Win key exits full screen mode
Win key exits full screen mode. Is this intentional (I think not). I use Win key in many of my hotkeys. Can you disable it (Esc key is enough for exiting full screen) or at least have an option to change it.

Hmm, think the initial idea was that any key should bring the user back to normal screen mode.joximus wrote:Win key exits full screen mode. Is this intentional (I think not).

But I agree: The modifier keys ('Win', 'Alt', 'Ctrl' and 'Shift') should only have a meaning in combination with other keys. When pressed alone, no action should be triggered. So in Fullscreen mode, neither Win key nor Ctrl key should exit the fullscreen mode.

I think that it is bad idea that any key exits full screen mode. Only one or couple of keys should do so.helmut wrote: Hmm, think the initial idea was that any key should bring the user back to normal screen mode.
