B4J Question [SOLVED] B4J B4XPAGES remove titlebar in all forms

[Gnappo jr]

In this example, threepagesexample three forms are shown
I would like to omit the titlebar in all of them but I can only do it on the main one by inserting the command in the MAIN module:
MainForm.SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT") ' <====inserted
How can I do to obtain the same result in others?

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT") ' <====inserted
    MainForm.Show
    Dim PagesManager As B4XPagesManager
    PagesManager.Initialize(MainForm)
End Sub

That's for B4A

For B4J I think this is currently impossible; you should get the new forms before they are displayed. I think it will be necessary for Erel to modify the B4XPages library.

I apologize, but I didn't specify B4J

You can always access the native methods. Put this code in all the modules

Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    B4XPages.GetNativeParent(Me).SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT") <--- insert
    Root = Root1

You can always access the native methods

I know, and I tried that way, the project crashed. The error message was:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot set style once stage has been set visible

This is because for the first form, that of the B4XMainPage, you have to write it in the Main form:

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT")
    MainForm.Show

If instead you write the following code in the B4XMainPage, the project crashes:

Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    B4XPages.GetNativeParent(Me).SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT")
    Root = Root1

Try in

Sub B4XPage_Appear

 

[LucaMs]

Try in

Sub B4XPage_Appear

It would be worse.

It's fine if for the B4XMainPage you put that code in the Main form and the other code, which gets the native..., in the other B4XPages.

It seems, this feature is not cross-platformed.

I use

Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    B4XPages.GetNativeParent(Me).SetFormStyle("UTILITY")

in second and next pages after MainPage, but only in B4J and using the conditional compilation, and it's not needed in B4A for each Activity as a B4XPage.

Put it as first thing in B4Xpage_created
if you put it after root = root1 it will crash.

Edit:
Dont put it on Mainpage. Mainpage is affected by what is set in Main

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT") ' <====inserted
    MainForm.Show
    Dim PagesManager As B4XPagesManager
    PagesManager.Initialize(MainForm)
End Sub

Yes, because only in B4J do you have multiple forms, with B4A and B4i you have a single "activity".

 

[LucaMs]

if you put it after root = root1 it will crash.

No, if you put that in B4XMainPage the project crashes; for this one you have to set the style in the Main.

Exactly

So:

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT") ' <====inserted
    MainForm.Show
    Dim PagesManager As B4XPagesManager
    PagesManager.Initialize(MainForm)
End Sub

#Region  Activity Attributes
    #FullScreen: True
    #IncludeTitle: False
#End Region

Old 3 pages example

Old 3 pages example

'This event will be called once, before the page becomes visible.
Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    #if B4J
    B4XPages.GetNativeParent(Me).SetFormStyle("TRANSPARENT")
    #end if

#Region  Activity Attributes
    #FullScreen: True
    #IncludeTitle: False
#End Region

And i have no idea about B4i.

 

[LucaMs]

I think the basic concept is also wrong.
In Android-BAA, a B4XPages type project should have only one Activity, on which to "browse the pages". I think, I assume the same is for iOS-B4i. The same thing should be for Desktop-B4J, you should have only one Form but that's not the case. If I want to have more forms, I might as well create a normal B4J project.

It's impossible to make up 3 different things looking the same ideally, trying to preserve each to be fully-functional.
IMHO the result with 80% of cross-platformity is anyway super.

Of course, I'm not criticizing because I think the work done by Erel is excellent.
I am referring to the B4XPages project "concept". Even in B4J it should be composed of a single Form. I think I read a question about this topic some time ago, and that it is therefore possible (and should be by default). I look for...
