Description of problem: "xpdf -fullscreen" still shows Gnome 3 top bar. ooimpress and evince in full screen mode work fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xpdf-3.03-1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. xpdf -fulscreen some.pdf 2. 3. Actual results: Top bar from Gnome 3 shell shows Expected results: Really fullscreen Additional info: Same with Fedora 16 (last tested around 20111021)
I'm pretty sure either X or gnome-shell is to blame here, xpdf is doing the proper "give me full screen" request and not getting all the real-estate back.
Strangely, for evince and ooimpress it does work. gnome-shell-3.0.2-4.fc15.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.10.4-1.fc15.x86_64
I wonder if they're asking GNOME as opposed to X for the screen real-estate. xpdf doesn't do that.
I've come up with a possible solution, it seems to not only override the GNOME shell bar, but also let xpdf use the entire screen space on a multi-monitor setup. (I'm sure that someone will then file a bug that xpdf is using too much screen space in multi-monitor configs, but i digress.) It would be helpful if you could test this xpdf build not only in GNOME 3, but also in KDE & XFCE, in case I broke something there, as I am literally telling the WM that our xpdf window is the very very top, and there seems to be some anecdotal evidence that some WMs don't take that very well. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3459930

Scratch builds don't last very long. Here's a new build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3488186

Installed that one on Fedora 15 x86_64 (my Fedora 16 machine has no XFCE, etc); under Gnome it does work in that it uses the full screen, but in fullscreen mode I can't advance/go back with SPACE, AdvPage/BackPage, ... Ditto on Fedora 16 x86_64.
Updated my main machine to Fedora 16, and tried again under XFCE. Again, -fullscreen works in that it gives a full screen. But the only key I see xpdf react to is ctrl+C.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
