[Bug 1464333] Re: F11 should toggle app-level fullscreen

 

This bug was fixed in the package webbrowser-app -
0.23+15.10.20150618-0ubuntu1

---------------
webbrowser-app (0.23+15.10.20150618-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ CI Train Bot ]
  * New rebuild forced.

  [ Michael Terry ]
  * Fix spelling of OK in private browsing dialog.

  [ Olivier Tilloy ]
  * Actually push URLs to the clipboard. For some reason setting the
    "text/url-list" mime type doesn’t seem to work (or other
    applications do not implement pasting this kind of data), but
    "text/plain" works well enough for this purpose. (LP: #1463435)
  * Do not honour fullscreen requests silently at the Ubuntu WebView
    level. Instead delegate that behaviour to the webview implementation
    used by the browser and the webapp container. (LP: #1464249)
  * Toggle application-level fullscreen when pressing F11. (LP:
    #1464333)

  [ Ugo Riboni ]
  * Make the browser chrome usable on desktop by implementing common
    keyboard shortcuts and behaviors that users normally expect in such
    an app (LP: #1287361)

Title:
  F11 should toggle app-level fullscreen

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Pressing F11 should toggle the application level fullscreen.
  Note that this is different from page level fullscreen, which is triggered by the page itself.

  We should research if we want to merge the two concepts so that for
  the user there is only one notion of fullscreen and only one way to
  exit fullscreen, regardless of how it was activated (F11 or page
  interaction).

  Or if we want to have to have one way to escape app level fullscreen
  (e.g. F11) and one to escape page level fullscreen (e.g. ESC)

  [Design Comment]
  Agree with Bill Filler & Olivier Tilloy's first suggestion (i.e. concepts should be merged/ be consistent). It would appear they do not need to be mutually exclusive, so:

  - If Page triggers fullscreen: Navigating back/away from page that
  triggered FS, Pressing f11 (toggle FS/ Windowed) or Pressing Esc
  (return to windowed from FS only) returns to windowed mode.

  - If User triggers fullscreen: Navigation has no effect on FS/
  Windowed modes, Pressing f11 (toggle FS/ Windowed) or Pressing Esc
  (return to windowed from FS only) returns to windowed mode.
