MacOS View Mode

macOS: 15.5 (24F74)

RubyMine 2025.1.1

My projects are opening in Full Screen mode. This puts them on a different desktop. Navigating between desktops means windows sliding on and off screen. It also means that a window on my second display, opened while in one project, disappears when I change to another project.

This is, at best, distracting, and at worst, difficult.

The documentation says I can switch between Viewing Modes from the project - but I would like to be have a default mode which is not Full Screen.

If what is happening is an OS thing, rather than a Jetbrains thing, my apologies. I have explored System Settings, and unset anything that is related to “messing around with windows”, but no luck so far.

Many thanks,

Anita Graham

I have a uploaded screen shots of the desktop display (Fn-F3) before and after opening a second project. (Upload ID: 2025_06_02_bubkSxkuPjVhr51C9auBGS)
