HIdden status bar not working in iOS7

Solar2D iOS
#1

I have built my app using the daily build as of today 2013-09-18 and use the following command to set the status bar to hidden in main: 

display.setStatusBar( display.HiddenStatusBar )

This is working fine if I build for iOS 6.1, however if I build for 6.1 when the application runs the status bar remains visible.

Anyone found a work around?

Try adding this to your build.settings:

UIStatusBarHidden = true
#3

Thanks for the suggestion, however it did not work - the status bar appears when building with SDK iOS 7 beta… If I build using SDK 6.1 then it works fine.

#4

Hmm.  I use both in my app, and it works on the live public iOS 7.

EDIT

Sorry I overlooked the fact that I built using 6.1

#5

i am not sure but i think apple messed that up with ios 7.0?

that’s why corona keeps telling us that we should continue to build with ios 6.1 :slight_smile:

#6

I have just created a new project and have the built.settings iphone table as:

iphone = { plist = { UIStatusBarHidden = true, UIPrerenderedIcon = true, } },

and when building with SDK 7.0 beta it doesn’t work. At a bit of a loss now…

Well that would make sense! 

#8

well, i just checked. apple messed it up with ios7.0.

also, i am experiencing some gamecenter issues.

<- still using 6.1 as for now

#9

I’m still seeing the status bar even when building with 6.1. I’m deploying to an iOS 7 device using the final software released yesterday. Using the latest public build.

#10

The engineers just fixed this.  It should be available in the next daily build.

This issue has been resolved and will be in daily build 1210.
