File opening bug introduced in the version 21.005.20048.
Previously when i had fullscreen view on (ctrl+L) and would then open a new document from second monitor while the other was still on fullscreen view, it would open the new document in fullscreen as well. Ever since the latest update when opening a new document the program exits fullscreen view no matter what kind of settings i have on.
Steps to reproduce
- open pdf file
- go to fullscreen view with CTRL+L
- open a new pdf
Expectation: new document to be opened in fullscreen
Observed resul: program exits full screen when openin a new document
OS: Windows
Hello,
Sorry for the issue that you are facing here.
However, this Change has been done explicitly with this release update.
This is done because previously there was a bug(ADC-4100538) that on opening the 2nd PDF when a pdf is already launched in Full screen View, The Top Toolbar, The Left hand navigation pane and the Right hand taskpane used to appear clipped which is undesired behavior.
As a part of Fixing this bug, we now switch out the view from Full screen view if User switches to any existing PDF Tab or Launches another PDF.
Please let me know if you have any further concerns in this ?
Thanks

Please look into the possibility of restoring this feature somehow. The ability to open a file into full screen would be extremely helpful.
Thank you for your fast response.
