Description Thierry Vignaud 2011-03-04 02:47:08 UTC 
ooimpress doesn't offer full screen view. Only Writer & Calc do.
This is annoying as it prevents me to use more of my screen surface for usefull stuff when looking at a presentation.
I can only choose between
- having desktop bar(s), window decoration, impress toolbars
- slideshow

In the later case, I cannot alter the presentation, just look at it.
In the former one, I lost quite a lot of usefull space. Eg: on GNOME with a 1440x900 LCD screen, I lost 39% of the horizontal size, and 36% of the vertical size, meaning loosing 62% of the total surface to both desktop, window decorations & impress menus, toolbars.

With a full screen view, I could use more space for the presentation itself, there would be only impress menu & toolbars around the presentation.

Using libreoffice-core-3.3.0.4-1.fc15.x86_64 on Fedora Core.

This would also make Impress useful for collaboratively editing slides while viewing via a beamer, so it is more than merely screen space saving. Would this be a candidate for an easy hack?

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
