Title not hiding properly

[barx]

I have noticed this on every app i've made so far. Even though I set the attribute

   #IncludeTitle: False

When the app first starts I see the title for a second or so, then the desired appearance shows.

Some screens to show this effect

app first loads



a second or so later



Is it possible to avoid this and start with the desired view instantly. Many apps that i have installed from market don't have this issue?

Thanks

The title will always show up when you use layouts created with the designer.

Now then stranger! lol

How's things?

So it's designer related and no way round it then. That sux a little. I think it tends to look a little less professional.

OK, figured a workaround out.

Open Manifest editor and add the following

SetActivityAttribute(Main, android:theme, @android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar)

Does this work from Android 2 up, or does this only work with Android 3 or greater?

I have no idea margret though i cannot see why it wouldn't work <v3.

Should be getting my hands on a 2.3.6 device today so will test it out a little later to see how it goes.

Barx, the line you indicated will work, however, if you target SDK > 11 you won't see the Holo theme.

Just tried it on a galaxt ace running 2.3.6 and it seems to do the trick!

I hadn't realized that I had referenced the Holo theme. Is style/Theme.Black just a standard theme. Seems to work on < v3.

I must offer an apology to NJDude here as I have just realized what he was talking about. If you wish to use the Holo theme then use this line instead

SetActivityAttribute(Main, android:theme, @android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.NoActionBar)

This still may need some tweaking as not tried it on Gingerbread yet. Maybe some version folders needed. Will report back after some more tests.
