On most other mobile platforms the application will be deactivated, then suspended, then killed. On Sailfish OS, because it is a true multitasking environment, the application stays fully alive. What we're trying to do is to release as much of the application as possible behind the application's back. The only affected case is when the QML application relies on OpenGL resources being retained between hide and show. cheers, Gunnar www.sletta.org _______________________________________________ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list To unsubscribe, please send a mail to devel-unsubscr...@lists.sailfishos.org
