AI-generated from the code · Odoo 16.0

Lets announcements open in a full-screen dialog by default when a system setting is enabled, instead of the normal small pop-up.

This module changes how announcement pop-ups are displayed in Odoo. Normally, when an announcement is shown to a user, it appears in a standard-sized dialog window. With this module, the dialog can be shown full screen.

  • The behaviour is controlled by a system setting stored under the key announcement.full_size. When this setting is active, every announcement dialog opens full screen.
  • The module extends the existing announcement model with a method that reads this setting, and patches the announcement menu so that the dialog receives the full-screen size when the setting is on.
  • It also overrides the announcement dialog template so the size passed by the menu is actually applied to the dialog.

No new menus, buttons, or reports are added. The change is purely visual and applies wherever announcements are displayed in the backend. If the setting is not enabled, announcements keep their normal size.
