Hi,

I'm trying to enable full screen mode two standalone VM(s).

The following modus operandi does not work : https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/full-screen-mode/

No error displayed and no change right-clicking on a window’s title bar and selecting "Fullscreen".

How can I fix it ?

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards.

You dont say what the standaloneVMs are:
On a Debian based HVM the simplest thing to do (under Xfce) is to set
the display size in the HVM to that of the screen (or larger) and then select
Fullscreen from the title bar.
The same works in a Windows HVM.

That works for me.ymmv

Hi,

Thanks so much. VMs Kali & Hynesim based based on Debian ;-)

Frustrating how the answer was so simple. I searched for a long time and
found nothing.

Glad to help.
I should add it to the docs, perhaps.
