Lights out mode. #17

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Markers version:1.1.1
Device:N7
Android OS version:4.2

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Give markers to a 2 year old
2.watch her draw
3.watch her pull down the notification or settings tray
4.... 
5 profit? :-( 

It would be really nice if the app used "lights out", mode to disable 
notification and "hide", navigation bars. My daughter draws from edge to edge 
on the device and always runs her finger in such a way to make me nervous 

Meanwhile my 4 year old now understands to not do that. 

Love the app btw.

Lights out doesn't hide the status bar, but the status bat can be hidden via 
other means. The navigation bar cannot be hidden, unfortunately.

look at that, thought Netflix, for example, suppressed notification.. shows 
what I know :)

Anyway yeah though it's not possible to "hide" the nav bar (hence the finger 
quotes) the three dots might pull away the need to press it by a youngster.

Thanks for the reply.

In my experience the problem with the nav bar is that it's too easy to press it 
by accident (which lights out would not help with).

I'm experimenting with a version that hides the status bar.

When I tap on the lightbulb in the top left corner, the status bar at the top 
and the buttons at the bottom disappear, but they come back as soon as I try to 
draw anything. Is this what is supposed to happen?

I'm running version 1.2.2 of Markers from F-Droid on Cyanogenmod 10.2.1 on a 
Nexus 4.

Thanks for the app.

Might be a bug in CM; I'm not sure. It looks (from 
http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/cm-10-2-1-maintenance-release) like this 
roughly matches Android 4.3 in features, so this would be a version of the OS 
with the ability to hide navigation but not go into immersive mode. I'll have 
to check whether this is the same behavior on stock 4.3.
