[SOLVED] Can't get out of full screen mode

<em>I have done something weird</em> to my configuration while running Kstars Build: 2020-03-30T18:05:26Z. I can't get KStars out of full screen mode. I'd guess this is not likely a bleeding edge problem but rather something I've toggled. The view menu will display "Full screen mode" or "Exit Full screen mode" but either leave Kstars in full screen display (on an Odroid-N2 UbuntuMate configured with AstroPi3 setupUbuntuSBC.sh).

Where is this state recorded so I can reset this configuration?

Thanks

To answer my own qestion: in .config/kstarsrc
setting:
WindowHeight=810
WindowWidth=1440

Let me get out of the catch 22.

When you use the exit full screen, while it stays full screen, do the maximize, minimize buttons show up in the top right hand corner? If so that will get you out of it.
Does super+H (the windows key)+H, how about ALT+F8 for changing size.
Some respond to F11 or Escape
Could always kill it and see if it starts up okay.

Adjusting the .config/kstarsrc did fix the problem for me, thanks.
The Maximum and Minimum buttons on the window and the top system panel menu are covered in the full screen mode. Nothing but the Kstars menus and sky display were visible.
For the record, killing the program didn't help, or rebooting or ESC. F11 was captured by my local OS X rather than being passed to the remote session.
