Created attachment 110864 [details] [Mockup] buttons: close, minimize, maximize, full screen It would be great to have a window button which triggers a window to enter full screen mode.
From UI perspective I'm not sure whether it is a good button as it is one way. One cannot exit fullscreen in the same way.

There are several ways to solve this: (a) show titlebar when mouse cursor is near the top of the screen Pros: - good UX/UI Cons: - requires a lot changes to KWin - it may not match the "Plasma look" (b) use shortcuts("Make Window Fullscreen" under "System Settings/Shortcuts/Global Shortcuts/KWin") Pros: - small amount of changes Cons: - bad UX/UI Also, there is no way to determine whether a window is fullscreenable, right? (except by using some heuristics)
Also note that forcing the window into full screen will most likely cause problems with the application. For example, if I full screen my browser through KWin it keeps its address bar as it doesn't expect to end up in full screen by external means.

Oh, I see. Maybe, in the future, the situation with full screen windows would be better. I close it for now.
