[Qt-qml] Application usable area dimensions

[henrik.hartz at nokia.com]

Hi,

you're not looking for http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qdeclarativeview.html#ResizeMode-enum (potentially combined with QWidget::showFullscreen) by any chance? this is what qmlviewer (potentially with -fullscreen) also does for you.

Cheers,
Henrik
