What developer tools are not available in full screen. They should be available. Please post a screenshot of the problem. In the past some issue have occurred with MACOS and going full screen (the mask panel for one).

This is extremely likely to not be a request for change, but a request for help, as in Discussion, And a a one-off, as in not common, so not a bug.

If this was an true Idea, a request for change, you would need to sell it better, and a screenshot of what needs work would help with that, so please, that screenshot.

I mean "Full screen preview" mode. Just press F and you can get there. There is only zoom and hand/grab tools available.

That function is not meant for active edits. it just shows a preview in full screen. You look at it, you go Ah Frig, then you close it, go back into Develop Module editing and fix what you noticed.

To actually be in full screen with ability to edit (Full screen with , either use the menu commands (/Window/Screen Mode/Full Screen with MenuBar/) or Shift + F to work thru the options live

Yes the Preview Full screen is larger than the defaut in Full Screen (window)

[Kristijonas Lučinskas]

"...go back into Develop Module editing and fix what you noticed...", than go back to Full Preview again to check again if there is something to fix, because it just works better for noticing tiny details :))) We could bypass theese steps if we had some switchable tools in Full Preview mode.
