 | [Leo] Full Screen Mode How do I disable the full-screen mode entirely in Lion, or if not possible, get out of it back to my regular screen without having to completely close down my browser window every time I accidentally click the double diagonal arrows? -- "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." - Galileo |

 | reply to Alpha Phoenix If you have an application running in full screen mode, if you take the mouse pointer and hover over the top of the screen the menu bar will appear, and you should see a similar icon in blue in the top right corner.

Matter of fact, when I hover and the menu appears, I can't click any of the options.  -- "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use." - Galileo |
