How to have full screen and hide toolbar/statusbar in Qt Quick app for Meego Device?

Question

I am new to Meego development and my Qt Quick Application for Meego Device require to have full screen and not toolbar and no status bar. Also only for Portrait screen orientation.

I am using Pagestack for application navigation from one page to other. I got to be successful in locking to Portrait usiong Pagestack properties. But for toolbar and status bar no success. It has properties like

showStatusBar: false
    showToolBar: false

But these are read only and could not help me to hide toolbar and status bar.

I just want to know how to make application using fullscreen or either way how to hide status bar and toolbar?

Even using following code in qmlapplicationviewer.cpp

void QmlApplicationViewer::showExpanded()
{
#ifdef Q_OS_SYMBIAN
    showFullScreen();
#elif defined(Q_WS_MAEMO_5)
    showMaximized();
#else
    show();
#endif
}

so showMaximized() method to access not helping out yet. I tried using this method in main.cpp file also like this

QWidget window;
    window.showMaximized ();

But no results so for.

Any ideas would be highly appriciated.

Thank You

You can control the toolbar via QML and the components. This article should help on how.

Try QWidget::showFullScreen().

Answer 3

In the file: qmlapplicationviewer.cpp

change:

void QmlApplicationViewer::showExpanded()
{
#if defined(MEEGO_EDITION_HARMATTAN) || defined(Q_WS_SIMULATOR)
    showFullScreen();
#elif defined(Q_WS_MAEMO_5) || defined(Q_OS_QNX)
    showMaximized();
#else
    show();
#endif
}

to:

void QmlApplicationViewer::showExpanded()
{
#if defined(MEEGO_EDITION_HARMATTAN) || defined(Q_WS_SIMULATOR)
    showFullScreen();
#elif defined(Q_WS_MAEMO_5) || defined(Q_OS_QNX)
    //showMaximized();
    showFullScreen();
#else
    //show();
    showFullScreen();
#endif
}

Works great for me. Cheers.
