Feature Request: FULL SCREEN (preview) mode for layer.

Since people use their tablets or convertible tablets with smaller screens it would be very cool to have a

FULL SCREEN (preview) mode that

1) displays the current layer using the whole display (screen).

2) that can be fastly activated by a short-cut or a menu command

With such a feature every change can be better quickly analyzed by using the whole screen. Currently there only is the shortcut "TAB" to hide the toolbox and "control/shift plus W" to
use the screen more efficiently.

regards,

stp

By "control/shift plus W" maybe you mean "Ctrl+Shift+J". As far as i know the W shortcut closes the current image. The j command fits the image into the screen. So a sollution for what you are asking for might be these 2 commands:

"TAB"
"Ctrl+Shift+J"

But i don't know if it is possible to bind a sequence of commands to key shortcut.

My system has an optional gnome window feature - double-click on the title bar rolls up the window. So I double-click on the toolkit title bar when I want the whole screen and I have it. I can then move the toolkit title bar to a convenient (horizontal) location, and unroll the toolkit for a selection when needed. I find this quite convenient.

yes it's

"TAB"
"Ctrl+Shift+J"

that i use normally.

but would be cool to have a short cut that uses instantly the whole screen for a preview.
Since people often use such smaller pen tablet devices, a fast preview would be handy.

I use gimp on windows.

in other respects, gimp is awesome!

more practicable for most things that I do than photoshop.

Isn't that F11?

(you can rebind it, of course)

f11 is not really a fullscreen.

I mean a fullscreen like e.g. in irfanview (for windows), ENTER. ENTER -> it displays the picture using the whole screen.

Quite nasty to press shift plus j, TAB, and then f11.

Would be cool to have a fullscreen key or a key (menu item) that combines shift plus j, Tab, and f11 altogether.

I don't have Windows here.

When I press F11 I get just the image, no scrollbars or anything else. I do have to press control-shift-j if I want the image scaled to fit, since I don't have the preference set to do that automatically. You can control what's visible in full screen mode in edit/preferences.

Yes - I think this can't be scripted today; the gimp UI itself is not very scriptable unfortunately. Or maybe someone will prove me wrong!

Hi

2014-02-25 20:41 GMT+01:00 stp :

You can configure the fullscreen in Gimp. If you hit F11 in Gimp and then disable everything in the "View" menu, this will be saved for the fullscreen mode.
