[BUG] Presentation Mode doesn't fully zoom to a slide due to Cinnamon desktop panel auto-hiding

[SirDoggyJvla]

I found a similar issue (#212) but my problem seems to be from a different source. If my screen is in maximized windowed mode, and I turn on the presentation mode, it doesn't properly make the slide take the fullscreen, like it's a bit unzoomed in the bottom direction, but if my window is in minimize mode, it properly has the slide in fullscreen.

I have tried:

• changing the slide default size (1920x1080, my screen resolution, up to 3840x2160, double size screen resolution)
• tried a new canvas
• closing reopening
• new vault
• combination of enabling/disabling the following options
  • unclamped zoom
  • zoom to slide without padding

What I found:
This seems to be due to Linux Mint's option for the panel (task bar) to hide automatically. When it's hidden automatically or intelligently, it breaks the preview

Demonstrations

Maximized window effect:

Minimized window effect:
(added a hello world node for the scale)

I also get a worse effect if I have the sidebar opened:

Disabling Cinnamon panel auto-hide fixes it:

You may want to try if changing the sleep duration for awaiting fullscreen fixes your issue. Try searching for 500 and replace it e.g. with 5000, restart Obsidian and try again. If this works, I can take a look if I can fix it for everyone.

So I tried changing in this line (

obsidian-advanced-canvas/src/canvas-extensions/presentation-canvas-extension.ts

Lines 328 to 330 in 18bac61

	// Wait for fullscreen to be enabled
	if (this.presentationUsesFullscreen)
	await sleep(500)

) inside the main.js file that comes with the downloaded extension from 500 to 5000 the wait time, which properly increased the wait time to 5 seconds but it did not seem to do it

Hmm, strange. Can you share a screen recording?

Definitely can, here you go:

Thank you for the help tho, at least I can still make the presentation work for video recording I plan on doing, but yea if a fix is possible that'd be even better since I won't have to swap my panel settings around
