FEEDBACK: Full-screen Applications for Mac?

[rstewartist]

Would love to see the CC apps utilize the "full size" window on Mac OS -- meaning they occupy their own desktop. I use a one-monitor setup and the desktop feature where you can swap between desktops with the Control + (arrow key) shortcuts. It's awesome and fast. Software like Chrome, Spotify, and Finder automatically occupy their own desktop when made full-screen. But Adobe apps... disappointingly, no!

I find that because the Adobe apps don't occupy their own desktop, I start getting messy with software hiding under them on a common desktop. Not a fan. I like to be able to quickly scroll between my open programs.

What do you think? Do you use desktops and Adobe? Would your workflow be improved if Adobe apps could occupy their own desktop?

Thanks all !

at least some already offer fullscreen mode.  click view>screen mode (if it's offered).

if it's not available for your favorite(s), Feature Request/Bug Report Form

Photoshop full screen -- ONLY available with a document open, doesn't allow for switching between open photoshop documents, doesn't open in a new desktop (occupies the current desktop)

InDesign full screen -- Non-functional "fullscreen" option?! Nothing happens when I click on this. I'm up to date. Is it just me...? Full screen preview mode doesn't allow you to work in the document. Full screen option not available to click on without a document open.

Illustrator - NO full screen feature.

Adobe is not prioritizing developing for Mac OS desktops--if it was, clicking the "maximize" button would automatically assign the software to its own desktop as a full screen.

Because there is no full screen, or the full screen mode is only available with a document open (photoshop), If you're using a desktop workflow, this means every time you close your documents the partial screen software will hop on to a different desktop rather than maintaining its position as its own desktop.

Surprised this is not yet a feature! Why am I paying for a subscription, again?

It's a daily frustration for me that Photoshop in particular doesn't play nicely with the Mac’s multiple desktops. Even when a single document is opened in full screen mode it still masks the current desktop instead of being given its own. The technology is baked into Mac OS and it baffles me why such a useful feature isn't taken advantage of. Dear Adobe, please fix this!

Has this been fixed yet?

It's still the same. It's been this way for numerous years. I drag Illustrator or PS off to another desktop when I have to use them.

Premiere CC would really benefit from it, with every pixel of screen height a valuable space for controls and screaming light OS UI elements. Lightroom gets it but not Premiere? Weird.

Annoys the life out of me too! PS & PP all on the same desktop..... when fast switching (Command tab)

I totally agree, its so annoying have to minimise illustrator, maximise photoshop a million times a day!
