Full Screen Mode

Simplicity redefined.

Many CMS products cram so many knobs on the screen, it looks like the cockpit of a jumbo jet. Plone has always exceeded at careful UI arrangements. With Plone 2.1's full-screen mode, one click takes this simplicity to a new level.

Want to concentrate on a single page? Click the full-screen button and all the navigation, portlets and non-essential information is hidden, without reloading the page. Clicking the button again returns the familiar navigation user interface.

Combined with LiveSearch, this allows intermediate users to experience Plone as a lean and fast system for content editing — and makes power-users more productive.
