How to exit vncviewer’s fullscreen mode? full screen

In Jan 2024:

click mouse inside window you want to take in or out of full screen – this gives this window primacy. E.g., vnc

hit <fn> f8 to bring up a menu with “full screen” option at top.*

Now let go of those two keys and that menu should persist

Now either click on full screen or else hit f key

This should toggle in and out of full screen mode.


*If menu is flashing, while keeping the <fn> f8 keys held down, also enter f (yes hand-gymnastics!)

====================================================================

On Sep 9, 2022 I had gaveĀ  the following two solutions. Don’t seem to work as of Jan 2024

To exit from full-screen mode, press Ctrl-Alt-Shift-F.

Alternately, press Ctrl-Esc Esc and then right-click on the vncviewer taskbar icon to see the menu.
