Seamoney Composer stuck in fullscreen mode

[heymikey]

Hi all,

I hope this question has a reasonably simple answer.

My SM Composer (2.48 Mac) has been a good tool for my use. But now it is stuck in fullscreen mode. While editing a page, I clicked the fullscreen button at the upper left. Now I cannot get out of this mode -- the menu bar is gone. I've tried every suggestion I've found: hover at top of screen, function key, etc. etc. All I can do is close the window with cmd-W.

And the next time I select "file --> edit page", I'm back in fullscreen mode. Same thing with "file --> new --> composer page".

I conjectured that somewhere in the profile, there must be a setting "always open composer in fullscreen mode", or maybe "open composer in the last-used mode". So I created a new, clean profile, and asked SM to use that. Sure enough, no fullscreen mode. Not wishing to lose all my profile info (mail accounts, etc.), I went back to my old profile. Naturally, fullscreen is back.

QUESTION: where is that setting in the profile, and how do I change or delete it?

I don't know if it's the same for a Mac, but in Windows, F11 toggles between normal and full screen.

Dave.

Tried that and the other simple stuff.

I really think there's a profile setting somewhere that is stuck. If I use a new, clean profile, behavior is normal.

A slightly different approach: is there a way in SM to copy my email accounts from one profile to another? Then I could use the clean-profile approach above.

Best,
Mike

• Have you tried pressing ESC or Command-Control-F ?
