Mode full-screen Windows 10

I installed Firefox on a new computer with Windows 10 and initially failed to enter fullscreen (F11) mode. After some tests, I came up with a procedure that works, but involves starting Firefox twice each time - a minor annoyance.
I have 1 'Favorites' tab and the other tabs open with a working fullscreen and close Firefox normally (I don't get the warning waited on the closure of several tabs). The following steps find Firefox upward and mode full-screen:

1. launch Firefox. It gives a blank page expanded with the address bar and the bar tab with a single tab.
2. press F11. Curiously, square set full-screen mode, it replaces the page 'Restored' size.
3 maximize. Window extends to its appearance after step 1.
4. stop Firefox. Window goes away.
5. start Firefox a 2nd time. This time, it will come with the 'restoration' page Firefox (with address & tab bar) which shows the tabs that were open at the previous close and gives the opportunity to select the tabs you want to come this time.
At this point F11 will toggle in and out of fashion full screen properly, so steps 6 and 7 can be either order.
6. press F11. He's going to full screen (i.e. address & tab bars disappear).
7. click on the button "restore". Earlier closing tabs are restored and F11 is fully functional.
Issues related to the:
1. Why don't I get the warning for closing multiple tabs? (It seems more to be an option.)
2. because (in XP at least) the "Restoration" page should appear only after a forced or abnormal stop, why is she even get involved? (Both the cases referred were normal).
3. why Firefox doesn't come until normal the first time, with only the tabs that have been pinned and F11 functional?

Since the first opening of this problem, it seems that the updates have been applied to Firefox, Windows 10 or both, and itself has the problem. So "thank you" to the one who fixed it.

    Which driver do you have exactly? You should try the new driver to display on the Toshiba site. The drivers from ATI directly not designed for mobile cards!

    Normally, every game, you can change the screen resolution. There you can adjust it to the native screen resolution.

    Have you tried to update the display driver? Maybe you have an older version that is not fully compatible with Windows 7. Just check the Web from Toshiba site to get the latest version:

    Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me.  In the windows photo gallery when I choose to display my screen full of pictures, it only shows the mode full-screen widescreen.  Instead, they are centered in the middle with two black lines down on part of the photograph.  I would like the image to fit the full screen. Anyone know how I can get around this problem?

    Hi WildRavin,

    This happens because the resolution of the monitor screen does not match the dimension of the image.

    Try matching the dimension of the image and the screen resolution or lower the resolution of the monitor screen and correspond to the dimension of the image, and check the results.

  • Offset of JInternalFrame mode full-screen exclusive Windows 7?

    < font size = 2 > Hi everyone I don't know if I'm posting this question in the right category then feel free to move it. I've recently been playing with full screen exclusive and JInternalFrames mode. What IV ' e noticed is now on all platforms I have tried works very well. By clicking and dragging the JInternalFrame to a new location, it's fast and responsive. However when you do this operation even under Windows 7 the JInternalFrame lags significantly behind the location of the mouse I'm dragging the inner frame. I did have the chance to test this on all other Windows such as Vista or XP platform, but I don't think that happens on these platforms, at least I don't remember that ever happens when I had Windows Vista and it does not occur in Mac OS 10.6.

    The circumstances that I found which produce this problem are:

    * 1. The program is set to full screen Exclusive mode.*
    * 2. You use Windows 7 (and possibly other Windows platforms). *
    * 3. Click and drag a JInternalFrame for a new same lieu.*

    I have tried several things to see if it solves the problem such as the definition of the appearance of cross-platform, but nothing helped. In fact, when the Lebanese armed forces are cross-platform, it is still worse.

    Now, I am new to the mode full-screen exclusive so I think (hope) it is a problem due to a mistake on my part. Here is the source code, I would appreciate it if you give it a try. My question is how can I correct this offset so that the JInternalFrame is quick and sensitive to the user drag the window and I wonder also if this happens only on Windows 7, so if someone could tell me also if they experience the problem I describe and the operating system that you use that would be great. Thanks guys :)

    Also, any input on the weather, I'll put up the mode full-screen exclusive mode correctly would be appreciated too. < / make >
