Made the mistake of clicking on the "maximise" 3rd button on Firefox. Brought the thing into the annoying full screen mode. How does one get the hell out of this ? I ended up command Q and then restarting it. Nothing else seemed to work.

What does seem to work everywhere is moving the cursor to the top of the screen and clicking the zoom/full screen button on the window title bar.

Moving cursor to where the menu bar should be did not make it appear. Next time, I will try to remember the (bunch of modifiers)-F combo. I was able to alt-tab to switch to other apps, but as soon as I came back to Firefox, it would get back to the dreaded full screen mode.

First time, no menu mar appeared no matter where on top of any of the 3 screens the cursor was. But control-cmd F worked. in second attempt, i was able to get the menu bat to appear by having cursor on top of the Firefox window on screen 2 and the menu bar did appear on screen 2 (supposed to appear on screen 1). I just do not understand the purpose of that full screen mode.

Common sense wopuld be to cause the menu bar to appear where it is supposed to appear and thus to locate the cursor where the menu bar is mean to appear. Menu bar appearing on same screen as a window is not "common sense" when you have a single desktop with menu bar always on screen 1. (Neither is it for Apple to blank all 3 screen when you request a video to appear on one screen in full screen mode, which Safari insists on doing. (one of the reasons I avoid Safari).

In the case of Firefox, a menu bar appears and the top and "part of it" is a fake title bar. Both menu and title bars are one unit that is disp,ayed above the actual window (obscuring the top part of it.).

If I put Mail's main screen (which is on my secondary display) into full screen mode (green button), the main screen goes black. Likewise, if I move Mail to the iMac screen and green button it to full screen the side display goes black. This seems in fitting with the purpose of full screen mode which is to focus on a given task. Same behaviour: Chrome Safari Excel Quicktime : Exception: If I full screen QuickTime with CMD-F then the other screen stays up. -- She hummed to herself because she was an unrivaled botcher of lyrics. -Nick (Gone Girl), Gillian Flynn.
