Is it possible to implement an option to hide the title bar for a worksheet in full screen mode ?
It takes up unnecessary workspace and is not useful for working with a single sheet.
In the case of multiple sheets open, it is possible to use the CTRL+TAB keyboard shortcut to select them.

Re: Option to hide title bar for worksheet in full screen mode
Hi,
The title bar for worksheet or open drawings tabs is a QTabBar of the RMainWindowQt.
That has an autoHide parameter set to false.
Setting to true seems to be hiding when there is just one open drawing, one tab.
But this doesn't enlarge your drawing area, there is only a reserved empty space above the horizontal ruler.
Similar when using the hide() function but then functional with more open drawings, more tabs.
Opening a new file counteracts this.
Further digging it seems that the minimum size (hint) is 24 pixels high and that the vertical size is fixed.
It seems that this is all geared to showing and then hiding on preference may be plausible.
First thing I would start to miss are the close buttons.
I would also be missing an overview of which drawings are currently open.
True, I can see an overview in the 'Windows' menu ...
... But you also proposed to hide the menu bar.
Both propositions are probably intentionally limited for the Full Screen (F11) mode but still ...
I think that we can expect many support questions in the nature of: 'How to access other open drawings'.
