| Summary | 0001817: Change fullscreen on OS X |
| Description | It is quite common for games on OS X to run in a separate workspace fullscreen so it's easy to switch between them via Mission Control or just Trackpad gestures [see attachment 1].
However, with Zandronum, none of this is possible. In fact, you can't even Command-Tab out of the application, since it uses a fullscreen mode in which all the system key combinations (except Cmd-Q for quitting and Cmd-Opt-Esc for force quitting) are disabled. My guess is that it does not use Mission Control fullscreen mode as it was introduced only in OS X 10.7, thus it is not being used for compatibility with older OS X versions. It might be still possible to enable this for at least 10.7+.
Then again, GZDoom does it the hacky way: it draws its whole fullscreen window in the desktop workspace over everything, which yet allows users to easily use all the mentioned above features including Cmd-Tabbing out [see attachments 1 and 2]. If not the first solution, then this one sounds like a good compromise. Because as far as I know it works on older systems just fine. |
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Run Zandronum in fullscreen.
2. Try to use any key combinations.
3. Find out that you can not leave the application (only if you disable fullscreen), can not switch keyboard layout (which is quite a pain if you enter with, for example, Russian one - you have to quit Zandronum, change it, then start Zandronum again), and basically can't use any of key combinations except Cmd-Q and Cmd-Opt-Esc. |
