PrimeFlow Full Screen Mode
Use PrimeFlow full screen mode to focus on a canvas while keeping canvas controls, shortcuts, and node editing available.
Full screen mode gives the current PrimeFlow canvas more room for planning, reviewing, and presenting connected work. Use it when you want fewer distractions around a project map, mind map, workflow, CRM relationship map, or planning canvas.
PrimeFlow full screen mode does not change the canvas itself. Your nodes, connections, filters, saved canvas, and Space stay the same.
Full screen mode is available on Standard and Pro
General PrimeFlow full screen mode is available on every PrimeTask license. Mermaid fullscreen viewing is separate and requires Pro because Mermaid nodes are part of the Pro tier.

If you leave full screen mode, the canvas stays open and your work remains where it was.
Save still matters
Full screen mode changes the viewing experience. It does not save the canvas. Use Save or Save As when you want to keep canvas changes.
Header visibility in full screen mode
PrimeFlow full screen mode keeps the normal canvas tools available. If you want more room, press H to hide the header. When the header is hidden, PrimeFlow keeps quick controls available so you can show the header again, toggle the node library, or leave full screen mode.
Press H again or choose Show Header to bring the header back.
Node library in full screen mode
Press L to show or hide the node library while in full screen mode. This is useful when you want to focus on the existing canvas, then bring the library back when you need to add more nodes.
For adding nodes, see Adding Nodes in PrimeFlow.

Full screen mode and FlowMode
FlowMode is a Pro feature for guided journeys through a canvas. Full screen mode gives FlowMode more room during reviews, walkthroughs, and presentations.
Press G to toggle FlowMode when it is available, or use the FlowMode controls from PrimeFlow.
For details, see PrimeFlow FlowMode.
Full screen mode and Mermaid diagrams
PrimeFlow full screen mode is different from the Mermaid diagram fullscreen viewer.
- PrimeFlow full screen mode enlarges the whole canvas experience.
- Mermaid fullscreen viewer opens a Mermaid diagram in its own focused viewer with diagram-specific zoom, pan, compare, and version tools.
Mermaid nodes and the Mermaid fullscreen viewer require Pro.
For the tier map, see PrimeFlow Standard and Pro.
Full screen mode and export
Full screen mode is useful for preparing a canvas before export. It gives you more room to review node placement, connection visibility, and the current canvas appearance.
Export still uses its own export window where you choose format, quality, background, title metadata, watermark, and logo options.
For export details, see PrimeFlow Export.
Things worth knowing
Full screen mode is a viewing mode
It does not create a separate canvas and does not change your saved canvas list.
You can keep editing
You can still add nodes, move nodes, edit content, use filters, open the node library, and save while in full screen mode.
It is best for larger canvases
Full screen mode helps when a canvas has many related nodes or when you are reviewing work with someone else.
It does not replace FlowMode
Use full screen mode when you want more room for any canvas. Use FlowMode when you want a guided journey through selected parts of a canvas.
