Full screen mode with toolbars in Opera
2 CommentsPublished January 25th, 2009 11:17 PM EST By Tamil
By default, full screen mode doesn’t have any toolbars but you can enable them by
- using custom full screen button
- modifying action for keyboard shortcut, F11
- modifying right click full screen menu item action Enter fullscreen | Leave fullscreen under [Document Popup Menu]
- creating a new mouse gesture in Application section

Full screen mode with tab bar & address bar
| Full screen with | Action code for keyboard shortcut or mouse gesture! |
|---|---|
| Tab bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View page bar, 6 |
| Address bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View address bar, 6 |
| Status bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View status bar, 6 |
| Tab bar & Address bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View page bar, 6 & View address bar, 6 |
| Tab bar & Status bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View page bar, 6 & View status bar, 6 |
| Address bar & Status bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View address bar, 6 & View status bar, 6 |
| Tab bar, Address bar & Status bar | Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View page bar, 6 & View address bar, 6 & View status bar, 6 |
! If you want scroll bar in full screen mode, add & Delay, 10 & Enable scroll bars to the end of action code.
You can get buttons from here as Opera button links won’t work in Opera Watch.

You can also do this without setting up any buttons or gestures.
F-11 into full screen mode, then type alt-v to get the ‘Veiw’ menu and you can select which toolbars you want to see.

Wow! Great post from both of you guys! I especially liked Roger’s tip about going into fullscreen mode initially(e.g. F11) and then picking and choosing which toolbar to display at the spur of the moment with the (Alt-v) method.
Great tips you guys!
Long live Opera!
