GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 767440
A fullscreen pattern is missing
Last modified: 2020-12-04 18:20:50 UTC
The HIG doesn't explain how an application should present the fullscreen action (appmenu vs headerbar vs hamburger menu) and how it should behave when in fullscreen mode (eg: how to unfullscreen).
I agree that it would be good to have this. One thing the pattern ought to address is touch interaction, particularly with regards to exiting full screen. This currently isn't possible in some apps (Documents, Eye of GNOME, possibly).
Fixed: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-devel-docs/commit/?id=a9dd973e18f05fdcff61f3d73f734d91912e57cb This is an initial page and there might be more cases to think about that it doesn't cover.
