With these couple of tweaks the fullscreen mode becomes fully operational with all the controls that you would ordinarily need. Both seem to be speed sensitive ie a slow traverse will activate it, whereas a fast traverse does nothing.
#MODARTT PIANOTEQ 5 FREE HOW TO#
If you know how to activate the "Detachable Window" boundary in Pianoteq then you will have a fair idea how to summon the control panel from the boundary. It is a rather finicky boundary and I haven't learnt how to control it with a first cursor movement as yet. If you move the cursor slowly across the boundary you activate the control panel with "File Edit Window Help" and their associated drop down menus. That boundary between the desktop wallpaper and the top of the displaced fullscreen image is sensitive to cursor movements. If I drag the fullscreen image down a slight bit more it starts to reveal the underlying desktop wallpaper at the top of the screen. I found that it is not so much the case that the application image is moving relative to the screen but rather the fullscreen image is moving relative to the physical screen.
If I press Alt+left click, I can grab the image and move it around the screen, so I can re-centre the application image on the screen ie with the midi controls visible and no gap below the piano keyboard.
When I initially go into the fullscreen mode, I can see the zone with the midi controls and no gap below the piano keyboard but then the application image jumps up the screen, seemingly to restore that gap below the application image. The midi controls almost vanish off the top of my screen and there is a reasonable gap between the bottom of the piano keyboard and the bottom of my screen.
I have a similar problem if I go into fullscreen mode, whilst running Pianoteq on Debian 9, with an Xfce4 window manager.
