OpenURL from fullscreen?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Beginners Area/OpenURL from fullscreen?

When I try to open a URL while my app is in fullscreen mode I get an error saying "GUI unavailable in fullscreen mode" and then my program quits. Is there a way to tell the app to minimize when opening a URL? I thought that was how it used to work... I need a user to be able to click something in the fullscreen display and open a web page in a new browser window as a result.

From my framework...



It requires (the now free) MaxGUI but it creates a dummy, minimised window that restores the main graphics window when the user tries to maximise it.
