Hi @douglashetherington

Thanks for sharing this to us.

Yes, we recognized that we have a problem with the newest version of the Raspberry Pi OS in kiosk mode command.
So we planned to fix it in the next version.

Did you test the new approach on your set-up?
Is it working completely? With full screen and so on?

Hi @payam-zahedi,

It successfully launches the app but full screen didn't work. I just quickly ended up changing the my_application.cc file in the flutter project to add

  gtk_window_set_default_size(window, 1280, 720);
  gtk_window_fullscreen(GTK_WINDOW(window)); // <--- Added this line
  gtk_widget_show(GTK_WIDGET(window));

Which makes it work. - I thought i'd hidden the cursor but unclutter isn't working. Which is a bit of a shame.

I came across Cage - i've not tried it yet but it could be what you guys want.

Thanks @douglashetherington

we will look into this issue and will let you know about the future changes

In the newest version of the Raspberry Pi OS, the default display manager is Wayland. So all the possibilities of X11 will not work.

I fixed this issue in #6 PR, so we are support both Wayland and X11.

As You may have noticed, there is only a problem with full screen mode.

Under Wayland, certain keyboard features like alt + F11 won't work to make apps full screen. Checkout this issue

I added another command for the full screen issue. You can run the enable_fullscreen in the root of your flutter project to change your setting in your app.

Let me know if you need more information.
