Android Studio 4.1.1 MACos Full Screen Error

Android Studio 4.1.1 macOS Full Screen Error

System Preferences > General > set Prefer Tabs to never when opening documents.

Alternatively, run this on Terminal and restart Android Studio:

defaults write com.google.android.studio AppleWindowTabbingMode manual

This works while keeping the tabs active for other apps.

Dialogs are displayed as tabs in Android Studio IDE then the IDE becomes unresponsive

I had the same problem in fullscreen, it seems it is related to big sur, I had to run this on the terminal and restart the android studio

defaults write com.google.android.studio AppleWindowTabbingMode manual

I found the tip here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/64837992/2551801

This should help in the mean time a new stable version is released.

If you are on Mac, this is likely a problem with the latest Big Sur update. Check out the following answer for the solution.

AndroidStudio crash on macOS Big Sur beta

Any chance that you have external monitors connected? I'm experiencing the same issue and the crash happens whenever any Android Studio window is in the external monitors. This is a known and resolved JDK bug (see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JBR-2790). I know of two workarounds, but they are both not ideal:

1. Don't connect any external monitors, or...
2. Change your JDK runtime to a version with the bug resolved:
   
   1. You will need to install a plugin to allow you to choose your runtime, see https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544879-Selecting-the-JDK-version-the-IDE-will-run-under.
   2. Download and install a working runtime from https://adoptopenjdk.net/nightly.html?variant=openjdk11&jvmVariant=hotspot (i.e. version 11.0.9 works, no crashes but you lose some functionality such as accessing Preferences and Layout Editor)
   3. From Android Studio, choose the new runtime (Help > Find Action... > Choose Runtime...)

Unfortunately I have yet to find a runtime that doesn't compromise some kind of functionality in AS.
