Display Full Screen

Due to the nature of using registers in Quicken, full screen display is an absolute must especially on small laptop screens. I have read that some Mac programs can be set to automatically start up in full screen (Preferences > General > Uncheck "Close windows when quitting an app"). When the program is quit in full screen it then opens next time in full screen.

While hitting the green button to go full screen each time I use Quicken is not too much of a bother, it would be nice if Quicken were one of those programs that could be set to open full screen by default.

    Thank you. It is interesting, for example iOS Mail will start full screen if you exit full screen. Also, Quicken does not obey the keyboard shortcut "control-command-F" for entering/exiting full screen that works for many other programs. I don't know whether this has to do with the new macOS or if only Apple products obey these full screen instructions. MacOS is funny this way; it seems to want to open everything in small screens, an inconvenience for programs like Quicken that need full real estate. Nevertheless, we are lucky to have an excellent financial software package in Quicken Mac. My gratitude to all who work so hard to make it so good!

    I have set up a custom keyboard shortcut to open Quicken in full screen. Works fine. Thanks for the tip!

    Done, thanks again. I really appreciate the tip, the keyboard shortcuts will be helpful elsewhere too.
