DON’T! Citrix Workspace is the app that you use to enumerate / launch applications and manage accounts. Please note, you might have seen Citrix Workspace in the list of applications and be tempted to select it. Hit the Application drop-down, and select Other. Just open System Preferences, select Keyboard, go to the Shortcuts tab, and choose “App Shortcuts.” MacOS allows custom shortcuts to be applied to applications. Please note, this process has been tested on Mac OS Mojave, Catalina, and Big Sur, and the flow for setup is identical between these versions. Fortunately, we can pin the “Enter Full Screen” command to a custom system shortcut. The options provided are to use the Green Button on the upper left of the window, which will enter / leave full-screen or use the “View” option in the menu bar:īoth options will achieve the outcome you want, but they require mouse movement and clicks, which, depending on your monitor configuration, may not be as fast as a keyboard shortcut, and cumbersome if you are navigating in / out of full-screen frequently. Try this on the Citrix Viewer window with your Citrix virtual desktop running, though, and nothing happens.
If you try it now on your web browser, you’ll likely see the browser go into and/or out of full screen as expected. You can use this full-screen shortcut to toggle applications between windowed mode and full screen. If you are a MacOS user, you’re likely familiar with the shortcut Control + Command + F. Because I’ve used MacOS as my “daily driver” for 15 years now, I wanted to follow up that post with one for MacOS users and detail how to enable full-screen toggle (and other tips!) using Citrix Workspace app for Mac. A while back, I wrote a blog post about adding hotkeys for toggling full-screen desktops using Citrix Workspace app for Windows.
I’m a big fan of using small tweaks to save time and improve the user experience when interacting with Citrix applications and desktops.
