fix(desktop): keep html_render iframe fullscreen inside the window #33791

Openbaohappy02(GitHub profile, opens in a new tab)wants to merge 1 commit intomain fromrefs/pull/33791/headopened View on GitHub

Problem

Fixes #33709. Since #25835 the desktop preload reports any fullscreen element except a <webview> to syncHtmlFullscreen, which puts the window into OS fullscreen. An html_render page lives in an <iframe allow="fullscreen"> (BrowserDocumentFrame), so when the page calls requestFullscreen() the parent document's fullscreenElement is that iframe and the whole window jumps to macOS native fullscreen in a new Space. Before #25835 the page filled the app window, since the main window sets disableHtmlFullscreenWindowResize.

The fix also skips IFRAME in the preload check (apps/desktop/src/preload.ts), so iframe fullscreen stays inside the window as <webview> fullscreen does. Chat videos (MediaVideoPlayer, a <video> in the app document) still take the whole screen as #25835 intended.

Scope and approval

One-line fix for the regression reported in #33709, desktop only.

Tested

User actionBeforeNow
User clicks a full-screen button inside an html_render page in the desktop app.The window leaves its place and goes into macOS native fullscreen in a new Space; leaving it animates back.The page fills the app window, as before #25835.
User clicks a video's full-screen button inside an html_render page in the desktop app.The window goes into OS fullscreen.The video fills the app window, as before #25835.
User clicks full screen on a video posted inline in a chat message.The video covers the whole screen.Unchanged: the video covers the whole screen.
User clicks full screen on a video in a preview browser tab.The video stays inside the window.Unchanged.

Verified: apps/desktop typecheck (vp run typecheck), vp lint and vp fmt --check on the changed file all pass. The preload has no unit tests and the change is one condition, so no test was added; the rows above follow from the code path (document.fullscreenElement in an ancestor document is the iframe element, per the Fullscreen spec).

Not covered

The desktop app was not run, so none of the rows above was checked live, on any OS. The preload bundle check (verify-preload-bundle.mjs) was not run locally; CI runs it.

    2. Approvability

      Verdict: Approved at 86b570b

      Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Iframe fullscreen stays inside the desktop window instead of triggering native OS fullscreen. The change is limited to presentation and preserves fullscreen handling for other app elements.

      Walkthrough

      The desktop preload now excludes <iframe> elements, as well as <webview> elements, when reporting HTML fullscreen state.

      Merge Risk: Minimal · up to d998e

      Fullscreen requests from html_render pages should now stay inside the app window rather than triggering macOS native fullscreen. No actionable merge risk remains. The behavior was not checked live, so a quick manual check on macOS is worthwhile.

      Full details: Title check

      Explanation

      The title names the desktop fix: the html_render iframe should stay fullscreen inside the window. The raw summary confirms the preload now skips IFRAME in syncHtmlFullscreen, alongside WEBVIEW. The title is specific, follows conventional commit style, and fits the single change. Its 66 characters are slightly long but within reason.

      Full details: Description check

      Explanation

      The description follows the repository template. It has Problem, Change (the Fix paragraph), Scope (links #33709 and states a one-line desktop-only fix), and Verification sections. It states what was run, what was not run, and why no test was added. It also gives a before/after table of user actions. The template asks for screenshots for UI changes, and none are attached. The table partly substitutes for them, but it describes behavior rather than showing it. The template also asks for the agent model at the end, and the author included it.

      Full details: Linked Issues check

      Explanation

      Issue #33709 requires that fullscreen requested inside an html_render page fill the T3 window and not enter macOS native fullscreen in a new Space. The whole-PR diff (merge base e0d0fb3 to head d998eea) changes only apps/desktop/src/preload.ts. In syncHtmlFullscreen, the reported state is now element !== null &amp;&amp; element.tagName !== "WEBVIEW" &amp;&amp; element.tagName !== "IFRAME". An html_render page sits in an iframe, so its fullscreen no longer sets window fullscreen. Chat video fullscreen uses a VIDEO element in the app document and still reports fullscreen, so the video behavior that #25835 added is preserved. The change since the previous reviewed head (86b570b) only updates the code comment on the same line. The issue sets no automated-test requirement. Runtime behavior was not verified live; this verdict rests on code evidence.

      Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

      Explanation

      The whole-PR diff touches only apps/desktop/src/preload.ts. The change adds one IFRAME condition to the existing WEBVIEW check and updates the comment that explains it. Both directly implement the iframe-skip option named in issue #33709. No unrelated changes were found in the inspected diff. The file list was truncated, so the absence of other changed files is established only by the PR summary and description, which state the change is desktop-only and one line.

      Add a regression test for iframe fullscreen.

      Add a test that requests fullscreen from an html_render iframe and checks that the window stays out of OS fullscreen. It should fail before this change. Also check that an inline chat video still enters OS fullscreen.

      The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:

      the fix is written and reviewed, but proving it needs something no worker has:

      • Permanent blocker: macOS desktop outside the device pool is required to observe html_render entering a native fullscreen Space on base and filling the existing window on head; this VM provides Linux only, and accessing another machine is prohibited.
      • Inline chat video's native fullscreen behavior was not verified because the requested control comparison also requires macOS desktop.

      It stays open for a person to finish or close.
