Full Screen Menubar - It's FINALLY here

[tomtad]

I've been waiting for this feature for over a decade and it's finally here. No more mousing to the top of the screen to view the time.

Full-screen menu bar​

You have the option to display the menu bar at all times in full screen so you can easily view the app menu and other glanceable information anytime.



Also some other nice changes to multitasking:

Swap out apps in Split View​

Swap out one window for another in Split View. Click the green button for a window, select the option to change windows, and select any of your open windows.

Change a Split View window to full screen​

When you select the option to make a window full screen while in Split View, the window expands to the size of your display and the other window previously in Split View automatically goes full screen as well.

… Soooo it's the same as hiding the dock and maximising

No actually, if you don’t want to hide the dock all the time then this is useful. Like for example when I am in full screen mode now I can see the menu bar but When I leave full screen mode the dock will still be visible but if you hide the dock it won’t be visible even outside of full screen mode.

that’s why this is a useful feature

I mean sure, I can see it as like a quick shortcut, but also, cmd+alt+d hides and reveals the dock. Now that then still requires more to then also maximise and un-maximise the window, so as I said, I can see it as a speed-up thing. But it doesn't feel that new to me I guess

On displaying the time: I have an iPad Mini 2 running the Alarm Clock App and it displays the time, date, day of week and weather. I hate to see hardware going to waste. I generally don't use full-screen mode but it's nice to know that I can.
