I'm using OBS 0.11.2 on Ubuntu 15.04 with Unity. My desire is to use the Fullscreen Projector preview to send my stream to a local monitor in my auditorum. This works great except that 'Fullscreen Projector preview' is not 'fullscreen' in the Unity desktop environment.
Unity places a gnome-panel across the top of each screen. You can not remove the panel anymore like you could in Gnome2. While the Unity Launcher can be put on one screen only, or AutoHide turned on, the gnome-panel is not settable. There is a setting to make the gnome-panel opaque (off for me currently) for fullscreen applications.
If I hit F11 while using Chrome or Firefox, the browser takes over the full screen and I don't see the gnome-panel along the top. Same is true for many applications like VLC when I enter fullscreen mode. So fullscreen mode is certainly possible in a Unity environment.
In OBS, when I send the 'Fullscreen Projector preview' to a monitor, the gnome-panel, with all of its indicators remains along the top of the screen. The panel shows the OBS title bar for the Application. It does not matter if I have the application menus displaying globally or in each windows title bar. Making the top panel opaque or non-opaque for fullscreen applicatoins has no effect either.
Am I missing something that could be set within Unity/Gnome environment to correct this, or is 'Fullscreen Projector preview' really 'full width and height window' projector mode by design?
Thanks in advance,
John
