Add-on summary
Changes fullscreen buttons so they will put a window around the fullscreen app. This allows you to put a Youtube video about a subject next to the paper you a writing or watch a series on Netflix while chatting. This extension will not reload the video you are watching, nor use some custom controls: it puts the website in it's own fullscreen mode.
It will present you with a small menu when you click fullscreen, so you can choose to go fullscreen or windowed.
