When reading books, we need full screen reading without using the browser's full screen. Here's why.

Because of the top toolbar (beginning with Family Tree) and the secondary toolbar (beginning with Records) and the book toolbar at the bottom (beginning with [i]). Then there is another bar that stays on top with the title of the book. All of this only leaves a tiny bit of space to view the map in the atlas.

When I zoom in to see and read the names of cities, towns and villages of Germany, I can only see a few at a time. I would like to see much more of the map. As it is, I have to zoom out then in, then zoom out then in, then zoom out and in again.

Using the brower's full screen does not fix all the toolbars you have on the page. Can you please make a fullscreen with the top toolbars hidden, then the book toolbar hidden, except on hover? This would give us a much larger amount of viewing space.

Thank you though for all that you do for us. I am forever indebted to you.

I have cross referenced this on a larger topic "New format for digitised Books. FamilySearch Digital Library"
