Hi @daddins,
Please use the CTRL + CMD + F to enter full screen mode (ALT + CTRL + F on Windows).

Hi Elad
Is there any way for me to automatically to start the 'app' / 'extension'
in fullscreen?
I've tried "chrome.windows.update(windowId, { state: "fullscreen" })"
which I can't seem to get to work (as I'm no developer! just a dumb project
manager!!!)
Is there anyway I can edit the background.js to start the application in
fullscreen mode using the *Fullscreen API*?
All I can seem to find is full screen toggled by a user keyboard 'click'
is there any way to initiate webkitFullscreenElement
without using a user initiated action?
function toggleFullScreen() {
if (!document.fullscreenElement) {
document.documentElement.requestFullscreen();
} else {
if (document.exitFullscreen) {
document.exitFullscreen();
}
}}
I' tryin yo replicate chrome --start-fullscreen using the app / extension
instead as I am deploying to a chromebook.
Kind Regards
Phillip Daddy

Hi @daddins,
If you unzip the generated .crx and edit js/embed.js, simply add this code to the top of the file:
// Get current focused window
var currentWindow = chrome.app.window.current();
// Check if currently full screen
if (currentWindow && !currentWindow.isFullscreen()) {
// Enter full screen mode
currentWindow.fullscreen();
}
Then, remove the installed .crx from chrome://extensions and load your unpacked, edited extension.

I want to say thank you again - I've implemented the code and it works like
a charm - you star!
Suggestion for your next https://applicationize.me/ project !
Same idea: turn your web app/page into a PWA!
Kind Regards
