Split Screen issue

[petersioufi]

When you log on to vanilla Valence 6 using chrome browser and start in the launchpad, you can press F11 for browser full screen mode. An icon appears on top right for "split screen" mode. If you click on it an error is thrown saying split screen is not available and the icon is removed.

When you press F11 again to return to normal browser the icon re-appears with same consequence.

If you launch two Apps (e.g. Portal Admin and Instance Manager) then you can go to split screen mode and it shows both Apps side by side. However, at this point, it's not obvious how you can exit "split screen mode". I can't see a way to gracefully log out of Valence either because the user login section disappears. If you close one of the Apps, a blank screen replaces it and it seems you're stuck.

Is it possible to configure the "split screen screen" function out of the Valence Portal to prevent users striking this problem or maybe I'm doing something wrong? Attachment shows screenshots.

Thanks,

Peter,

As for exiting split screen mode currently you need to move the mouse to the top of the window and an option will slide down that allows you to exit.

In the next update of Valence 6 we will listen for the ESC key and if it's pressed we will exit split screen view. It will also output a message "Press ESC to exit split screen" so the user knows they can exit via ESC key.

Thanks
