Fullscreen alt+tab does not work. It keeps the viewer in front almost like it's set for 'always on top' but doesn't show the switcher window and just tabs between whatever else may be open.
I should've been more clear this morning. I cannot exit out of full screen hiting the ESC key without using my mouse.

It was a typo from this morning. I am on 4.2 and was running it when I posted it. It's been an issue since 4.0. I should've titled the thread 4.x.

If I have these settings - I think these are the relevant ones:

If I press F11 to get into full screen, and then Winkey+Tab, I get this:

If I press F11 to get into full screen, and then PrntScrn (which fires up Snip and Sketch), I get this
Attachment 174348
If I press any global key used by Windows, the text goes from full screen width, to the width of the viewer when its not full screen as can been seen above. the way out of the 'mess' is to hit F11, twice.
I can't get a Snip and Sketch screen shot with Alt+Tab pressed, but you should be able to work out what happens.
And I agree with the OP, Escape is the most common way to exit full screen, e.g. Youtube , Facebook, Twitter, etc, and image and video viewer apps.
Added: I never raised any of this before because I never read full screen, and if I want to read, as opposed to have a quick look at, something on desktop I use another viewer via Open With, e.g. Edge (for now) or the 3.48 viewer.

No Winkey+Tab for me either.
