How to enable permanent full screen mode in appvm ?

[joe bobby]

nothing really works mentioned here about enabling
full screen mode in my fedora appvm.

all I want is watch youtube videos in full screen.
it does not matter if I still have a colored bar on the top of my screen.

just whenever I press full screen on youtube videos, the appvm freezes...

how to enable youtube fullscreen permanently without having to type in a command every time?

put vid player in full screen. then for xfce the top left of the colored window bar, click and set to fullscreen. To leave fullscreen, hit alt+space

In kde to get fullscreen set alt f3 to get the options.

I'm not sure if that button in top left of browser is contingent on what theme you are using. alt space might also be the shortcut to enter fullscreen on xfce.

Hi,

An issue has been created about this:

https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1502

This is a regression coming with Qubes 3.2 since it was working nicely
on Qubes R2: when switching a video to "full screen" it occupied the
whole surface of the corresponding window (without resizing it
automatically) and the window could then be freely manually resized at
will (including making it full-screen: right-click on the window title >
`Full Screen').

I found this to be a really nice feature since it was an easy way to get
rid of any distracting web or Youtube interface and have a window
showing just the video content while still having the possibility to
have other windows around (like a text editor to take or check notes
while watching the video).

Regards,
Simon.
