• Chrome full screen. Full screen mode in Chrome. How to exit full screen mode in games

    Most of the positive aspects of the Google Chrome browser are sometimes overshadowed by some of its shortcomings: such “tricks” of developers are found everywhere and will always be! We just have to somehow maneuver and manage to create a favorable working environment for ourselves.

    Today we’ll look at a solution to a problem that makes it difficult to use the browser on the entire monitor screen: the saddest thing is that you lose quick (quick) access to open browser tabs.

    Switching to/exiting full-screen mode on a computer is the F11 key, and on laptops the Fn+F11 key combination is often used.

    The solution to the problem shown is the Tab Revolution utility: let’s get to know each other in more detail, because there are some nuances:

    how to enable full screen mode in Google Chrome browser using Tab Revolution

    As far as I remember, this browser problem has been haunting inquisitive users for quite a long time... probably the creators have some goals regarding this full-screen mode, and therefore are somehow plastic for the user and are in no hurry to solve it.

    Fic with them: we’ll decide for ourselves!

    First of all, let's download the utility itself... Tab Revolution - go to the page using the Chrome browser - the page also has some details...

    Click the “Install” button and — seconds of Internet collapse — you’re done! The utility is installed. Now you need to restart your browser...

    Let's take a close look at the dashboard (toolbar) - this hot icon of the Tab Revolution application will appear:

    how to manage the Tab Revolution extension

    Everything is the same as before (when this extension was not installed): to enter full-screen mode, you just need to press the F11 key (or on a laptop keyboard Fn + F11)

    However, here lies the miraculous power of the utility itself...

    Working in full-screen mode of the Chrome browser, you no longer have to fiddle with the keyboard:

    All you have to do is move your cursor to the upper left edge of the browser window... all our open page tabs will appear in a magnificent pop-up effect)) - just choose!


    ! Study the “Settings in the icon itself” of the application yourself: it is very interesting and informative in terms of moving towards confident use of the Chrome browser.


    ...And all I can do is say goodbye... and wish you useful work on the network

    If you have come to this page, then the question is probably spinning in your head - “How to enter full-screen mode in Chrome?” Actually, we will consider it. And besides, we’ll figure out how to get out of it, and also tell you a little about changing the page scale.

    You can open full-screen mode in two ways - through the menu, and also by pressing a special key responsible for this action. Let's look at a more complex method first:

    You can also take an even easier route. Click F11 and this mode will be turned on immediately. To disable it, click on the button again F11 on the keyboard.

    Changing the scale in Chrome

    Google's browser has the ability to change page zoom. Initially it is equal to 100%, but if you are not satisfied with this and you want to increase it, or vice versa, decrease it, then this can be done in a few clicks.

    If you don't like this way of controlling page zoom, there is another one. Hold down the “Ctrl” key and, without releasing it, roll the mouse wheel up/down.

    A couple of problems with newer versions of chrome:

    • built-in for magnification
    • Chrome recovery error always shows after force shutdown
    • auto update popup

    Due to a recovery bug disabled in incognito mode as this runs the clear version all the time and doesn't save what the user was viewing and so if it crashes there is nothing to recover. Also, automatic updating in newer versions of chrome is a pain to try and disable, I disabled using chrome as it doesn't auto update and still give all the modern chrome features. Note. Make sure you download the top version of chrome which comes with all audio and video codecs as the base version of chrome does not support all codecs.

    @echo off echo Step 1 of 2: Waiting a few seconds before starting the Kiosk... "C:\windows\system32\ping" -n 5 -w 1000 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo Step 2 of 5: Waiting a few more seconds before starting the browser... "C:\windows\system32\ping" -n 5 -w 1000 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo Final "invisible" step: Starting the browser, Finally... "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chromium\chrome.exe" --chrome --kiosk http://127.0.0.1/xxxx --incognito --disable-pinch --overscroll-history-navigation=0 exit

    Outdated

    I use this for exhibitions to lock screens. I think this is what you are looking for.

    • Launch chrome and go to www.google.ru and drag the URL onto your desktop.
    • rename it to something suitable for this example google_homepage
    • Drop this now into your c directory, click on my computer c: and drop this file there
    • start chrome again go to settings and under at startup select open page and set home page here.

    The next part is the script I use to start closing and restarting chrome in kiosk mode again. Where I have chrome installed, it may be different for you depending on your setup.

    Open your text editor of choice or just notepad and run through the code below, make sure it is in the same format/order as shown below. Save it to your desktop as you like in this example chrome_startup_script.txt, then right click it and rename it, delete txt from the end and enter bat. double click it to run the script to make sure it works correctly.

    A command prompt window should appear and run through the script, chrome will start and then close the reason to do this is to remove any error messages, for example if the computer crashed, when chrome starts again without it showing a yellow error bar at the top saying that chrome did not close correctly, you would like to restore it. After a few seconds, Chrome should start again and in kiosk mode and indicate which home page you have set.

    @echo off echo Step 1 of 5: Waiting a few seconds before starting the Kiosk... "C:\windows\system32\ping" -n 31 -w 1000 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo Step 2 of 5: Starting browser as a pre-start to delete error messages... "C:\google_homepage.url" echo Step 3 of 5: Waiting a few seconds before killing the browser task... "C:\windows\system32\ping" -n 11 -w 1000 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo Step 4 of 5: Killing the browser task gracefully to avoid session restore... Taskkill /IM chrome.exe echo Step 5 of 5: Waiting a few seconds before restarting the browser... " C:\windows\system32\ping" -n 11 -w 1000 127.0.0.1 >NUL echo Final "invisible" step: Starting the browser, Finally... "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application \chrome.exe" --kiosk --overscroll-history-navigation=0" exit

    Note: The number after the -n ping is the number of seconds (minus one second) to wait before running the link (or the application on the next line)

    Finally, if this all works, you can drag the .bat file into your Windows startup folder and this script will run every time you start Windows.

    Update

    In the newest versions of Chrome they have actually made it into touch gestures, meaning that swiping left or right on the touch screen will cause the browser to move forward or backward in history. To avoid this, we need to disable history navigation on the back and forward buttons to add the following --overscroll-history-navigation=0 to the end of the script.

    Run Google Chrome in full screen mode

    One of our clients (a chain of pizzerias) needed a certain Internet page to open on the monitors in the halls when Windows started. It couldn't be simpler.

    The cmd script comes to the rescue again! From two lines. Please note that this script must be added to the startup of your operating system.

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --kiosk "http://stspp.ru" exit

    The first line opens the browser for us. Launch key —kiosk- launch Google Chrome in full screen mode, url in quotes - the address to which you need to go immediately after launching the browser.

    The second line is to close the cmd window. Why do we need a black window on the screen in a restaurant? Ready.

    Having plunged headlong into developing on the Compact Framework for Windows CE, some inconveniences began to appear when working with portable devices. One of these inconveniences was the need to constantly hold the device in your hands. When debugging an application, you will have to constantly launch your software on the device, pick it up, press buttons or touchscreen. All this will significantly slow down your work. What if the device is not near you at all, but, for example, at your client’s? TeamViewer, of course, cannot be installed on Windows CE. But you can use another great program that will allow you to remotely control a device on Windows CE if your PC and the device are on the same local network.

    Starting with Windows Vista, it becomes necessary to run some programs as Administrator in this OS line. Better late than never: in Unix-like OSes it is generally not recommended to work with elevated rights; there is sudo for this. And yes, since time immemorial. By the way, in Windows XP and below, this could also be done, but it was not required if your account already has Administrator rights. But the contents of application manifest files have changed forever and some software simply will not work without elevated rights. And if you decide to delve into the system or change the registry, you cannot do without it. Let's begin.
