/How/ Can I disable the “You've gone full screen” notification in Chrome with chrome extension?

I have got this manifest.json:

{
  "name": "Me",
  "description": "Disable Fullscreen notification",
  "version": "2.0",
  "permissions": [
    "activeTab"
  ],
  "browser_action": {
    "default_title": "Make this page red",
    "default_icon": "icon.png"
  },
 "manifest_version": 2
}

No, you cannot remove the "You have gone full screen" notification, because this message is a security feature. It tells users how to exit full screen mode in case they do not know.

The only way to get in full screen without this notification is to start up Chrome with the --kiosk flag.

There's no extension for that.. but still you can start chrome in full screen mode without that message by typing in terminal

google-chrome --kiosk www.webpage.

As others have pointed out, an extension cannot disable the notification. However, there are still a couple ways to go about disabling this "feature," such as by repiling the source code or using the following launcher for the win32 version of chrome which automatically patches the executable on the fly, available at https://www.dropbox./s/5rn7fx94ts73jfb/chrome_v3.zip?dl=0. Source is included.

Edit: Note that chrome must not already be running for the launcher to work properly
