<![CDATA[QMenuBar QAction MenuRole for "View / Enter Full Screen" menu item]]>I'm not sure since when but macOS began injecting a new menu item into the View menu called "Enter Full Screen". On my keyboard (Traditional Chinese / English dual) it defaults to the "Fn+F" key combo. The Fn key on this keyboard is by default the "change input mode" key for entering Chinese and has a Globe icon. In the Menu bar it appears like "Globe+F".

However, on some apps like Firefox it has it's own hotkey for entering fullscreen (Ctrl+cmd+f) and successfully updates the menu with that, so I know this automatic menu item is configurable.

I suspect this would be similar to how the About or Preferences menus can be manipulated with MenuRoles, but there is no ToggleFullScreen menu role. I couldn't find any discussion online about this, so I'm wondering if this is something that's even on the radar.

AFAIK, it's not on the radar yet.

You can check the bug report system for that and if there's indeed nothing, you can open a new feature request about that topic.
