://www.sagarganatra.com/2012/05/using-html5s-fullscreen-api.html HTML5 fullscreen API]
You could create an event listener for the document.cancelFullScreen() and then see if that helps.
Any specific reason why you want to bind to the button and not to the event?

How to stop exiting fullscreen mode

I am having a problem with a projector I just published for
Windows.
I am using AS2 Flash Player 8 because of all the bugs with
AS3.
My projector opens fine in fullscreen mode using
fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
On one frame I have a button that has fscommand("exec",
"myApp.exe"); This works fine as well.
The problem is that while launching the application my
projector leaves fullscreen mode and becomes a smaller window.
Is there any way to stop this from happening? I have
projectors that were created in Flash Player 6 where this problem
doesn't occur. I can't publish this in FP6 because it has FLVs.
Thanks in advance.

How to I get iPhoto to stop opening in fullscreen mode?

Every time I open iPhoto, it opens in fullscreen mode. It's as if there is a setting that has been set for it to do it(though I've checked the settings and there's no such thing). I usually exit fullscreen mode in the usual way and it cooperates, but then sure enough, the next time I open it up, it's in fullscreen mode again. Additionally, perhaps it is linked to this problem, everytime I open iPhoto, it tells me that "iPhoto has detected inconsistencies in your[my] library" and that I should "click Repair to avoid any potential problems". I've clicked repair numerous times but it still gives me the same message the next time I start the program. I've tried deleting the iPhoto plist file and that has not helped either.
Another side note that may be similar is that Terminal always opens in fullscreen just like iPhoto.

Alright, I fixed the problem!
A more in depth description of the process, some credit for its origins, why it works, and how else you can use it can be found here:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17269094#17269094
But basically, you do the following:
1. Navigate to "~/Library/Saved Application State/"
2. Find "com.apple.iPhoto.savedState"
3. Move it to the Trash
4. Launch iPhoto
Also, to solve the issue involving "Repairing" the Library, I had to navigate to the file "iPhoto library" (in ~/Users/dro8654/Pictures) and edit its "Sharing & Permissions" preferences such that only MY user was allowed to "Read & Write"
This discussion was what helped me with this:

In Lion, Safari pages hang in full screen mode. If you exit full screen mode, the next page you intended to view appears.

In Lion, Safari pages hang in full screen mode. If you exit full screen mode, the next page you intended to view appears.
This happens nearly every time I use Safari. I will be clicking on links, when it appears to hang. By exiting full screen mode, upon minimizing the next page I was intending to view appears. This does not happen on all websites, but many that I visit.

Here's a stupid question, but I'm sure I'm not the only one - how exactly DO you minimize the safari fullscreen mode?? I keep reading about orange or yellow tabs which don't exist, at least on my 27 iMac. Control m doesn't work either. I wish Apple would have a basic 3 or 4 page instruction manual on this. Unless there are major bugs still. By the way, this is only one of many problems I'm having with Safari. Occasionally the tool bar just dissappears. And, don't get me started about how the dock in Lion simply stopped accepting some icons, including Firefox. None of these problems happened when I first installed Lion. Each upgrade seems to have more bugs, not less.

Buttons not working in fullscreen mode

Hi everyone,
I have a site where our Flash content can be sent to fullscreen by the user. When in fullscreen mode, in some computers the buttons within the content and the mouse stop working completely. It still exits from fullscreen by clicking the escape buttons.
I have a Win XP computer where it works in Firefox and IE but won't work within Chrome. They both have the latest player installed.
I have a Windows Vista where it does not work in any browser.
On a Linux box (version 10,1,53,64) it works on any browser.
On another Win XP computer with version 10.0.45.2 it works with any browsers.
On some Macs it works, on some it doesn't.
The swf file was produced with Flash CS3.
Any ideas?

For that matter, the "return to menu" which is set to a Main button type, isn't working either. that is one of the three. After i had removed the damaged button and copied it from another it worked. Then i simply edited the text of a different button (mind you one that still works) and the "return to menu" quit along with the bottom 2 buttons. I just can't figure it out. I have shut the app down and restarted and nothing seems to be working

Problem with Fullscreen mode

Hello. I have problem with Fullscreen mode in Pages 09. Let me explain it. I launch Pages 09 on space nr 4, than i activate fullscreen mode and now when fullscreen is active i switch for example to space nr 2. And what happens? Pages also moves to space nr 2, but i don't want to move my pages to space nr 2. I guess it is a bug in Pages 09. Thank you for your advice.

Hi There
By the sounds of this behaviour you haven't set any space options for Pages within System Preferences (Expose and Spaces Pane). After experimenting with different options this is what I experience:
1. Pages not listed in application assignment in spaces Preferences - Enter full screen in pages, switch from one space to another pages window will follow and exit fullscreen (this sounds like what you are experiencing).
2. Pages set to every space in app assignment - Enter full screen in pages, switch from one space to another and pages will follow but wont exit full screen.
3. Pages set to a single space in app assignment - Enter full screen in pages, switch from one space to another using control and arrow keys pages will pull me back into the space it is set to and will exit fullscreen. Using the control and number keys pages will stay in its set space but upon returning to that space pages had exited fullscreen.
I suggest you add pages to the the spaces application assignment in System Preferences by clicking the plus arrow under the list of apps and select a specific space for pages to open in, once open Pages will only move from this space if you move it manually.
You can send your feedback to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html if you wish
Hope this helps

Sending .fdf file via email + exiting full screen mode

Hi everyone,
I have the following code attached to a button on a pdf form that sends the form data in a .fdf file via email:
var f = this.getField("useraddress");
this.mailForm(true, f.value, "", "", "RSVP");
Apparently the following line gets the user address from a field:
var f = this.getField("useraddress");
I created a field called "useraddress" and set it to be hidden but I don't know how to have my email address continually popuate this field so that it can be used in the above code to automatically send the .fdf file to my address.
Would someone be able to tell me how I'd do this?
Also just one other question if that's okay?
The pdf is set to open up in full screen mode automatically. I want to add a button that will take the viewer out of full screen mode but I'm not sure what the code would be to do this. Can someone tell me how to do this also?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yeah I probably should - I'm not that familiar with javascript so I didn't know I could. Have worked out the correct way now so thanks.
I also noticed that when the .fdf file is attached, Acrobat names the file with a generic file name, eg. ACR5037112.fdf - is there a way to automatically name the file with the contents of one of the fields in the form?
Also, do you have an idea of what the code would be to exit out of fullscreen mode when a button is clicked?

IPhoto 11: Any way of displaying the sidebar in fullscreen mode?

I find it really annoying that whenever I import an image or photo that I downloaded, iPhoto exits fullscreen mode.
Also, when I want to browse the photos in my iphone I also have to exit fullscreen mode.
Any chance Apple may add the option in a future upgrade?

No one outside of Apple knows what plans they have - if any - for iPhoto.

Everything disappears when I'm in Fullscreen Mode. What do I do?

I'm running a standalone EXE file via the Projector (or whatever it's called when you run a standalone EXE file made with Flash). It's NOT a web-based application. Every time I go to fullscreen mode, I just get a blank screen. All of the images are gone. However, if I press Esc to exit the full screen mode, then the pictures appear again. Is this a bug with Flash CS3?
This is what I put in the first frame of my movie in the 'actions' section:
import flash.system.fscommand;
import flash.display.Stage;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.displayState = "fullScreen";
stage['displayState'] = "fullScreen";
When I run the Flash program (as an exe file), the program goes fullscreen, but all of the elements on the stage disappear, leaving the screen blank. However, when I exit out of fullscreen mode (by pressing ESC) then everything looks like it's supposed to, with the images showing up and everything.
Is there any way to fix this?

I'm using a Dell laptop with Windows 7. I've set the resolution to 1024x768, though the maximum resolution on this can go as high as 1366x768. So this is a problem that no one has been able to figure out? I've ran lots of other Flash-based applications that went fullscreen with no problem, so I'm wondering what other methods there are to try, if possible.
