Hi Everyone,
I got a file that I want to be in full screen mode when I open it.
I have seen some macro options on this platform. But unfortanitly these macro's do not work with me.
Maybe language issues or an older version? I do not know.
Hopefully someone can help me?
Greetings Steven

Re: full screen mode opening file
Open the file, switch to full screen mode, then Save it. It should thereafter open in full screen.

Re: full screen mode opening file
First of all thanks for the quick reply!!!
Ctrl Shift J = Full Screen
But how can i save this file?
Is it also full screen for someone else if i send the file by email?

Re: Open file in full-screen mode
The process I describe will only Save the OpenOffice Window filling the screen; you will have the toolbars and framing of the OpenOffice editing window. That Saved file should carry that condition forward to other users. I know of no way to Save merely the internal application screen as full screen (Ctrl Shift J).

Re: Open file in full-screen mode
But that is indeed what i want. Open a file with only the internal application screen as full screen. I know it s possible with a macro. But the macro's i found on the internet did not work with me.
But of course thank you very much!
Hopefully someone else knows a macro option?

Re: Open file in full-screen mode
To make an OpenOffice document open in full-screen mode automatically, you can use a macro. This approach allows you to bypass the need for manual intervention each time you open the document. Here's a detailed guide on how to achieve this:
Step 1: Enable Macro Execution
First, ensure that macro execution is enabled in OpenOffice. Go to Tools > Options > Libre/OpenOffice > Security > Macro Security and set it to 'Medium' level. This setting will prompt you for permission to execute macros when a document is opened
3
.
Step 2: Create the Full-Screen Macro
Open OpenOffice and navigate to the document you want to open in full-screen mode.
Go to Tools > Macros > Organize Macros > OpenOffice Basic.
In the dialog that opens, select My Macros.
Click New to create a new module. Name it something relevant, like FullScreenMacro.
In the macro editor, enter the following code:
Sub FullScreenOnOpen
Dim oCurrentController As Object
oCurrentController = ThisComponent.getCurrentController()
If Not oCurrentController.isFullScreen Then
oCurrentController.FullScreen = True
End If
End Sub

End If
End Sub

Thank you very much for the complete answer. A very clear manual! I really appreciate this.
I entered the complete code. But this part is not working with me. And I am a macro dummy
