Kiosk mode not working from package.json

[ghost]

Scenario:
Using v0.10.2 on Ubuntu 12, 14 and Windows 7 set the kiosk property of window in the package.json file to true.

Expected behavior:
The application will start in kiosk mode

Actual behavior:
The chromium starts for a split second in kiosk mode but as soon as the page loads jumps into normal window mode.

A working example of the problem can be found here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/49119521/test_kiosk.nw

Same issue with v0.10.5 on ubuntu 12.04 x86.

As a work-around I've added the following script to enter the kioskmode:

<script>
require('nw.gui').Window.get().isKioskMode = true;
</script>

but on changing the page node-webkit will unfortunately leave the kioskmode.

// edit: same with:

<script>
require('nw.gui').Window.get().isFullscreen = true;
</script>

Just for record:
kiosk/fullscreen isn't working in v0.11.0-pre on ubuntu 14.04.1 x86_64. It doesn't even start a split second in kiosk mode, it starts directly to windowed mode without noting something on stdout/stderr :(.

#2149 describes the same issue

Fullscreen == Kiosk ?

[salarelv]

fullscreen parameter helps but doesn't solve the issue.

Kiosk-Mode is working with current build of v0.11.0-rc1, at least on ubuntu 14.04.1 x86_64.

Don't know, what has changed, but awesome work @rogerwang thank you so much!

v0.11.0-rc1 Kiosk mode works also in Windows 7 but crashes on WebGL and Dev Tools.
