In full screen mode it is impossible to reach layers that have not been switched to active in the non-full screen mode.

This may not fully qualify as a bug but it is at least a severe inconsistency of the user interface making the full-screen mode less useful.

    Thanks for pointing it out. This was a design choice (to maximize available display space), but I can see how having the layer selection box available could be useful. Maybe there should be an option in the config file.

    Release 0.3.3 adds a new option to the config file. After you "save
    preferences", you'll see a couple of new entries in ~/.xournal/config:

    # interface components from top to bottom
    # valid values: drawarea menu main_toolbar pen_toolbar statusbar
    interface_order=menu main_toolbar pen_toolbar drawarea statusbar
    # interface components in fullscreen mode, from top to bottom
    interface_fullscreen=main_toolbar pen_toolbar drawarea

    Just add "statusbar" to the list for fullscreen mode.
