Feature Request: Hide "ArkOS Bar" when screensaver is running #139

Closed Disfunktional closed 3 years ago

Disfunktional commented 3 years ago

Is it possible to have the ArkOS bar at the top of the screen hide when the screensaver is running?

Transferring files or scraping can sometimes takes a while, and just feel that over time that creates risk of screen burn. If the bar was hidden when the screensaver is running that would mitigate the risk.

This is not something that I will work on. Good news is that the rg351p, rk2020, and rgb10 have IPS screens and they don't get burn-in. However, you could get image retention which is a temporary effect. If you're concerned about image retention or still a possibility of burn in, you can bring the brightness down to 0 using the global hotkey for controlling brightness (r3 + dpad down). This has the benefit of reducing heat generated from the panel and saving the life of the panel when you're doing these activities.
