List of Lion full screen apps?


Recommended Posts

Not sure about a comprehensive list already existing, but we could start one! :p Here are the third party apps I use that support full-screen mode:

  • Sparrow
  • Evernote
  • Rdio
  • SublimeText 2
  • Chocolat
  • TextMate (with a plugin)
  • GitHub
  • Byword
  • VMware Fusion
  • Analog
  • 1Password
  • Reeder
  • Pixelmator

I wish the Creative Suite apps supported native full-screen, but it doesn't look like that's coming in CS6.

I don't understand the full screen thing...

I've a 27" screen and I want the whole screen to be Safari or Evernote?

What would you guys use it for?

I don't use it when I'm using my Thunderbolt Display, but I love it when I'm using my 11" MBA screen.

So I tried sparrow and it somehow messed up my IMAP account, I had to get it unlocked by tech support. So much for that.

If you're just using IMAP, you might as well just use Mail. It supports full-screen mode as well.

I use Sparrow because I exclusively use Gmail.

No full screen in CS6? Why are devs so averse to implementing the feature?

every since PS came to windows I've heard the excuse "PS is better on the mac because it doesn't use up the whole screen with that stupid MDI window"... now apple introduces full screen apps and people are complaining that CS6 isn't full screen :laugh:

Sometimes I prefer a small Photoshop document window (like when I'm working with small asset files). Other times I want my document taking up the whole screen (like when I'm working with a website/UI mockup).

Pixelmator does it perfectly. If I want a small window and panels that just show and hide depending on application focus, Pixelmator does that. If I want a document to take up the whole screen (using Lion's full screen API), Pixelmator does that too.

I'm a Windows fan, Lion was the first version of OSX to really grab my interest because of full screen apps.

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Saluton, Paŭlo. Dankon pro la ĉefartikolo. Ĝi estis interesa. Mi esploros pli pri la aplikaĵo kaj ĝia koncepto. Kompreneble, se vi konas min entute, vi scias, ke mi dirus, ke viaj artikoloj bezonas iom da redaktado! Mi ĉiam faras tion, ĉu ne? Ekzemple, la artikolo foje mencias koncepton antaŭ ol difini ĝin, ekzemple, relajsoj.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
