Hi Folks,
I’ve tried testing Self.Fullescreen or theWindow.Fullscreen in my app, (theWindow being the window name) and .Fullscreen seems to be False regardless of the window’s state.
Am I using it incorrectly? This always executes the windowed change code.
If Not theWindow.Fullscreen Then
// Do the windowed change
else
// Do the fullscreen change
End If
Or is it a possible bug in the Xojo framework?
Mac OS, IDE 17r2.1
BTW - The debugger property value for the window’s Fullscreen property is also always False.
Hi Tim,
It looks like maximized is different than fullscreen. Here is a quick demonstration program that works on Windows with Xojo 2017 r2.1. Does it work on your unit?
In code you may set fullscreen = true.
Then see what fullscreen reports back in the debugger.
I suspect the same as @Eugene Dakin notes.

So, if I don’t set FullScreen button to True, even thought the app goes fullscreen, it’s really NOT full screen … thus, Window.FullScreen is always equal to False. Thanks, Eugene. @Paul Lefebvre - might be important to note this in the docs for both the window property for enabling the Fullscreen button as well as the boolean Fullscreen property.
