Hello,

I am working on a app which needs full screen view. I must include a menu bar haveing cba button "Options  Exit".
But menu bar should be hidden and if user presses any of the soft key, it should pop up the menu pane.
Is there any method which can be used to hide and display menu bar?

I'm looking for it also  Grin! But a easy way (not a propper way), is to duplicate your view and change only inside the ConstructL the resource for the BaseConstructL...
You use the same container in both views... I know it's ugly but easy at the first step...
But i hope to hear about better solutions...  Wink

Hi guys!
There's Cba() function in CAknAppUi, with that you get the instance of CEikButtonGroupContainer which is derived from CCoeControl (iirc). So you can use SetVisible( EFalse ) and redraw!1 Cheezy Should work. Didn't test this.

edit: There's also MakeVisible( TBool ) -function.. try these

Sure it works, but.. I've a option & back Button
Code:
RESOURCE DIALOG r_folder_query
{
flags=EGeneralQueryFlags;
buttons = R_AVKON_OPTIONS_OK_BACK;
items =
...
but i only want to hide the options button, not the complete cba.
How to manipulate the basic R_AVKON_XXX-keys? Is there maybe a bitmask to set/unset or something like this?

Thanks in advance;
