Fullscreen Dropdown doesn't have a close and minimize button
The Enable Fullscreen Dropdown button is a very good feature but lacks certain improvements which needs to be published. Every time when I want to close the browser when it is already fu...
Hi,
Which Edge channel/version are you using?
have you enabled this flag?
edge://flags/#edge-enable-shy-ui
when switching to fullscreen, the browser says how to exit fullscreen
the YouTube fullscreen mode is different than Edge's built in full screen mode.
they can't be the same.
because you can already be in fullscreen mode in Edge, then go to YouTube and use the fullscreen button on video player to maximize it. so there are 2 different and distinct modes.
when you exit fullscreen mode from a YouTube video, Edge will still be in fullscreen mode of its own.
HotCakeX Sorry but I had mentioned that I am using fullscreen dropdown already. I am using Edge Canary.
- edge://flags/#edge-enable-shy-ui is already enabled. I posted the screenshot.
- I was talking of closing the browser and not the fullscreen. I had mentioned it.
- Youtube and edge fullscreen are different only in Edge Chromium not in legacy. In edge legacy youtube video play in dropdown fullscreen mode.
- Both fullscreen modes can be same, simply override the player's fullscreen mode with built-in fullscreen mode keeping the size same. Enabling of the flag should override the player's fullscreen mode too.
- Minimize, toggle fullscreen and close button must be available in fullscreen dropdown as opposed to currently being only toggle button.
- you didn't mention the channel that's why I asked.
Yes they are different from Edge legacy, there is no need to be the same.
like I said, when I'm in full screen mode in Edge and also in YouTube video and then I exist the video, i don't want Edge full screen mode to be existed with it.
they don't need to be the same. it would add a redundant step.
if minimize or close button were available in full screen mode then it would be just the normal mode.if minimize or close button were available in full screen mode then it would be just the normal mode.Minimize and close button with the toggle button doesn't make it a normal mode. Its fullscreen mode. Have a look a how your edge legacy or films and tv or better any uwp app looks like in fullscreen mode or in the screenshot I posted.
There is a difference between normal mode and fullscreen mode the way it is in Edge legacy. It is more suitable, if you want to toggle fullscreen, click the middle button among the three.. If you want to close the browser directly from fullscreen mode you can which you can't do directly without clicking on close browser button in menu or right-clicking. Its not a redundant feature but more suitable one. In normal mode the middle button is maximize button not toggle fullscreen.

Yeah, okay but still,
the full screen mode from YouTube video and the one in Edge are different from Edge legacy, there is no need for them to be the same.
when I'm already in full screen mode in Edge (drop down) and also in YouTube video, and then I exit the full screen video, i don't want Edge full screen mode (drop down) to be exited with it.
it would just add a redundant step, because I would have to switch back to full screen mode in Edge (drop down) to continue browsing the same way that I was.
