What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. switch to monitors view
2. enable full screen


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
There is no option to exit full screen. Even after a restart of the
software. Since I have no keypad, I cannot press 6

Please provide any additional information below.

Hi there, i am also experiencing this problem. HTC Touch Pro, Windows 6.1. When I
enter Monitors View, there will be no option to switch back to the Map View, or away
from Fullscreen Mode. I have a keypad with the number 6, but that doesnt work either.
This is with version 0.4.16 released Jan 11, 2009.

The only way for me to resolve this, is by re-installing the application.

actually i found a workaround. If you have external hardware volume keys, press them.
The windows mobile volume settings should pop up and with it the menu buttons of
gpsvp. From there you can exit fullscreen.

Hmm, maybe works if you have very standard windows volume, but on the nice Touch HD 
(and probably many others) the volume screen is also full screen, so no menu's 
appear.

Maybe a simople context menu should be added to all the monitor selections to leave 
fullscreen. Probably simple enough, all the code is already there.

Added a context menu for fullscreen in monitor mode, similar to the already existing 
one in normal mode. This allows to enter or leave fullscreen in devices without 
hardware buttons, like my Touch HD

i just installed the new version gpsVPppc2003_0.4.16.zip - still i can't switch back 
from full screen in monitors view.

the work around i found is turn ON the virtual keyboard and press 6

That is correct. Publicly available build 4.16 was build in January. If you look at
the dates above, you'll find the fix was from March. You'll have to wait for the
development code to be made into a new build, or checkout the development code and
compile it. If your device has access to a keyboard (virtual or physical) than you
are indeed covered.

i have another solution for now: i've assigned a physical key to jump to fullscreen 
(and go back)

i am gonna wait for the next release. and i will report any other bug ;)

keep the nice work here!
