Hello,
as a follow-up from "Contributor agreement rundown":
According to
http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/5.0/qkeysequence.html#standard-shortcuts
a standard key sequence for "Fullscreen" is still missing.
Apple says "Control+Command+F":
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/userexperience/conceptual/applehiguidelines/KeyboardShortcuts/KeyboardShortcuts.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002725-SW2
Microsoft says "F11 or Alt+Enter":
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb545461.aspx
KDE says "F11 or Ctrl+Shift+F":
http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Keyboard_Shortcuts
Gnome says "Ctrl+F11":
http://developer.gnome.org/hig-book/3.0/input-keyboard.html.en#standard-shortcuts
I don't know whether this is already taken care of, but - where
applicable - the standard keys should also consider user settings
which might have changed these standard keys, for example to be
evaluated upon application initialisation. The "premium solution"
would get notified of user setting changes and change the shortcuts at
runtime :)
Unfortunatelly I don't have the time resources (and currently my
harddisk is overloaded with photos and videos, too - sorry ;)) to
implement and contribute such an extension for Qt 5 (and maybe
downbranch it to 4.8.x, too). Having a "static" shortcut (ignoring the
user settings) for "Fullscreen" - as proposed by the guides above -
would already be a start and such a solution would certainly get my
vote :)
Cheers, Oliver
