I am surprised nobody answered. I hope I made myself clear: when you
use View > Full Screen, a small button appears which you can click to
return to normal view. This button you can move around. I moved toward
the top of the screen and it disappeared, and, I think, a bar that was
not there before appeared (that I think it somehow contains the button
which is no invisible and unclickable: it only appears momentarily on
the bar while returning to normal view). Now in the Writer I can return
with Esc. In the Calc I have to use the shortcut (Ctrl + Shift + J). But
I would like to know how I can return to the original state of affairs,
with the Full Screen button...
OK - on the same system as yours (Windows XP, OOo v 3.01):
View> Full Screen produces small button bar with 'Full Screen' as its only
button. Unlike you I cannot make that button disappear by dragging it.
I can, however, make it disappear if the mouse pointer chances to drift over
the top, right hand arrow on the bar,
What arrow?
over the 'visible buttons' entry and
When I right-click on a bar with icons I see in the drop-down menu
Visible Buttons.
on to 'Full Screen'.
In the drop-down list there is no Full Screen entry.
This is easy to do and has the effect of removing that
burron from the bar. Is that what you have done?
No, that is not what I did. I was moving the Full Screen button around
and when it reached to top it disappeared, and the top bar became wider
to incorporate it into its belly.
If so, then go back over the arrow, over 'visible buttons' and reselect
'Full Screen'. If not, then I've no idea what is going on except that it
doesn't happen for me.

Please explain about the arrow.
Thanks,
