Value

Name	Type	Description
value	bool	The fullscreen property of a stack is either true or false. By default, the fullscreen property of newly created stacks is set to false. Setting the fullscreen of a stack causes the stack to take up all available space on the screen, this includes space occupied by desktop furniture, for example the Taskbar on Windows and the Dock on Mac OS X. When the screenRect is changed, any stack with fullscreen set to true will automatically resize to fit the new screen size. Changing the size or position of a stack with fullscreen set to true will have no effect. When a stack has its fullscreen set from true to false, the rect of the stack is restored to the value it had immediately before the fullscreen was last set to true. When a stack is full screen, all decorations are removed, however the decorations property still reports the decorations that the stack had prior to being made full screen. The decorations are restored when a stack is made non-full screen.
