How To Make a Content Page Full Screen

nobody@nfomedia.com (Nfomedia Team) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 08:41:28 -0500

Sometimes the information on a content page justifies Full Screen mode (i.e. hide the menus and increase the width of content area). This can be accomplished by using a new editor command. Simply enter the following command anywhere on a page to enable Full Screen mode (NOTE: works on any page EXCEPT the home page):

Full Screen - Syntax


[[fullscreen]]

Full Screen - Web View

You can read more about how to enable Full Screen mode in the Help Center at the link below.
