I want to end the fullscreen mode when the tab is changed or quickly switched. Is it possible to do it with javascript?
I have the following javascript code which ends fullscreen I want help in detecting the change in inter chrome tabs [using ctrl + tab shortcut] also in detecting the change in windows tabs like when a person switch chrome(any browser) to file explorer (for example)[using alt + tab shortcut].
My javascript code --
if (document.exitFullscreen) {
document.exitFullscreen();
}
else if (document.mozCancelFullScreen) {
document.mozCancelFullScreen();
}
else if (document.webkitExitFullscreen) {
document.webkitExitFullscreen();
}
else if (document.msExitFullscreen) {
document.msExitFullscreen();
}
I want to wrap this code in the switch tab function. Please help.
I also tried -
document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", function tabsswitch() {
if(document.hidden) {
alert('document hidden')
}
});
but that's not working when i change the windows tab for instance like i switch from chrome to my code editor and again back to chrome it does't show any alert.
There is HTML 5 API to detect if tab visibility is changed:
document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", function () {});
The Page Visibility API provides us with two top-level attributes: document.hidden (boolean) and document.visibilityState (which could be any of these strings: “hidden”, “visible”, “prerender”, “unloaded”).
This would not be not good enough without an event we could listen to though, that's why the API also provides the useful visibilitychange event.
So, here's a basic example of how we could take action on a visibility change:
function handleVisibilityChange() {
if(document.hidden) {
// the page is hidden
} else {
// the page is visible
}
}
document.addEventListener("visibilitychange", handleVisibilityChange, false);
I got similar issue, while using FullScreen mode tab visibility wasn't working. To detect the visibility while using alt + tab add this to existing code
window.addEventListener('focus', function() {
console.log('show');
}, false);
window.addEventListener('blur', function() {
console.log('hide');
}, false);
this worked for me! Hope this will be useful to detect the tab change in full screen and while using alt + tab
