1 - I pressed alt-tab while in fullscreen/windowed mode (either in the menu or on a map). Then I returned focus to the game (either through a mouse click or by pressing alt-tab again) and pressed ENTER.
2 - Pressing ENTER in-game (either menu or in a map) after returning focus causes the game to toggle between windowed mode or fullscreen mode (if you are in fullscreen it goes to windowed and vice-versa).
3 - I expected the game to remain in its windowed/fullscreen state after the press of the button ENTER regardless of it having been minimized or not.
I am running the latest patch (15.x) of the Linux version of the game on steam on Arch Linux 64bit using the Gnome desktop environment.

Re: Game enters window mode after ALT TAB and pressing ENTER
It simply sounds as if for some reason the game thinks your alt key is still being held down. Alt+Enter is a standard shortcut for switching between fullscreen and windowed.
Make sure your keyboard key isn't being stuck down for some reason. I realize that it is probably not the case though.
A simple temporary fix should be after you enter the game simply press ALT again.

Re: Game enters window mode after ALT TAB and pressing ENTER
Hi, thanks for the report. I don't know how to solve this properly. The game loses focus, so it doesn't get key-up event when releasing Alt, but it also for some reason doesn't get event about focus loss, so keyboard state is not cleared.
I'll change shortcut for fullscreen to Ctrl+Alt+Enter on Linux.

Oxyd fixed it properly, after all. So Alt+Enter will stay as toggle fullscreen on Linux.
