static readonly Cesium.Fullscreen.changeEventName : string

The name of the event on the document that is fired when fullscreen is entered or exited. This event name is intended for use with addEventListener. In your event handler, to determine if the browser is in fullscreen mode or not, use Fullscreen#fullscreen.

static readonly Cesium.Fullscreen.element : object

The element that is currently fullscreen, if any. To simply check if the browser is in fullscreen mode or not, use Fullscreen#fullscreen.

static readonly Cesium.Fullscreen.enabled : boolean
