Mac: Fullscreen Mode Disables Global Shortcuts

[Vuccappella]

Accessing dota trough fullscreen disables the ability to navigate between programs (CMD+TAB) or to take Screenshots (CMD+SHIFT+4) and possibly disables any global shortcuts assigned to the CMD key or any other key. I'm not sure if this is intended behaviour or if it's a bug, since this isn't how it functioned on the main client. However, this is a feature other games have but usually they come with an option to disable or enable global shortcuts and there is none in Dota Reborn.

As a side note, CMD+H works as sort of a CMD+TAB Alternative, it gets you out of dota, However if you use that method you can't hear the game is ready sound when you're out of dota.

A note for people hitting this: if you're running at monitor resolution switch to borderless fullscreen instead as a workaround.

It doesn't appear that Cmd+Tab is expected to work in true fullscreen, but I'm not 100% sure of that. The right thing to do here is to use a borderless window. However that does mean you can't run at a resolution lower than your monitor so I've switched this to an enhancement request to support a scaling mode. Then the actual window would be a borderless monitor-sized window and you'd get global hotkeys but the UI itself would render smaller and be somewhat less taxing.

Sadly using borderless windowed disables you the brightness setting. Only fullscreen has this and not windowed unlike the original Dota2 client.

You can only adjust the brightness in true fullscreen as that's the only time Reborn owns the display. In all other settings Reborn is just a window and changing the brightness would also affect the desktop (and the other way around too so regular brightness adjustments will affect Reborn).

With the 7/23 update you should be able to choose arbitrary resolutions with desktop-friendly fullscreen and use that as an exclusive fullscreen replacement. I believe that's the only route to supporting Cmd+Tab with fullscreen that we have available. Let me know if this works reasonably well.

Closing as there is no current way of adding the enhancement of Cmd+Tab in fullscreen.
