In response to David Benfell [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hello all, Having long fingers, I occasionally hit F11 while typing into a text box in Firefox. F11 does something truly horrible that I never under any circumstances want. It moves the window partially off screen such that the window controls are inaccessible. No it doesn't. It puts Firefox in fullscreen mode, which removes the buttons altogether. Hit F11 again to switch back to windowed mode. As I said, I NEVER EVER want this function. It is, in my view, a damnable bug. The only way I can get control back is to exit Firefox. Have you tried hitting F11 again? If that's not working, you've found a bug which should be reported to the Firefox team. How do I kill it? Asking the question on the Firefox forums instead of the FreeBSD forums might be a good start, as this isn't even related to FreeBSD. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: F11 in Firefox
Amitabh and Bill, Thanks for your rapid response. Pressing F11 shrinks the window, but moves it farther up and to the left. Under XFCE, I have found no way to move the window back to where I can grab ahold of it to position it properly on the screen and am compelled to leave it in full screen mode. -- David Benfell, LCP [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Resume available at http://www.parts-unknown.org/ NOTE: I sign all messages with GnuPG (0DD1D1E3). pgp44Y1Of3Z7H.pgp Description: PGP signature

I use XFCE and can't reproduce the problem. After the window returns to size, it's also back in its previous location. Are you using the latest xfce4? Also, Alt + left mouse button will allow you to drag without having to grab a border. I have to use this with evince a lot, as it seems to automagically reposition/resize itself halfway off my screen a lot. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

As I said, I NEVER EVER want this function. It is, in my view,
a damnable bug. The only way I can get control back is to exit
Firefox.
How do I kill it?
Try adding something like the following to your Firefox profile's
/chrome/userChrome.css file, and restart Firefox.
menuitem[label=Full Screen]
{
display: none;
}
I am not totally sure that will kill the F11 equivalent, but it will
remove the menu option and I think take away the fkey as well.
