[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
You can - it will automatically restore if you reboot the device. Or you can start the app. It just does not do it automatically as it cannot detect that it is being updated and update does not restart app automatically.

There are quite a few other options too. You can unhide before update, you can start app after update and it will work correctly (you will usually get notification after update anyway that points to app). You may have other means to navigate and control it using shortcuts (I use gestures :o).

Now compare it to some other apps that require you to reboot device every time you want to hide/show stock bar ;).
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] fozzie:
I think we'd all agree that _having_ to reboot a phone after an app update because the phone is unusable, is not a great user experience.

Only if you haven't dismissed the notification, otherwise you cannot get to the apps lists, as there's no soft-key. Also if you were in an app when the update happened, you can't get to your home screens to run the app shortcut from there.

I must be missing something here, as I have plenty of apps that keep running after an update; in fact, we make one here. I'll ask our devs.

Unhiding is not an option for me as my apps are all set to auto-update, as I would expect most peoples to be and as mentioned above, I cannot start the app after an update if the notification has gone; yeah, you can say "stupid user cleared his notifications before checking to see if there was one from my specific app and therefore he should know that his phone will be rendered unusable without a reboot...." but I think there'll be a lot of people in that category :)

I thought the app needed to be running for gestures to work, no? I don't really want to install another app so that I can restart this one after an update.

That's not ideal!

Don't get me wrong, this is a superb app and probably one of the most used on my N4, but I can't help thinking that there's a better way to handle the app auto-updates.

Hello StupidIdea,

your wunderfull app now i tested on Sony Xperia L ( c2105). works great. :good:

Now i can control buttons and navbar high, awesome. Sonys original navbar is to high and buttons not configurable and the device have no harwarebutton, so i cant until now the original in build.prop.

But I have a problem. And though overlaps your app all other apps on the screen. Sometimes it would be nice if I could leave your navbar permanently visible without that it overlaps the screen. Is there a possibility to park the overlap? On a device without Hardware buttons that would be a sensible option I think.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] :
on my note 2, what about long press back button to open multiwindow panel? how can I enable it because currently long pressing back button on GMD auto hide bar does nothing but going back previous app.

your Xperia Z had the same problem as my Xperia L, no Hardwarebutton. I found even a version without overlapping is better for this devices.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] magnamentis:
please share _ which versions

nice that you found a version without overlapping, since this is one of the best if not the best tool to hide and show menubar as needed i would not easily change to another app but if you know one which does not overlap the dock "even when not visible" please let us participate so we can try and compare. :) please !

You have to uncheck hide soft keys in settings, then switch it off manually in the rom for the system ui via expanded desktop. Just make sure you have keep status bar on in expanded desktop. I'm using this on cataclysm rom just fine ;).

Just so there isn't anymore confusion about the dev being supportive just remember in the op he does give you a link to the main thread for the app...so you should probably put any bug reports there before complaining.

On my 2012 Nexus 7 (there's no topic for this app on that forum, I don't think), suddenly, I can't get the soft keys back when disable soft keys from within Auto Hide Soft Keys. Closing the app doesn't help, either. Even a reboot won't get them back.

Any suggestions?

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

Never mind. I'm running CM 10.1 and had expanded desktop on along with Auto Hide. So when I turned off Auto Hide, the expanded desktop was still active, therefore, no soft keys.

Trigger zone in top of the keyboard ?

Hi,

On my Galaxy Nexus (i9250 running 4.3 stock), the trigger zone (here in red) is located at the top of the keyboard. Of course, when trigged, the soft keys appear at the bottom (over the bottom line of the keyboard).

Is this a bug or a feature ?

I'm not sure if I should post this in the lightflow thread or this one, but it seems these two apps don't play well together. Once I enable hiding soft keys, lightflow gets very confused and starts flashing the led when the screen is off even when there is no notification. Turning off hide soft keys and rebooting fixes everything.

Are these two apps modifying the same files and fighting with each other?

Great idea. Just make your navbar configurable and really similar to the stock one, and add an option to hide the navbar automatically only in some apps.

i have installed this on xperia z but have some bugs. the resolution of softkeys is bad, should be as the default xperia' softkey. the swipe to hide and restore navbar doesn't work very well and sometimes it restore the default background. but it's a very good star and idea :)

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
I uploaded new version and button layout should be fixed. I will draw more themes when navigation bar hiding is stable.

It rebooted device when you swiped the trigger to display status bar replacement? Anyone else experience this?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] ratcav:
The new button layout is cool, maybe a little too small.

BTW, I have reduced navbar (the ability to set navbar size that is also in Shubi builds), and when I deactivate this program the navbar goes back to it's original size, and the signal icon in the status bar is like when you don't have signal at all.

The solution is to re-apply the navbar size and activate/deactivate plane mode.

It's not a big deal but it's a little annoying.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] StupidIdea:
One more update:

0.3:

- Added ability to swipe on buttons after showing autohide bar without releasing screen.

- Bugfixes

Also I automatically hide bar when some button is clicked, except for Back button. I think it is quite common that back needs to be clicked several times. I will add option in settings to control this behavior.

Hello, I purchased the pro version and its great. There is only one thing I have a question about. I have it set so that the keys only auto hide when I press "anywhere on the quick nav bar". So that in landscape mode while playing games I can tap the quick nav to hide the keys, and then swipe up when I need them. But even though I have that set as the only trigger the keys still hide every time I for from landscape to portrait, and vice versa. And then I have to swipe to get them back. Is there anyway to have the quick nav keys stay on the screen no matter what I do unless I trigger it myself? Thanks
