Override built-in "exit full screen"method

Hi!
Is it possible to override the built-in "Exit Full Screen"-method provided by JavaFX?
To be more precise, when the application is in full screen mode and a user presses the ESC-key, I want to do something else than the default implementation.
I tried the following but somehow, always the default implementation kicks in and my own implementation does not become executed.
public void handle(KeyEvent ke) {
if ((ke.getCode() == KeyCode.ESCAPE) && (stage.isFullScreen() == true)) {
// do something....
}

No

  • Unable to exit full screen mode from any app

    Hi,
    I just upgraded to Mountain Lion today and I noticed something wrong. In Lion I used to be able to exit full screen mode from any app by pressing esc or clicking the exit full screen mode button on the top right corner of the screen. Now neither of those seem to work, in fact the menu bar doesn't even come up when I get the cursor to the top of the screen. Tried this on many apps, some system apps, always the same. The only way I found that works is pressing fn + ctrl + F2 (or ctrl + F2 depending on the function keys setting).
    I checked the console and found this message appears whenever I go into full screen
    WindowServer[79]: CGXRegisterWindowWithSystemStatusBar: window 10 already registered
    Anyone having the same issue?
    Any solutions found?
    MacBook Pro 5,1
    Processor  2,8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512 MB
    Software  OS X 10.8 (12A269)

    Thanks for replying so fast.
    I tried a couple more times and now the esc key method seems to be working, maybe it the cursor focus had something to do with it not working earlier.
    But I still can't get the menu bar to drop down when I get to the top of the screen.
    Did a PRAM reset, but no cigar.
    Do you mean reinstalling over the current installation or installing fresh and recovering from a time machine backup?
    In any case I think I'll wait a little bit more before I do any of that, it really bothers me to have to reinstall the whole system to fix something as insignificant as this. It's still a little annoying though.

  • IPhoto:  I clicked Enter Full Screen by mistake, now I can't get out of it. The button in View to exit full screen does not work.  I cannot see any other way to exit full screen.  In full screen, I cannot see my events, nor can I do any quick fixes.

    I accidentally got into Full Screen mode in iPhoto, and can't figure out how to get out of it.  The last item in View is unresponsive (Exit full Screen).  I've looked online but can't find any way to get out of iPhoto full screen--no arrows show on top right or bottom right.  I cannot find 'events' or crop photos, the only option I have is to scroll through a certain number of photos that I don't want to see.  Please, I just want to get out of Full screen mode.  Please help.  Thanks.

    Give this a try:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try full screen again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • How to permanently disable this message: "Press Esc to exit full screen." (by Adobe Flash Player) in Mac's Safari Browser?

    Hello everyone,
    I have been searching for sometime (without any success) for a solution to permanently remove this annoying message: "Press Esc to exit full screen."
    Whenever I go to full screen mode, watching any video on YouTube, BBC, CNN (or many other websites which use Adobe Flash Player for streaming video) I have to bare seeing this message for several seconds until it fades away. Seeing this message once or twice would have been okay, but as we all watch many videos on a daily basis on internet, after weeks, months and now years seeing this message over and over again many times every day, it becomes very annoying, and I find myself rewinding many videos to their beginning after this message fades away to be able to watch it from the beginning without anything obstructing it!
    Does anyone know how to "permanently" disable this message from appearing?
    I am using the latest version of Safari 6.0 on the latest version of OS X (Mountain Lion 10.8.1), and have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (Plug-in version 11.4.402.265) installed on my new MacBook Pro 15" with Retina Display.
    Thanks,

    Thanks Carolyn,
    I am attaching a screenshot here for you to see that this setting was already set to what you suggested. I didn't need to change it as it was like this even before I post this message.
    So the problem still presists and unfortunately your suggestion is not a solution to this probelm.
    Last night I did more reseach and found a discussion in Adobe website, it seems a lot of other people have the same issue, and even started a discussion in Adobe website about it. But unfortunately Adobe refuses to address it and enable the end user at least to have an option to turn this message off from displaying permanently on his/her computer.
    I am writing down the url links for the two posts regarding this issue on Adobe's website:
    Link #1: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/921270
    Link #2: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3058752
    Hopefully more people will get involved and ultimately we will either get Adobe's attention, or someone will find a "hack" and post it here for all of us. I have found some suggested "hacks" for Windows environment (you can simply google it, I am sure you will find them too). But so far I haven't seen anything for Mac's Safari browser.
    Cheers,

  • How to exit full screen mode mail message

    Inexplicably, when i open messages in Mail, they appear in something like full screen mode.   The message viewer window is not in full screen mode, but if i open any message, the message takes up the whole screen. I can drag the message in order to see other things on the desktop, but i can't adjust the size of the window to the size i want, and see no way of exiting full screen mode. I lookd in Help, but it only shows how to enter Full Screen, not how to exit it. 
    In the View menu, there is an option to enter full screen.  When i have the full screen sized message open on top, the enter full screen option in the View menu is greyed out.  If i have the normal sized window for the message viewer window on top, the enter full screen is not grayed out and could be selected.  I do not select it since there appears to be no 'exit full screen' option that i can see and i don't want to multiply this problem.
    I know this might be a silly question, but if they have an enter full screen option, why wouldn't they also have an exit full screen option? 
    Or is there an exit full screen option which exists somewhere that i have not been able to find?  I've searched Apple Discussions and Google but so far have not found a way to un-full screen my Mail messages.  This started this morning.
    Can anyone help?  
    I do not know how it got into full screen mode.  It was not something i did deliberately or knowingly.
    i have tried quitting and restarting Mail but the full screen message mode returns. 
    How can i get my mail messages out of this very annoying and awkward screen hogging mode?
    I have only been using Mail since last November when i got a new MBP with Mountain Lion, which meant that for the first time since 1995, i could not use the simple straightforward faultless Eudroa anymore.  So i have had my struggles with Mail.  Trying to get through it.  This is the most recent of various similar issues, inexplicable problems without apparent solutions.  Sort of Microsoft-like.
    I will be really grateful for any help.. thanks

    Press Control + Command + F on your keyboard to enter or exit full screen mode.

  • Exiting full screen shows desktop for a second

    Hi all,
    Just installed Mountain Lion, and all is fine, except for maybe one thing.  If I'm editing a picture in full-screen (not the "full-screen" for the entire application, but the full-screen of the picture (by hitting the "F" key)), when I exit that mode (by hitting "F" again), for a second, I see my desktop. 
    A bit weird.  Any ideas about this?
    Thanks.

    Just for clarity, "f" issues the command "View➞Fullscreen".  That command makes the Aperture application "full-screen" as defined by the OS.  There is not (and has not been since at least 3.0, when I started using Aperture) any Viewer or Browser or Project View mode that is "full-screen".  There is one and only one full-screen mode, and that is for the entire app.  (In fact, you can enter full-screen mode from the Browser, the Viewer, Split View, or Projects View.  There is no default Split View in full-screen mode, but if you enter full-screen mode from Split View, and immediately exit full-screen mode, you will be returned to Split View.
    And a bonus for turbidity: I am not seeing my Desktop when entering or exiting Aperture's full-screen mode.  3.3.2 on 10.8.  I see a sliding-application-window transition.  The area outside the application window is black.

  • I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. How to fix

    I was using the newest version on OSX 10.7.5 and I was in full screen mode and viewing a photo and it was impossible to exit full screen. This happened at 11:03pm on Friday April 12, 2013. I deleted this from my apps and then deleted iphoto from my purchases in macbook app store the search it the app store and it says it has still been installed. What can I do to fix it?

    Well deleting it from your machine was not the way to go.
    Deleting it from your Purchases List was definitely not the way to go.
    So, I'm not really sure how you're going to reinstall it.
    But figure that out and we can try help. Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They should be able to get it back on your purchases list so you can reinstall it.

  • 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.

  • Firefox page stop refreshing(drawing) when the flash plugin exit full screen mode.

    While watching youtube video from youtube.com in full screen mode (this is flash player full screen mode, not browser full screen mode), if you exit the full screen mode, some times the original page when the full screen was started from would stop drawing, not responding to the mouse click in the page area. The page will go back to normal if you click and drag the firefox browser title bar or just resize the browser window.
    I initially found this issue with our company's browser plugin product when testing on Firefox 4. Then I went on trying the same scenario with youtube flash player, it is the same behavior.
    It is not difficult to reproduce, if exiting full screen works fine, move the browser window a little bit and try it again. I can reproduce this once every 5 - 10 times. It is very annoying.
    The same test case works on Safari, Google Chrome without any problem. Please fix this!

    Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

  • How to exit Full screen view to same photo

    How can you go back to same photo that you viewed in Full Screen instead of the first photo in the file. Each time I use Full Screen or Compare 2 photos, when I exit, Elements goes back to 1st photo in the file. Then I have to scroll back to where I was viewing photos. There was no problem in Elements 9 on these features.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Are you still having a problem?
    I'm assuming that you are using PSE 11.
    Which operating system are you using?
    In the organizer, if you select an image, switch to full screen and the exit without doing anything, does the selection stay in the same place or move to the start?
    Does it matter what type of image it is?
    Are you using the Esc key to exit full screen mode?

  • Flash Player 10.1 - Projector exits full screen when opening an external PDF via FSCommand

    I am finding that when I am in Full Screen mode and launching a PDF via a FSCommand, the projector will exit full screen mode.
    I remember this being an issue in Flash Player 9, but 10 resolved the issue. Recently, with 10.1, the issue has come back.
    For the full screen, I am using the code below on the first frame.
    fscommand("fullscreen", "true");
    fscommand("allowscale", "True");
    Thanks.
    - Mike

    Praveen,
    Im in the same boat. - Im trying to open a mac projector .app from inside another .app by using Fscommand "exec".
    After reading this
    http://www.morgadinho.org/2007/03/12/launching-an-app-with-fscommand-on-mac-os-x/
    have created applescripts with .app extension inside Fscommand folder, but to no avail.
    Have heard anything/ had any resolution yet?

  • "Press esc to exit full screen mode" stays on screen, wont disappear, I have to refresh page many times

    Windows 7
    using firefox
    adobe flash player 16.0.0.305
    I have tried many things and with this new computer build I did not want to try any of the 3rd party fixes for this issue. I see a ton of posts regarding this issue some referring to the problem as the creator of the game or video, some referring to Why is this still an issue why hasn't this been fixed its been years.....
    So I am starting a new discussion as I cant find any relevant in time fixes for my issue all I see is over two years old with no real fixes for the issue. So I hope I am just missing it.
    Anyways here is the issue I would love to just disable it make it go away entirely. I know I need to press esc to exit full screen mode. Most of the time it does disappear and that would be fine too but while I am watching hulu videos in my queue and escaping between full screen mode and normal mode to add next show to queue and then going to next show in queue sometimes I have to refresh the page to make the bubble disappear.
    Is there anything I can do? and I quote many users before me in stating "Why is this stilll an issue?"

    Hmmm lets see well in reply to your answer and comments. I only use firefox. I wrote an app about 6 months which without any user intervention could really mess up chrome. I could download passwords from chrome unencrypted so I do not use chrome I avoid it like the plaugue. Internet Explorer kind of the same issue but in reverse seems to be pretty secure but huge and klunky. So I only use firefox. I just refreshed it which fixed an issue I was having with a sign on issue with swagbucks ext add on not remembering who I am and so on. I will see if this has any effect.
    To continue on this issue though if you know hulu at all. If I pick the next show I want to watch manually, which would technically load a new web page as a "refresh" It always disappears, However if I use the queue option or auto watch mode I really don't know how to properly discribe this. If I just let it finish a show and it automatically picks the next show. Then I assume that flash player programming is causing the web page change and so somehow yes the webpage changes but the "refresh" does not occur or inother words the flash player keeps running doesn't get refreshed and over time several things occure. If i watch about 5 shows in this automated matter flash starts to really eat up my memory and then the esc message starts to not disappear.
    Also randomly I can not tell which ads cause this of course, I would love to be able to give you or hulu more info but There is an add that gets ready to play during a show. This add causes my antivirus to throw a fit and blocks it, then flash player crashes I would assume because of the failure to load the add and play it.
    I understand your description of why it is the way it is and that makes since. But for us wire cutters or cable cancelers, I watch tv through online use and for whatever reason flash is the only option. and having to get off my couch and go over to my computer to refresh the webpage and or reload cause of crashes is getting old.

  • After update to Firefox 25, tabs will "go back" 2 to 3 pages, when switching tabs or exiting full screen.

    It happens most frequently when exiting full screen from a video. i.e. youtube, dailymotion, nbc.com - any site with embedded video players.
    When exiting full screen, the page skips backwards 2 to 3 pages. And no, I'm not clicking related videos while in full screen the whole time - this is while initiating full screen and exiting full screen, all from the same video page.
    This happens less frequently when switching tabs - but if I switch to another tab, then back, the first tab will load the page I was on 2 pages ago.
    More info: When this happens, the "forward arrow" is greyed out and the page that that loads is on the "back arrow" list twice - further down the list where it should be, as well as at the very top of the list, as though I had clicked on a link to that page.
    This all started immediately upon restarting Firefox after updating to version 25 - no other changes have been made to my computer.

    Thanks for the canned responses, but you guys are way off.
    More information: It's related to HTML5 - whenever I fullscreen an HTML5 video, Firefox skips backwards to the most recent HTML5 video before that one, when exiting fullscreen. This last time, it skipped backwards past 4 pages that had no HTML5 content at all, to the one that did.
