Description Michael 2023-10-15 00:54:25 UTC

F11 is the standard keyboard shortcut to make a web browser full screen, which is what most people know, and this has been adopted by Kwrite, Kate, Gwenview, VLC and is used to hide/show the preview pane in Dolphin and the standard open/save dialog box. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Okular, press F11


OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing


EXPECTED RESULT
Should go full screen. Can F11 key be made an alternate for the Ctrl-Shift-F key?

Operating System: KDE neon 5.27

This is a feature request, not a bug, but I'd like to second it :)

F11 does not seem to be used by anything else in Okular currently, so making it an additional shortcut for fullscreen seems reasonable to me.
