A lot of older posts about AVD manager and its Android emulators suggest that device screen can be set to full screen by using Alt+Enter. In my case - it does not work. Neither does F11 or other shortcut key do the trick. To sum up what I want to know is, does the AVD manager emulators even support such thing? If yes, how, if not - are there any workarounds for it. The target device is a touchscreen monitor, so running in full screen is most important. Bonus question - is it possible display the toolbar with control icons (for controlling rotation, volume, hardware keys etc.) separately from main window in case the device screen is in fullscreen mode?

  • if you haven't seen it yet, this SO post *might* be useful. it seems to have a lot of different answers and approaches: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29737499/how-to-resize-the-avd-emulator-in-android-studio – albert c braun May 16 '17 at 20:11
  • Thanks for the reply. This is not quite what I want. The scaling works with dragging the corner, but what I want to achieve is complete full screen. I know Genymotion allows that, but, as I said, I want AVDs to be able to do the same. – Andris Šilinis May 16 '17 at 21:44
  • Yes, it's true, I've seen a lot of old posts mentioning alt enter as a solution, but I guess this no longer works, I only managed to full screen by using Vmware Player with Android Image. Another desperate solution is to use a software that resizes the window, like Borderless Gaming (for Windows) Check here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrM_tNXX3uI – Daniel Aug 13 '20 at 14:47
