Finally some thoughts...Minimizing the application with screen.minimize() didn't work for me, I had to resort to using dbus 'exit-app-view' PageStackWindow crashes on device with Code: X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8 Major opcode: 42 (X_SetInputFocus) Resource id: 0x6200002 We need all the icons in the status area, maybe using the pixmap from gtk as freemangordon suggested is the way to go. Other ideas? Or is it possible to use the system status bar and have qt menus bound into qml or some other such contraption? I know qml is supposed to be fullscreen and implement everything from scratch, but getting the icons might be harder than this. Maybe the Status Bar could be exposed so that it can be used in more creative ways. In my implementation I copied the code and modified it so that it can be used standalone, outside a pageStack, you may want to have a look at it
