[Non IE Regression] Support for full screen mode with multiple monitors

This seems to be a regression with Flash Player v11.2.202.x (for all other browsers).
With Internet Explorer it is still working.

== Support for full screen mode with multiple monitors ==
Full screen content will remain in full-screen on secondary monitors, allowing users to watch full-screen content while working on another display.
Tested on Windows 7 x64 SP1 with:
- Internet Explorer 9
- Firefox Release, Beta, Aurora, Nightly
- Opera 12 build 1116
In bugbase.adobe.com I cannot choose v11.2.x

Please vote for it If you have the same problem:

Listen for Full Screen mode

I have a FLVPlayer with a skin on stage and I want to listen for the player going into full screen mode when the skin's fullscreen button is clicked. And I want to listen for it going back to normal but I think that is easy enough, I just listen for the escape key, I think. How do I do that?

not the browser
im using a stand alone swf player

Full Screen Mode with Window Tabs? (Mac)

I have never been able to use Full Screen Mode / Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar because my Window Tabs disappear.
Until now I have ignored this but I really want to start making the most of my screen space. I don't understand how people can go into full screen mode without tabs of their open documents. It makes the experience completely useless to me and I can't believe I can't find any solutions online. I feel like I am overlooking a simple button somewhere on the screen thinking "surely Adobe would include this!?"
Please help.
I am currently on 13 inch MacBook Pro using CS6 beta.

Thanks for the reply, but I already know of this 'workaround', and it isn't a solution for me. There is no functionality in cycling through windows with no idea when you will arrive at the correct PSD. I usually have quite a few open at the same time and I am constantly skipping between them nice and simply with the tabs...Please Adobe just add an option for tabs, all the other components of the layout are optional in full screen, why not tabs?
Putting in a feature request for tabs in full screen mode is a good idea. One thing Photoshop could do in full screen mode is reveal the menu bar and tabs when the mouse is near the top of the screen. This is sort of an ad-hoc standard in tabbed apps like Chrome and Firefox. Even Adobe Photoshop Lightroom reveals the menu bar in this way, but Photoshop continues to use the same full screen behavior that it had back in the 1990s, when it was one of the few full-screen apps available.
One workaround is to turn off Window > Application Frame, and when you're in full screen mode use Lion's Mission Control to pick a specific window. This works even better if you use or assign a shortcut to view the windows of a single application.

how does everyone else cope?
As a career-long Mac-user I am not accustomed to tabs and therefore don’t need or use them.
Tabs have been in Mac apps, such as Apple Safari and Final Cut Pro, for many years.

Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar -blue

For some reason the 'Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar' option has a blue background now. The background used to be gray, and then one time i opened up Photoshop and now the background is blue. It is very annoying and affects my painting. The grey was neutral, now it is blue so my colors are going to appear off.
If you don't know what i mean: Open Photoshop, make a canvas (new image) Hit the key "F" on your keyboard 2 times so the canvas takes up the entire page but the menu bars are still up. The color around the canvas is Blue, when it has ALWAYS been gray.
Please someone tell me how to fix this.

I found out a solution. If anybody ever encounters this problem just right click on the background and select Gray. :)

Full Screen mode and two monitors

I consider this an oddity in Lion. I have two monitors. If I have Mail open in the left one and let's say Address book on the right one, and I put Mail into full screen mode, the other monitor goes gray. So . . . no way to have one monitor in full screen mode and still use the second monitor!

This is Apple's warped sense of humor about how full screen should work. Aparrently the designer only uses tablets so has no clue how the real world works.
This is totally hated by most power users but, alas, Apple aren't doing anything about fixing this patently broken design, let alone admitting that they could have made a mistake.
Your options are to either put up with it or back out to Snow Leopard.

Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar view mode appears with Blue Background??

Can someone please help me figure out what I did exactly to unintentionally change the "Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar" view mode so that it now appears with a Blue Background, instead of the default gray one....and better yet, can someone let me know how I can switch it back to displaying the default gray background instead?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!

>let me know how I can switch it back to displaying the default gray background
SHIFT-Click the Paint Bucket pool in that area using the gray of your choice (e.g. 132, 132, 132).
(That's probably what you did to turn it blue.)
Or, more drastically, you can trash your preferences.

PS CS6, Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar, Zoom, Brush, Auto Pan

There seems to be a functionality that was lost (or I can't find it) in CS6 that was in earlier versions. When I am In Full Screen Mode with Menu and the image I am editing is zoomed in, I used to be able to shift+click my brush to extend a line. That line would automatically reposition the image when I got to the edge of the screen. Does anyone know if that functionality is gone or do I need to turn "something on”?
1. I open a file
2. I ender Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar
3. I enlarge the photo so that its boundaries are beyond the edge of the screen
4. I enter mask mode (doesn't matter what mode)
5. With my brush tool I start to paint a line by holding the "shift" key and "left-click"
6. I get to the edge of the screen
* this is where PS would reposition the image automatically and I could keep painting my line

Having screen rendering / memory problems with Microsoft Outlook 2013 and full screen mode with large 2560x1440 dual monitors

MS Outlook 2013 seems to work fine for a while until a) enough time passes or b) I have multiple MS Outlook windows open. Then I start to see all sorts of graphical issues ranging from certain parts of the outlook window not rendering to certain functions
locking etc. Occassionally, when I decrease from full screen I get the screens to render correctly, making me think there's something unique with full screen mode that is causing the issue. There seems to me to be quite a bit of memory issues
with this version.
I have a beast of a graphics card, 32gb of RAM, and a fast SSD, so don't think its the machine.
Thoughts?

Hi,
Does this happen to other applications?
If it's specific to Outlook, consider to check the hardware acceleration option:
Go to FILE tab -> Options -> Advanced -> Display -> Disable hardware graphics acceleration, turn this option on or off to check the result.
If the issue persists, please also consider whether any 3rd-party add-ins are interfering with Outlook, we can start Outlook in Safe Mode:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
If there's no problem in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which caused the problem.

In full screen mode (with "Hide Toolbars" selected), is there a way to make FF stop bumping the page up and down everytime I move the mouse to the top of the screen to reveal/hide the toolbar?

In other words, is there a way to make FF behave like IE9 in full screen mode where the toolbar appears "over" the page rather than pushing the page down?

Hello,
Could you please elaborate what exactly you are referring to with "I can't get the link to diplay as a different colour"?
Regarding your second query, I am afraid it is not possible using Adobe Muse. However it can be a very nice feature request.
I would suggest you to post this as a feature request on our "Ideas for features in Adobe Muse" section of the forums : http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas

Full screen mode with VB

Hello everyone,
I'm working on a small MS Access database for maintaining and displaying spareparts.
I have two ActiveX-controls with "Adobe PDF Reader " in the OLE-property.
I have already managed to display the PDFs needed there. Now I need to access the "open in full screen mode" - property in the PDF-documents, so they are displayed without any bars etc.
I have linked the AcroPDF.dll but I did't find a solution with it.
The users of the database will only have the Acrobat Reader on their systems.
Thanks for your help in advnace
Regards
Roman

Hello,
thanks for your replies.
The Acobat SDK is available on the machines where the PDF-files are linked to the database.
With "PDdoc.SetPageMode 1" I have already eliminated the bookmarks in my Active-X-control.
But is it also possible to set the "open with fullscreen"- or "open fit to with"-parameter in the documnets options?
I just found solutions with a java-script in the document.
Thanks & regards

Remove "Open in Full Screen mode" from multiple files

Hi there,
I just discovered today that I could use Javascript with Acrobat.
I download a lot of ebooks from a certain website that has them all set to open in Full Screen mode. (Properties > Initial View > Windows Options > [x] Open in Full Screen mode)
I could fix a lot of stuff that was annoying me with ebooks from this site, but I can't seem to find anything to disable the full screen thingie...
I tried these commands that I found, but they didn't do the job :
app.fs.isFullScreen = false;app.fullscreen = false;this.fs.isFullScreen = falsev;this.fullscreen = false;
Thanks,
Simo
PS : Using Actobat X

Thank you both for your replies.
With Acrobat Pro you can set the Initial View through the batch process.
Would you mind explaining how to do this for a noob like me?
Thanks,
Simo

Full screen mode with two displays ?

I use a second Apple Display with my iMac. When you enter into "full screen" with an app with Lion does it only become full screen on one of your displays leaving the other screen un-effected? Or, does it black out the other screen?
When you are in full screen mode can you place windows from the full screen app on the other display that is not in full screen mode?
Thanks.
Eli

@captfred.
I'm still running 10.6.
I find it strange that iPhoto 8.1 has the ability to enter full screen without disabling or effecting the other display. You can even take a separate iphoto window, the effects window for example, and drag it to the other display. All while in full screen mode. Does this functionality disappear in Lion?
Is this behavior app specific?

Full screen mode with dual screen

I have a Macbook Pro and use a second screen. I do like the new full screen feature but the app (safari, chrome, opera, firefox etc...) will only full screen with the primary screen (macbook screen). Really defeats the point of having two screens and having the full screen feature combined.
Any resolutions or is there a new update coming?
In Summary:
Full screen mode will only work on your primary monitor and not a separate screen. Please help.

Known issue.
Hopefully, it'll be fixed in a future update.

Full screen mode with zoom tools

With a PDF that defaults to opening in Full Screen mode, is it possible to make the zoom in and out tools show by default so that the user doesn't have to use keyboard shortcuts?

CtDave,
I already considered doing that, but some pages are quite long which means I'd need maybe 3 pairs of zoom buttons on those pages so that they would still be visible as the user is scrolling. That adds a lot of clutter. I was hoping there was a way to give users a 'floating' zoom in/out bar that would be available as they scrolled down through the page, similar to the navigation buttons that can be made visible in full screen mode if turned on in preferences.

Full screen issues with dual monitors in safari.

I have my 21 inch iMac connected to my 42" panasonic LCD TV. Up until recently I've been watching TV via my sling box back in the states. (I'm a soldier stationed in Germany). When I go to a full screen mode in Safari, I get full screen in my iMac and not the TV. Even when the window is in the TV. This never happened before, it's almost as if the iMac sees the TV but makes all full screen video available only on itself rather than where ever the window may be. Safari help tells me I can choose where I want full screen by swiping on the magic mouse, but I can't get it to work. How do I get my video to stay on my TV when I double click on the video instead of having it jump back to the iMac?

Reading your post full screen mode is working as Apple intended it to. When you set full screen mode on an app that has the ability it makes it full screen on the Mac and any other monitor is left blank while viewing that app. Currently there are no adjustments to change this. I would recommend providing feedback to Apple at www.apple.com/feedback to let them know what you anticipated.
