hi

 

is there is a way to set true fullscreen (ie w/o status and navigation bar) for v-play app running on android JB and/or KK ?

thanks

Hi Vlad,

you would need to adjust the AndroidManifest.xml for that and for iOS something like this approach described on StackOverflow.

We’ll probably add a convenience solution for that with the next update and do make the sample games fullscreen too.

Hi Chris

 

any news on that?

I’ve mentioned ‘fullscreen’ property in Squaby demo, but it seems have no affect so far

Hi Vlad,

you’re right, we did not change the demos to use fullscreen yet.

You can easily do so yourself though, just create a new project from Felgo version 2.0.4, and you will find the AndroidManifest and .plist modifications needed for fullscreen there. These you can just apply to your games then.

Cheers, Chris

Hi Chris

 

I’ve tried to create android app from QtCreator Felgo template but it does not created AndroidManifest.xml

The one, created from Run tab in Projects does not contains any Felgo specific features

 

Is there is other way to create empty project?

 

Thanks

[Vlad]

Oops, nevermind

Stupid me. Just forgot to update to 2.0.4 🙂

Hi

 

it seems it doesnt works for android devices with software home keys (like Sony Xperia etc)

any solution on that?

 

Thanks,

Vlad

Hi Vlad,

afaik, you cannot hide the software keys, otherwise you would go against the Android UX.

As a follow-up to Christian’s post, it is possible to hide the entire chrome within an Android app, e.g. for a video viewer app. Android however automatically fades in the navigation buttons as soon as the user touches the screen, so this is not really an option for a game.

If you still want to implement that behavior you have to implement your own Activity and set the base class to QtActivity (or VPlayActivity if you use any of our plugins). Please see this post from Sony as a reference: http://developer.sonymobile.com/knowledge-base/tutorials/android_tutorial/how-to-provide-your-app-users-with-maximum-screen-estate-tutorial/

Best,

Hi Alex

what about Immersive mode on KitKat?

Hi Vlad,

thanks for the link, as in the post described it’s possible to hide all the chrome unless the user does a specific swipe gesture on KK, yes. The implementation steps remain the same as described above, create a custom subclass of QtActivity/VPlayActivity and override the required lifecycle method of the activity (be sure that you don’t forget to call super for every method override).

As Christian suggested we’ll probably add the required flags as a property of our GameWindow in one of our future updates, so stay tuned on that!

Thanks,

Alex

Hi Alex

 

as far as i understood, necessary code already added to QtActivity
