Hello

My tours generally work by attaching a window.open javascript command to a link on the home page of the web-site. Tours then open in the generated pop-up.

Is it possible to force the tours to open fullscreen from that link, rather than opening in a browser window.

(I dont mean by using javascript fullscreen pop-ups. I know how to do that. I mean the fullscreen in fpp that allows you to press escape to exit

Thanks

As far as I know, it is not possible due to Adobe's security implementation.

Someone (was it Patrick?) took an example a while back, where you would go fullscreen with a link (if it was not impossible) and the link would take you to a copy of your desktop in full screen, and enable a hacker to construct it so that he could access your credit card information and other personal information.

This is a good example of why it is not possible.
