In older versions of Android, it was necessary to use: android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"
in the manifest to make the title bar disappear.
In the newer ADT versions, I have noticed a SystemUiHider
class, which lets you make calls to it's hide()
method to remove not only the title bar, but also the action bar and navigation bar.
I am trying to write a fullscreen app, that I would like to stay full screen (for a kiosk implementation), unless a small hidden button is pressed.
I've tried taking the standard FullscreenActivity (generated from the new android project wizard), and prevent the UI from reappearing in a number of ways:
mSystemUiHider.hide()
in the setOnVisibilityChangeListener
(to try and immediately hide the UI when it detects a change in visibility)AUTO_HIDE_DELAY_MILLIS = 0
(to try and immediately hide it if it is visible)mSystemUiHider.show();
within the onClick
method of the contentView.setOnClickListener
(to prevent it from being shown)setSystemUiVisibility
example in the docs for android.view (again to try and hide it immediately if shown or visibility is changed)None of them seem to work (Android defaults to the Low Profile Mode for the Navigation Bar when any of these are tried.
I understand that they probably don't want developers doing what I'm trying to do, but I was hoping that I could extend SystemUiHider
(and/or SystemUiHiderBase
) and override the show()
methods to essentially not show unless passed a true
flag. I can't seem to find any documentation on either of these classes (perhaps because they're utility classes?).
Way 1: Touch “Settings” -> “Display” -> “Navigation bar” -> “Buttons” -> “Button layout”. Choose the pattern in “Hide navigation bar” -> When the app opens, the navigation bar will be automatically hidden and you can swipe up from the bottom corner of the screen to show it.
The navigation bar is pinned by default. If you want to view files or use apps in full screen, double-tap the Show and hide button to hide the navigation bar. To show the navigation bar again, drag upwards from the bottom of the screen.
It's a nice mixture of Android 9 Pie and Android 10 gestures. Go through the steps below to make changes. Step 1: Open the Settings app on your Samsung device. Step 2: Navigate to the Display > Navigation Bar > Full screen gestures > More options > Swipe from bottom.
Any interaction with the device brings back the navigation bar.
