Android taskbar question

Hi All

I am currently building an app on an android tablet. My app is fullscreen. i have noticed that the task bar icons back, home etc turn into dots when my app plays fullscreen on the tablet. Is there a way of stopping that behaviour so that the icons are always shown???

regards Mike

Mike-

I think that is something is handled down at the OS level. If you do not enable full screen mode, the icon remain as icons. But if you enable AIR's full screen mode, you will get the dots. I think the idea is to suppress their appearance, as not to distract.

Hi Chris

I had a feeling that was not possible but always good to ask.

regards Mike
