1442920 2017-12-01 21:17:00 The Chromebook browser allows access to the tabs, and taskbar when in full screen. The latest Firefox, based on Chrome, allows access to Tabs, but not the taskbar. Is there any version of Chrome for Windows/Linux which does the same? If not, why not? It is a very useful feature on a small screen. mzee (3324)

This does not cover the issue of not being able to see the Tabs when in full screen, for instance if you wish to go back a page and it won't respond, you assume that a new Tab has been opened, so you have to go out of full screen to fix it. In Chromebook and Firefox you just move the cursor up to the top and the Tabs etc are displayed.

You can add an extension edgetalk.net BUT its VERY hit and miss as to what works and what doesn't. wainuitech (129)

Tried the extension, so far is brilliant! Just the job for the Dell Mini with a 10" screen.
