How do I make the Dash open up fullscreen in 2D?

I'd like to click on the Ubuntu buttom and see the dash in full screen as default. Am I able to do it using Ubuntu 11.10 and Unity 2D?


Solution 1:

just maximze it once and all future dash shall open in maximized fullscreen

enter image description here

click on the the third button from left on the top left corner

Solution 2:

In 11.10 & unity-2d I believe it may be determined by screen resolution, not sure exactly what the cutoff is.

If you get the non-fullscreen by default then that's what you'll see each time the Dash is opened, you can only get fullscreen by clicking on.

There is this thread with 2 posted code changes, don't see either working here on a laptop @ 1200X800

How do I make the Dash open up fullscreen in 2D?

As far as form-factor, same deal on this laptop, fullscreen only thru click on, always opens non-fullscreen.

(While not needed in unity-3d, form-factor to netbook does cause a fullscreen dash until the dash is restored, then the gsetting is auto set back to Desktop
