What Happened?
Wingpanel causes full screen issues in video games, full screen video playback, and full screen media display. In video games, the panel shows up and moves the full screen game lower past the screen, or will display on top of the game regardless. In full screen video playback and full screen media display, full screen just breaks and refuse to be full screen after several attempt of successfully going full screen. This can be seen when attempting to watch a video on full screen in a web browser, or looking at a media displayed in full screen such as in Telegram app.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open Telegram app.
- Try to open a media attachment in a chat, such as a picture.
- Full screen display is successful, now close the media display and try again.
- Try again until the full screen breaks and media refuses to be displayed in full screen.
- Now open a browser, in my case it's LibreWolf.
- Watch a video on PeerTube and click toggle full screen.
- Video may be displayed in full screen, now toggle off the full screen and toggle on again.
- Keep toggling on/off and at some point the full screen will not work.
- Open any games in full screen.
- In first attempt, full screen usually behaves normal although not always the case.
- Close the game and open the game again until the bug happens in which the top panel displayed.
Expected Behavior
- Games played in full screen being actually full screen without being interrupted by a panel.
- Be able to open any media attachment in full screen for applications that display media in full screen such as in Telegram.
- Be able to constantly toggle on/off full screen in video playback of streaming sites without encountering issues of not able to go full screen.
