Hide notification bar on Ubuntu phone (QML)

Question

I would like to create and QML app with Ubuntu SDK for ubuntu phone. I am not able to hide the notification bar at top of the screen.

What is the way to hide it ? If it's not possible in QML only, HTML5 app have the same issue ? If QML only and HTML5 app cannot hide this notification bar, how can I do it in C++ ?

Answer 1

You can do this by putting your MainView in a QtQuick Window and setting visibility: Window.Fullscreen on that. I'm not sure that this is the recommended solution, but it does seem to work.

import QtQuick 2.0
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import Ubuntu.Components 1.1

Window {
    visibility: Window.FullScreen

    MainView {
        useDeprecatedToolbar: false
        anchors.fill: parent

        Page {
            title: "Fullscreen"
        }
    }
}
