I'm trying to program Alfred to open my Terminal, Sublime Text, and Chrome with a workflow.
I would like for my terminal to open normally as a window, but I've been trying to get Chrome and Sublime to open full screen.
I was able to get Chrome to open up in full screen mode with:
on alfred_script(q)
tell application "Google Chrome"
tell window 1 to enter presentation mode
end tell
end alfred_script
However, this did not translate to work with my Sublime Text.
What am I missing here?
Another way to do this assuming you have not changed the default keyboard shortcut for "Enter Full Screen" is simply to have System Events invoke that shortcut (⌃⌘F). As with the other approach I've seen to doing this (changing the value of AXFullScreen
—see mklement0's answer here for a thorough discussion of this method), this requires making the relevant window active.
For instance, to toggle the full-screen state of the frontmost window in Safari, run:
tell application "Safari" to activate
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "f" using {command down, control down}
end tell
