Somehow, Expression Blend has entered full-screen mode (no window chrome), but I can still minimize/maximize/restore/move through the taskbar button. I don't see any menu options for full-screen mode, and the normal keyboard shortcuts don't work (F11, Alt-Enter).
I'm not sure how this happened, but I would sorely love to get my chrome back to make interacting with the window easier.
I've never seen a Full-screen mode in Blend. Maybe you accidentally hit Tab or F4 and did an Auto-hide to all of the panels?
you can press ESC button
in code use:
Application.Current.Host.Content.IsFullScreen = false;
check this
After not even trying to use Blend for my application for a really long time, it turns out it was my own fault to begin with. I had created a custom chrome control that would find its parent Window and remove the frame. I wasn't checking design mode, so whenever my control was instantiated by blend, it would remove all the chrome from the window :).

How can I configure PhpStorm to use the "non-native" fullscreen mode? I'd like PhpStorm to be fullscreen (without the macOS top menu bar, etc), in the same window (without creating a new window that I have to scroll between).
The terminal for macOS iTerm2 have this setting. You can choose to remove the tick from "Native full screen windows". When this tick is removed, the fullscreen mode will simply take out all space in the window, without creating a new separate window.
Native fullscreen example
Notice how a new separate "window" is created called "PhpStorm"
Non-native fullscreen example
Notice how theres still one window called "Desktop". The iTerm window fills out the whole screen though.
the only way you can do it at the moment is by adjusting the dock in mac to hide menu automatically and then spread the editor to wider and higher setting
click right on the dock in mac and goto settings and hide menu works for me
i am suffering from same issue lol after i saw iterm2 :P
I'm using ARC Welder to test an APK in Chrome (on Windows). It works mostly fine but the app uses an old-style Android menu, opened by either pressing the hardware button on old devices, or touching the "3 vertical dots" soft button on newer ones.
However the ARC window doesn't use a menu button nor does there seem to be a keyboard shortcut to open the menu (not that I could find anyway).
Any ideas?
(Note: I know Google has more or less depricated there old style Android menus. But this is in an old APK).
ARC does not provide a way of simulating an Android menu button. We have thought about providing a button in the window frame, like we do for the back button, but we have not moved forward with it. Feel free to star the bug for it
Ctrl+Windows+Esc (Win key is to prevent Windows opening the Start menu):

Right Alt should work as well but most keyboards lack that key.

I have an application that at times can bring a view into fullscreen mode on a second display. The application does this by using the "enterFullscreenMode:withOptions" api on the view.
How ever what's odd is that while in fullscreen mode on another display, system shortcuts such as cmd+tab or alt+space doesn't work any more, all normal characters work though. And when I bring the view out of fullscreen mode the keyboard works normally again.
How can I fix this?
I have other application's fullscreen direct-x window, which I need to hide. I found the way to hide it by hooking direct-x create device and changing window parameters so it is not fullscreen. This works ok on XP but on Win-7 I can't use any other application because it looks like application is switching it to be foreground window so all clicks and keyboard input goes to that window. However if I click fast I can make some action. This make me think that this app is using some function to direct input to itself, or to focus, dunno what.
The other thing is that if I resize the window and don't hide it, all works ok.
I tried to hook SetCapture, SetForegroundWindow, SetActiveWindow and SetWindowPos and none of this helped.
Do you have some idea how can I hide window in other way, or what can cause this focusing to invisible window?
My Cocoa app displays a transparent window on the screen, but when the user tries to take a screenshot using Mac OS X's built-in screen capture key with the option of selecting full windows (Command-Shift-4, then Space Bar), my window gets highlighted as part of the possible windows to capture.
How can I tell my Window or App not to allow this? My Window already refuses to be the Main Window or Key Window through -canBecomeKeyWindow and -canBecomeMainWindow both returning NO, but this still happens.
The Window is also at the NSModalPanelWindowLevel and NSScreenSaverWindowLevel does the same thing.
Notice that every window is eligible for screenshots, even the desktop, dock and menu bar, which are special windows. You can even take a screenshot of the Exposé overlay window itself. This leads me to believe that there is no way to do this.
I suppose you could hook the Command+Shift+4 key event and hide the window, but that key combo is user-definable, so it is subject to change.
