The available HW buttons are: +/- keys, Power key, Take-a-photo key and the lock key. Then there´s of course the keyboard with even more keys ;) They key constants for the +/- keys are the same as on Diablo. But before you can use them you first have to unmap the default action, which is sound volume up/down. I think the camera button works differently, don´t know how, but the load applet is using it for taking a screenshot. Anyways, I don´t think any of the hardware buttons is well suited to toggle fullscreen mode. Instead I would go with a keyboard shortcut and/or the transparent overlay button that the browser is using. I don´t think there is already a widely used keyboard shortcut. Some wiki document suggests Ctrl+f but this is often used to open the find bar. If we could standardize/recommend something for all community apps it would be nice. Suggestions welcome :) About the transparent overlay button: There is some code available here[1] which was probably ripped out of the browser code. Unfortunately they also removed the transparency and the fade in/out effects[2]. I think it shouldn't be to difficult to add these again, though. I really would like to do this, but I don´t think my time will permit it anytime soon. Maybe someone else wants to give it a try? Cheers!
