[Bug 1521948] Re: [indicators] + [mobile] hide indicator bar when mobile devices rotate into landscape

 

We had a little bit of a discussion with Gerry, Ben and myself. The rule we came up with is as follows:
Every single time the OSK pops up in landscape mode, indicators are hidden. This applies only for phones and tablets.

Title:
  [indicators] + [mobile] hide indicator bar when mobile devices rotate
  into landscape

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Fix Committed
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Issue:
  In the current build the landscape mode is showing indicators in apps which are using it. Displaying the indicator bar takes away some screen estate, especially when the OSK is visible as well. Design and SDK are working on reducing the header hight when mobile devices are rotated into landscape but hiding indicators needs to be done system wide.

  ---------------- UX comment | desired resolution ------------------

  Please ensure that if a mobile devices rotates into landscape mode the
  indicator bar is hidden automatically. Indicators should be still
  available by swiping from the top edge.

  For visual/UX reference please refer to this spec:
