Re: Profile variant taking into account full screen state
I presume by "fullscreen" you mean like playing a game/video etc, not simply a maximised window?
What about the browser when pressing F11 - does that count as full screen?
I'm not sure if there is a proper definition or flag on the window that says such info - I will have to investigate that. If there is, then it cant be that tricky to work out.
So you could then have two profiles for the same application one that activates in "full screen" mode and one that activates in windowed mode?
EDIT: I presume you cant already do this using the window class (I would expect them to be different, but maybe not).
I will add it to the list, but it will be quite a bit of GUI and profile work so it certainly so it wont be considered until after 2.21 has been released.
Request for the future, please try and be really specific in feature requests, ambiguity means either things get missed/interpreted differently which wont help anyone. I understand English is not your (nor many others natural language) which makes it even more important to try and be as precise as possible.
Also note, whilst not so important for a feature request I guess, the posting template and forum rules are there for a reason, and that reason is not "to be deleted and ignored". You may have told me a dozen times before your basic setup, but a) that may have changed and b) how am I supposed to keep track of all my users configurations. Its just much easier to fill in the template so I have quick visibility of the configuration.

Re: Profile variant taking into account full screen state
I'm sorry, I've updated the first post.
Yes, full screen like playing video games, not simply maximized window. Browser full screen from F11 also counts.
Yes exactly, so different profiles for windowed mode and full screen mode.
Classes don't change when switching to full screen unfortunately. At least not what I can detect with hover function of XMBC. Maybe there are hidden classes, but I don't know how to get to them.
Example for that is Amazon Luna in the browser. When running a game it automatically switches to full screen and exit the game if full screen ends. I'd like to preserve my browser profile while navigating the website, but have default buttons (or changed accordingly) while playing a game. I can add a profile for Amazon Luna (by using caption), but it works the same in window and full screen.
