Hallo

How can I go back to normal mode instead of fullscreenmode? I have tried alt -enter but does not work on Mac OSX

Command-F (command as in Apple-key)

This is the full screen shortcuts for most applications on OS X.

The Cmd+F shortcut will be documented (i.e., you'll be able to look it up in Help) in the next version of Celestia.
Cmd+F is usually mapped to "Find (text)" in many Mac apps, but in Celestia where there is no text, I decided to
map it to "(F)ull Screen", like in VLC and QuickTime Player.

Thanks for pointing that one out :)
It's indeed only full-screen in applications which don't display searchable text and actually have a full screen mode. And even than not allof the time.

In fact, Apple should clear this mess up. In Apple's own DVD-player app - for instance - full screen is command-0, while it is command-F in QuickTime Pro, as you pointed out.
