So I have a node-red dashboard. I underestimated how much real estate the tab and address bar will take. Is there a way to run the NR dashboard either in a browser but without the tabs and address bar? Or is there another way to display the dashboard?

Right now I'm in a browser typing in localhost:1880/ui

The PC is dedicated to NR and it's dashboard running what it's supposed to do. It's not meant for anything else.  
Thoughts?

Does the F11 key work for you?

You can start [most/all?] browsers in kiosk mode.

For example a shortcut that points to

```auto
firefox.exe localhost:1880 localhost:1880/dashboard --kiosk

```

will open those two URLs without headers, tabs or footers.  
You can navigate between tabs with `ctrl 1` or `ctrl 2` and close the browser with `alt f4`
