Fast Full Screen Mode. #72

Closed jordwalke closed 11 years ago

jordwalke commented 11 years ago

MacVim has a setting (and I believe Sublime has it enabled by default) where full screen mode doesn't take a total of (what feels like) two seconds to transition. It's essentially instant. I don't know what Apple was thinking.

MacVim's setting actually makes it not use OS X's native full-screen support. I don't intend on implementing custom full-screen support. If someone submits a patch at a future date that includes it, we'll consider it, though even then I'm 50-50 on it. The gain (a couple of seconds in transition in a way that is uniform across applications in the OS) isn't worth the additional complexity. Mavericks eliminates the biggest issue with built-in full-screen support, which was that you lost access to your other monitors when the application went full-screen.

Sorry!

Damnit we must have been typing at the same time @Shadowfiend. my message thank you very much.

I do agree here with @Shadowfiend here (even though I do find the transition time to be annoying @jordwalke).
