Request: Fullscreen mode for art installation

[xdsopl]

I am very much enjoying exploring sound-to-image with Robot36; I am also not a ham radio person, but an artist with interests in space race/cold-war era media.

I have a strange request: Would you be willing to add the ability to hide the top menu area (leaving only the waterfall, amplitude and decoded areas visible)?

Why? Because I would like to use your software running on an SBC (like an ODROID N2+) in an art installation. Robot36 in auto mode creates really lovely visual patterns when intentional errors are introduced, audio from different images mixed, etc., so it is pretty ideal for the aesthetic I am working on, but I find the menu text and icons (in this context) too distracting.

While I could construct a custom bezel for a monitor in order to hide the "overscan" (like in the old days of CRT!), a software solution would certainly be more elegant.

I have no expectations and sincerely hope it is not offensive for me to ask.

Best Futures! -c

I just created the following branch, which disables automatic saving of image, the title and the menu bar: https://github.com/xdsopl/robot36/tree/art

Can you build and test it yourself or do you need an APK?

The app now looks like this in landscape:

And like this in portrait mode:

Fantastic! Thank you so much both for your willingness to do this and with the absolute lightning response. I do not have a toolchain to compile from source, so an apk would also be much appreciated.

Try the attached file. You need to unzip first:

art1.zip

I don't have the Odroid available right now, but this is workinv great on my phone!

Thank you again for this; I am truly grateful.
