[Android-development] android: android actionbar appears and never hides when calling openOptionsMenu

[maitai]

Hello again,

After much digging in qt sources I found a workaround for that and 
succeeded to hide the actionBar. I opened QTBUG-52964 for that, see for 
more explanations.

Regards
Philippe
