How to set my mobile app as full screen

[dineshkumar]

Hi all, I am working on developing a browser for Nokia using Qt. I am using Qt Creator 2.0.1 for development. But after designing i am unable to set my app as full screen. Is any thing needs to be done at the ui file or with the main.cpp file please help me. Thank you.

Hi I change main.cpp into

#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include "mainwindow.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    MainWindow w;
    #ifdef Q_OS_SYMBIAN
        w.showFullscreen();
    #else
        w.show();
    #endif
    return a.exec();
}

#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include "mainwindow.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    MainWindow w;
    #ifdef Q_OS_SYMBIAN
        w.showFullscreen();
    #else
        w.show();
    #endif
    return a.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But it wont work... I think there is something need to be done at the .ui file is it right.

Thankyou

Hi all, I am using Qt Creator 2.0.1, my app is not run in full screen on the simulator. By the tutorial suggests in http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/H...Symbian_Device, I change my main.cpp file into following but it wont work.

#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include "mainwindow.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    MainWindow w;
    #ifdef Q_OS_SYMBIAN
        w.showFullscreen();
    #else
        w.show();
    #endif
    return a.exec();
}

#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include "mainwindow.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    MainWindow w;
    #ifdef Q_OS_SYMBIAN
        w.showFullscreen();
    #else
        w.show();
    #endif
    return a.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Is anyone know the answer please help me.

What exactly is not working ? The size is too big and get's out of the screan ? if this is the problem, I have the same. The solution is to be creative, redesign the layout's, make smaller dialogs / widgets, with recurse to scrolling, tabs, and so on.

@john_god showMaximized() doesn't fix your issues?

Back on topic, dineshkumar you can try showMaximized too, and also tell us more about what and how exactly is not working.

@john_god showMaximized() doesn't fix your issues?

Really doesn't fix. I use it in some large dialogs, they where ok in Qt Simulator, but on the phone (Nokia E71) they where bigger than the screan. Don't know if I did something wrong but they where bigger. Any ideas ???? This would really be helpfull, or else I'll have to redesign everything.

Don't trust too much in the simulator. The best think you can do is to have a device all the time plugged to the computer and all your test there. You could have some problems too but not so often.
