Hi Bogdan, long story short: Please use neither showFullScreen nor setGeometry in PA at this point. Simply try to live without fullscreen for now until we've figured out a safe standard way for fullscreen apps in Plasma Active. I hope we can have that standard way ready for PA 5, so you can use fullscreen then. ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active

Re: AP - full screen mode
I don't consider yet multiple screens, the reason for using this is that showFullScreen() alone does not work on AP.

Don't set geometries manually unless you really have to. The code you pasted would break on a desktop for example as it doesn't handle multiple screens. In general we just don't like that (and that's one of the reasons why I just look forward to Wayland).

Re: AP - full screen mode
Actually I am using first showFullScreen() before setting the geometry, otherwise on AP my window is wrongly resized.

In my case I am actually using my own toolbar with a full screen button. I should disable this on AP, but I am wondering if from Qt I can find a portable way to detect when running on AP. -- Bogdan ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active

it's the widgets/panel-background svg from the Plasma theme.
Svg("widgets/panel-background") should do the trick.

For full screen mode currently I use
QRect rect(0, 0, QApplication::desktop()->width(), QApplication::desktop()-
height());
setGeometry(rect);
Hi,
we are currently preventing full screen mode because if a (legacy)
application does not provide a way to exit full screen mode without
using the keyboard, we're stuck with no way to close the application.
This has happened e.g. with Bangarang.
We are planning to re-allow full screen mode once we are sure that no

full screen mode is not supported yet, because on an application misbehaving
it can lock out the entire device.
what would be needed is a kwin extension that offers some gesture to exit from
fullscreen
