Hiding the Nexus 7 action bar

[joneden]

Hi All,

On my Nexus 7 I have noticed that some apps are able to turn the 3 elements on the system action bar into dim circles. I'd like to do the same thing (or event turn them into blank png files) but am struggling to do that.

This is what the action bar looks like (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-u-3KNfy5n9M/TyG235X2rGI/AAAAAAAABHM/g_qGEXBdJW8/s1600/image00.png) and here is a link to the page that seems to describe how to remove it Say Goodbye to the Menu Button | Android Developers Blog

I've tried using

SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, "@android:style/Theme.Holo.NoActionBar")

in the manifest fiel but that doesn't do the trick.

Anyone managed this?

Regards

Jon

Hi NJDude - thanks for the link - just what I needed. Now if only it could be removed completely my Kiosk app would be perfect!

I'd been using the wrong search phrases....
