FF v40.x + going to be this way?

Post by NTLS »

Greetings from the GREAT country of TEXAS,

Just wondering if the lack of "Full Screen" by F11 going to be the NEW Normal? Have turned off Menu Bar & Bookmarks Bar and the Tabs and Icons/w Address Box and Search Box remaining. The three (3) boxes upper right corner just get smaller with NOTHING going to full screen.

Using a nightly build that's a lot later than 40 and I get a true full screen using F11. Did you try Firefox Safe mode?

F11 works for me. Possibly an add on is affecting the functionality of F11.

jdspencer,

If it is a plugin then it just started when v40.0.3 came out. Do not think it is caused by this because not very many installed plus have been using these for several months. Have a screen shot of my plugins if anyone would like to see them.

malliz,

Did not realize my sig had gone to four lines. May I apologize?

Both Posters:

Have three (3) screen shots showing my Plugins, FF/Normal, & FF/after F11. All that F11 does is removes Menu Bar and BookMarks Bar, title bar and address box/w search box & icons remain.

Thank you for reading my posts, hope my corrections worked
