When working with a large document, you may find it helpful to work in
gedit's fullscreen mode. Using fullscreen mode will hide the
menu bar, tab bar and the tool bar,
presenting you with more of your text and allowing you to better focus on
your tasks.
Turn on fullscreen mode
To turn on fullscreen mode, press F11. gedit's
menu, title, and tab-bars will hide, and you will only be presented with
the text of your current file.
If you need to perform an action from the gedit menu while
working in fullscreen mode, move your mouse pointer to the top of the
screen. The gedit menu bar will reappear, and you can select
your desired action.
To switch between open tabs while in fullscreen mode, press either
CtrlAltPgUp or
CtrlAltPgDn.
Turn off fullscreen mode
To turn off fullscreen mode and return to the standard gedit
window, press F11.
You can also move your mouse cursor to the top of the screen, and wait
for the menu bar to appear. When the menu bar
appears, select the Leave Fullscreen button.
