Safari Full Screen Page Displacement Issue, Scrolling Artefact.

Hi, there
I really want to make Safari my default browser, it seems like nearly the perfect balance between Firefox and Chrome. I have had a few issues with Safari, though. Once I upgraded to Lion, I decided to give Safari another try. It was very unstable and had weird graphical artefacts when scrolling (ie, the text would sort of copy down the page as I scrolled up.) I decided to switch back to Firefox/Aurora, but recently I chose to give Safari another shot seeing as there had been many software updates for Lion. Anyway, I found that after installing certain extensions, I had the weird scrolling artefact come back. So I've removed the offending extensions, and now that issue seems to be fixed.
I have this other weird issue where for what ever reason, whether it's when I switch tabs or spaces (I'm unsure), the pages I've loaded in tabs will scroll up about 30 pixels (the height of the horizontal tab bar), and I can't scroll up any further. That means that it cuts off 30px of the header on YouTube and various other websites. The only way to fix/correctly re-align the pages, is to hit refresh or exit/re-enter full screen mode. I just find this annoying, it only happens in full screen mode.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

  • Safari Full Screen Page Width Customization Feature Missing

    Let me explain the title.
    In the previous Safari version, when you were in Full Screen viewing mode, you were able to set the width of the webpage you're browsing by hovering the mouse on either left or right edge of the screen, then clicking and dragging the cursor towards the center to set the width for the webpage. Now, in the latest version, this feature seems to be gone.
    Now, why would you need this feature, you ask? Simple: some webpages, such as Wikipedia, are coded to always use the browser's full viewing width, thus making the paragraphs really really wide. The problem is that the human eye will have dificulty reading those really wide lines of texts, especially if they're huge paragraphs. Narrower paragraph widths are much easier to read. You can actually test this by viewing a Wikipedia page NOT in the Full Screen mode by comparing a wide Safari window compared to a narrower one. (This is actually the reason why they use narrow text collumns in news papers; easier to read.)
    Apple, PLEASE bring that feature back. I don't for the life of me understand why you keep making inferior upgrades to a lot of your products: the Preview app (no more loop when viewing pictures in Full Screen Presentation mode), MacBook Pro Retina & iMacs & Apple Cinema Displays (no Anti-GLARE option) …

    I have to agree that it was a very useful feature.
    A very smart browser it was...

  • Is there a way to view Safari full screen in Leopard?

    Is there a way to view Safari full screen in Leopard without auto-hiding the dock? I've already tried searching the forums but could not find much on it or an answer to if it can be done or not. Thanks for any help.

    You can open the Code Inspector Window to have the code completely separate from the Design/Document window. You can also then move the CI window to a separate monitor if you like.
    Window > Code Inspector or F10

    Hi, e8god.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    The option to take apps full screen is still available.  Here are the steps on this feature in Yosemite.  
    Take apps full screen
    In many apps, you can expand the window to fill your entire screen. While in full-screen view, swipe to see another app’s full-screen window, to see your desktop, or to see a space you created.
    Expand to full-screen view: Click the green full-screen button in the top-left corner of an app window, or press Control-Command (⌘)-F.
    Move between windows in full-screen view: Swipe left or right on a trackpad or Magic Mouse. For more information, see Learn trackpad and mouse gestures.
    Return to standard view: Move the pointer to the top-left corner of the screen, then click the green full-screen button again, or press Control-Command (⌘)-F.
    Take apps full screen
    Cheers, 
    Jason H.  

  • Open Safari full screen

    Can I configure Safari to open full screen when first opening?

    Above the tool bar you will see "Window" option. Click it. Then at the last option of the window you will find "Open Safari full screen". Click it and from the next time you open Safari you will find it in full screen.
    Thank you.

  • Safari full screen broken

    Hello all,
    As you can see from the attached pic, the full screen on safari is not convering completely my 13MBP screen on the lower side. The only way to fix it, is to switch off the full screen and then re-enable it. But it last just a couple of minutes and then same problem again. Looked anywere on the web but no luck. Any idea?
    Thanks in advance

    I am having a similar issue since updating to Mountain Lion. My problem happens when I go to fullscreen after waking the computer up from sleep. If you look at the top of the screenshot, the tabs don't appear. Rather, the tabs are there just hidden. I am also unable to move mouse up to make the menu bar appear. When this happens, the multi-tasking gestures don't work, either. I have to hover my mouse at the bottom of the screen to make the dock appear (that part is normal) and click on an icon to move to a different page/app (that is also normal but I should still be able to multi-task back and forth).

  • Safari full screen glitch when adding Bookmarks

    Hey there people!
    Love Safari, but I've had a fullscreen operation glitch for probably a year and still have not found a solution. The glitch only occurs while Safari is in full screen mode.
    Problem:
    1. Occurs when adding a new bookmark (in any method either thru keyboard shortcut, menu (bookmarks > add bookmark) or share button (share > add bookmark)
    2. Adding Bookmarks pop up menu appears (confirming bookmark location) but underneath the pop up menu the Safari window flickers to full screen view of default mac brushed aluminium backdrop and the space quickly slides to the left. While this is happening another brushed aluminium desktop slides from the right and into view. This backdrop then flickers to reveal original Safari window content with Bookmarks pop up menu ontop.
    3. However at this point before confirming bookmark add - if all desktop spaces are revealed via Mission Control, Safari has created a blank desktop space with Safari logo to the left of the original Safari screen. This space is titled the current web page but the thumbnail is blank (mac brushed aluminium backdrop). If the space is selected I can only see the brushed aluminium backdrop. It cannot be closed (with command W or Esc) or via Mission Control.
    4. Back to original Safari window. After I confirm which folder to save the bookmark, Safari space slides to the left and merges with the ORIGINAL desktop space (the default desktop that is created on system boot which cannot be moved or deleted). This space now looks like normal fullscreen Safari however the dock and menu bars are showing and the space is titled Desktop rather than Safari.
    6. In order to display Safari in proper fullscreen mode again, Safari has to FIRST "EXIT Full Screen" (using either keyboard shortcut or menu shortcut, full screen button does not appear). After EXIT Full Screen, Safari is correctly displayed in windowed mode in DESKTOP. Safari has to Enter Full Screen as normal to restore Safari as its own space and in full screen.
    Notes:
    - Glitch does not occur at other times (including adding pages to Reading List or during another pop up menu such as (File > Save As).
    - The glitch was first evident since fullscreen implementation in Lion. I have since updated to Mountain Lion hoping it would fix the issue but it remains unaffected.
    - I have attempted removing all Safari extensions. I have also tried removing 3rd party plugins such as Growl, Alfred. But this hasn't made any difference.
    Macbook Pro mid 2010
    Safari 6.0.4
    OS X 10.8.3
    Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions? (clean install of OSX will most likely work but is last resort)
    Thanks for reading!

  • Full Screen + Html + Flash Issues

    Hello, I have an Air app that will be running in Full screen
    interactive mode. Inside this app, I have an html control that is
    setup to view a page of mine that contains a flash file. The flash
    file is setup to fill the page and runs great in ie and firefox,
    but when i run the air app, the screen flashes and jumps all over
    the place and is very glitchy, if I bring it down to less than full
    screen it returns to normal, then glitches out again when i
    maximise...what do you recommend I check out with this odd issue?
    The following url is my flash page link:

    Hi,

  • Safari full screen quits on YouTube

    I watch a lot of YouTube videos and I like to do so in full screen mode. Every once in awhile the screen shrinks back down, changes to black & white, stops the video (I can still hear the video but it's like I am looking at a screenshot) and says something like "Click here to exit full screen mode" well the only way to get out of this is to click on the screen which then takes you back to the normal video but in small mode. Then need to click full screen mode again. All of this can take 30-45 seconds if I am quick but still I miss what is going on in the video and I have to skip backwards to see it again. It's a real PITA.
    Yosemite and Safari 8.0.2
    How can I just turn this "feature (bug)" off?

    go to your home folder (the home icon should appear next to it) and then Library> safari > extensions
    if you don't have a folder that says extentions in the safari folder, then you don't have extensions which would put us back to 0. if you do, move the files out of the folder in a safe place and make sure safari isn't running.
    Reboot after movine the safari extensions out of the folder they were in and into a different one (maybe on your desktop).
    Now open safari and see if you are still having youtube issues.

    HI,
    Give the width in % instead of mentioning in pixels.
    ie. for full width, give 100%.
    Make sure the layout is GridLayout.

  • Safari Full Screen Mode not full screen

    In full screen mode in Safari 7 I cannot hide the tool bar.  Hide toolbar is greyed out. This used to be possible in the previous version of Safari.  Is there a way round this?
    Curiously most of the toolbar can disappear in non full screen mode.
    David

    Hmm, i think i phrased original question badly, i am looking for auto-hide to be featured in normal window mode as well as fullscreen, and whatever else designers and programmers can dream up and not execute poorly.
    I have now disabled all EXTENSIONS and removed all 3rd party bars (google, sharethis, never used nayway;) and as my suspicions confirmed Safari is running much better. I was very suspicious of this when it was added as it seemed like trying to match Firefox, which I also gave up some time ago in place of Chrome as my second browser, although I use Safari for 90%. The extensions i think causes freezing when i had Parallels running a Windows VM at the same time and also other times when not.
    The extensions is a bit stupid in my opinion as any niggling, minor feature of a website should be addresses to the website rather than the browser. Where adverts are concerned, well, just use the web less or more specifically!
    I think I'm fine with Toolbar/URL-search and bookmark bar, its great - simple and not intrusive. I believe EXTENSIONS introduction gave me some sort of weird mental outlook and would urge Apple to be more careful in bringing in different types of features unnecessarily.
