๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ Current Behaviour

Fullscreen UWP/metro apps (such as Plex or Netflix), the mouse cursor, and right-click/context menus in Win32 programs (file Explorer, Chrome, Notepad, etc.) are not dimmed.

๐ŸŽฏ Expected Behaviour

All parts of Windows should be dimmed

๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Steps to Reproduce (S2R)

  • Run on Windows, open Explorer, and right click something
  • Install the Netflix app from the Windows store, watch something, and go fullscreen
  • Notice the taskbar becomes undimmed when you open the start menu, and that the start menu and cursor are undimmed

๐Ÿก Environmental Context

App Version
2.9.0
Installation Type
Setup
Operating System
Windows 10 Pro x64 build 1703

Thanks for your report.

The desired behaviour is currently not implementable via Electron - if this should change, i'll reopen this issue.

Cheers,
