AltFullScreen Extension For Writer Help (for MS Windows Only)

Writer's native Full Screen feature doesn't allow access to panels or the Status bar or the Menubar.

This extension is an alternative full screen which is more flexible.

It only works on Microsoft Windows as it uses Windows OS Api calls.

Install extension and see the help file

TESTED ON WINDOWS 10 ONLY

Use at own risk - expect bugs, there usually are.

Edit: The reason Windows API calls are needed because of issues with the native setPosSize method
