davilla any luck looking at the system ui flags I posted links to?
SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION
and
SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
seems they would have to be used together
http://developer.android.com/reference/a...ility(int) explains it fairly well. seems you would also use window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY so that the application stretches underneath the nav bar even when it's shown for more seamless transitions.
"This second code sample shows a typical implementation of a View in a video playing application. In this situation, while the video is playing the application would like to go into a complete full-screen mode, to use as much of the display as possible for the video. When in this state the user can not interact with the application; the system intercepts touching on the screen to pop the UI out of full screen mode. See fitSystemWindows(Rect) for a sample layout that goes with this code."
Code:
public static class Content extends ImageView implements
View.OnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener, View.OnClickListener,
ActionBar.OnMenuVisibilityListener {
Activity mActivity;
TextView mTitleView;
Button mPlayButton;
SeekBar mSeekView;
boolean mAddedMenuListener;
boolean mMenusOpen;
boolean mPaused;
boolean mNavVisible;
int mLastSystemUiVis;
Runnable mNavHider = new Runnable() {
@Override public void run() {
setNavVisibility(false);
}
};
public Content(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
setOnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener(this);
setOnClickListener(this);
}
public void init(Activity activity, TextView title, Button playButton,
SeekBar seek) {
// This called by the containing activity to supply the surrounding
// state of the video player that it will interact with.
mActivity = activity;
mTitleView = title;
mPlayButton = playButton;
mSeekView = seek;
mPlayButton.setOnClickListener(this);
setPlayPaused(true);
}
@Override protected void onAttachedToWindow() {
super.onAttachedToWindow();
if (mActivity != null) {
mAddedMenuListener = true;
mActivity.getActionBar().addOnMenuVisibilityListener(this);
}
}
@Override protected void onDetachedFromWindow() {
super.onDetachedFromWindow();
if (mAddedMenuListener) {
mActivity.getActionBar().removeOnMenuVisibilityListener(this);
}
}
@Override public void onSystemUiVisibilityChange(int visibility) {
// Detect when we go out of nav-hidden mode, to clear our state
// back to having the full UI chrome up. Only do this when
// the state is changing and nav is no longer hidden.
int diff = mLastSystemUiVis ^ visibility;
mLastSystemUiVis = visibility;
if ((diff&SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION) != 0
&& (visibility&SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION) == 0) {
setNavVisibility(true);
}
}
@Override protected void onWindowVisibilityChanged(int visibility) {
super.onWindowVisibilityChanged(visibility);
// When we become visible or invisible, play is paused.
setPlayPaused(true);
}
@Override public void onClick(View v) {
if (v == mPlayButton) {
// Clicking on the play/pause button toggles its state.
setPlayPaused(!mPaused);
} else {
// Clicking elsewhere makes the navigation visible.
setNavVisibility(true);
}
}
@Override public void onMenuVisibilityChanged(boolean isVisible) {
mMenusOpen = isVisible;
setNavVisibility(true);
}
void setPlayPaused(boolean paused) {
mPaused = paused;
mPlayButton.setText(paused ? R.string.play : R.string.pause);
setKeepScreenOn(!paused);
setNavVisibility(true);
}
void setNavVisibility(boolean visible) {
int newVis = SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
| SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
| SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE;
if (!visible) {
newVis |= SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE | SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN
| SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION;
}
// If we are now visible, schedule a timer for us to go invisible.
if (visible) {
Handler h = getHandler();
if (h != null) {
h.removeCallbacks(mNavHider);
if (!mMenusOpen && !mPaused) {
// If the menus are open or play is paused, we will not auto-hide.
h.postDelayed(mNavHider, 1500);
}
}
}
// Set the new desired visibility.
setSystemUiVisibility(newVis);
mTitleView.setVisibility(visible ? VISIBLE : INVISIBLE);
mPlayButton.setVisibility(visible ? VISIBLE : INVISIBLE);
mSeekView.setVisibility(visible ? VISIBLE : INVISIBLE);
}
}
