Full immersive mode for Edge. No Tabs no url bar. Just a Frame

Iron Contributor

In this immersive mode make the experience and frame like the PWA except for some feature :

1. When the there is a single tab, tab bar should be absent.

2. Pressing F4 reveals the the URL/Address bar.

3. May be F2 and F3 can assinged to go back and forward in history

@HotCakeX I agree that the new full screen mode is very good. but if it gets into windowed mode instead of a full screen it would be better.

Well there is also the Focus mode, have you tried it? should be enabled using the flag "Focus Mode" edge://flags/

it takes 2 clicks to either go into or get out of Focus mode.

 

it currently doesn't have a shortcut key

but once it gets one, i think it will be similar to what you're looking for, that and the new fullscreen mode

 

like

  • F4 key (need to be implemented) for focus mode
  • F11 key (already set) for new fullscreen mode with access to tabs and address bar

 

for what it's worth, I hope they consider adding a shortcut key for focus mode while considering your suggestion too :)

@HotCakeX but its has got very large border same as the browser window. See below

Yes it's their new design system, Google Chrome is also the same
