Exiting Fullscreen mode using a simple mouse shortcut

Post by Streeks »

Instead of having to double click on the image to return to the browser/view, it'd be easier to perform a single-click on the upper left corner of the screen.

Just having this as an option would be great! :D

:) Hello !
…it'd be easier to perform a single-click on the upper left corner of the screen.
• At this location, there is still the damned antiquated menu from Win 3.1 opened via one click
on the small icon of the current programme… :P

• I assume that you mean “… of the window.”
- That's questionable, because from the Options >> Keyboard ¦ Mouse >> Modes Config.,
it's possible to choose other ways to switch View <–> Browser and more, the fastest being to press the “Enter” key,
for the Keyboard-Knights (I'm not…).
- Then, which area size might be sensitive to perform that ? How to spot it ? Configurable ? Image
- What about the left-handed users ? At up-right ?
- In my usual workflow (with rather small images), it's as so fast to 2-click anywhere on the BG of the window
as to reach the U-L corner to save one click…
- Please notice that I'm not against, but it might be more precisely defined, IMHO.

:mrgreen: Kind regards,
Claude

:) Hi !

Image I missed your "Full screen", sorry, I thought "View" window (but why not too ?).
- There is a hitch to use the upper-left area, because it's the place of the file info (name and path)
when one presses the “I” key (i) :

:) Hi !

• The double-click is exactly that Streeks does not wish…

Active+static ?

:) Hello !

• Back to Streeks' suggestion :

- Is it possible to have both active (the wished one-click to switch) and static (the area for the file info from "I")
controls at the same location superposed or so ?
- Also, to move the active area to up-right when the user is left-handed ?
