So I need to change the app layer to some layer like bg (I > think it is not possible at run time) or change the topbar layer to the > fullscreen layer (I think this also not possible since it panel initialized > statically). Not setting any window/surface property at all should make the window maximized (as in, it will be in the normal layer). Compositor tells the surface to redraw itself to the correct width/height and set itself as maximized. The surface area would not exceed those width/height values (total surface area - minus the panel sizes). Changing it from fullscreen to maximized should, in theory, reveal the panels. The application can take measures to resize correctly when that happens. Now, I have no idea how exactly you set your window to be fullscreen, if you're using agl-shell-desktop protocol to let the compositor know that the surface should be fullscreen. This shows that we're missing (in that protocol) the ability to tell the compositor that it should basically, put/make the surface back as maximized (in order to reaveal the panels). > I know the whole scenario is not unexpected in real-world apps but I have > lots of other similar scenarios in my mine, I am just strugling to find > answer for them. If you not want to resize the surface to maximized, like I've said above, do not create any panels, but instead make them a pop-up type, that matches the panel dimensions. The dialog/pop-up window is like an on-screen virtual keyboard it is above all other layers. You can also de-activate it and activate (to hide/show it) using the agl-shell-desktop protocol. alexa-viewer is a dialog/pop-up type of application so you can use that to see what that needs to be done. PS: I hope you do not mind, I've CC'ed the mailing lists as maybe others would like to be in the loop as well about this, and I'd like to ask you do the same in the future. Either that or we use JIRA directly to further discuss issues. > > Thanks > Farshid Monhaseri -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
