Overview
Product summary
Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.
Changes fullscreen buttons so they will put a window around the fullscreen app. This allows you to put a Youtube video about a subject next to the paper you are writing or watch a show on Netflix while chatting. This extension will not reload the video you are watching, nor use some custom controls: it puts the website in its own fullscreen mode. Now also supports Picture-in-Picture mode when fullscreening a video, but this takes away the websites video controls.
---
This extension requires "Read sites data" permission to function, but you can right-click the extension icon, click "This Can Read and Change Site Data" and enable it only for websites that you are comfortable with. Also the source is open, so you can read that no data is actually read or changed by this extension :)
---
It will present you with a small menu when you click fullscreen, so you can choose to go fullscreen or windowed.

Just what a needed to prevent fullscreen youtube taking over my 49" widescreen. Thanks !
Great extension since there are no alternatives to make a "windowed fullscreen" Sometimes chrome crashes with the error message "out of memory" because of this extenstions When you refresh the page the problem is usually solved If there is anyone having the same issue or an idea about how to solve this please let me know
Works very well on most popular websites (Youtube, Twitch), but recently on others it will cause constant extreme cpu usage under certain conditions (Ponopto with many videos embedded, Canvas with PDF files embedded). I spent hours tracking down why my CPU usage was extremely high when just browsing, it all came down to this extension. Sad that I will not be able to use it anymore, this was really a treat to use when it worked. Maybe this is an issue with chromium (version 105), maybe the extension, IDK.
Wow, I didn't expect it to work so well. It's exactly what I was looking for.
This extension is great. I love the windowed option, BUT I wish there was a way to open windowed in a NEW window.
I used this extension for years, and now is part of my workflow (this works on Windows and Linux, yay!) The only problem I had was that pressing the letter "F" didn't fullscreen as usual, but after asking the developer for this change he added the feature. Great work, and thanks taking the feedback!
Been using this for a few years now and it's pretty damn good. I especially love the picture-in-picture mode, it gives you an always on top borderless resizable window. I like to use this while I play a video game, I can put a movie or a twitch stream in a little window in the corner of my game screen. Can confirm it works with Plex and Twitch.tv in addition to the sites mentioned in the description.
Works as intended and it's absolutely fantastic. This is how every website should behave - and it was once I've installed this extension.
It doesn't work. Using google chrome. I press full screen while having the windowed option selected and it just goes full screen like usual. I would love to be able to use this. EDIT: i figured out how to use it - if i have the option set to Ask instead of having the option of windowed selected, it will ask and work as it should.
I like the idea, and all seems nice. However, on Windows 11, the Windowed mode doesn't work as intended; rather, it behaves the same way as regular fullscreen.
