  1. Check a generated application on mobile phone. There is a application title. We should add this to our simulator.
  2. Is it possible to add a status bar like on the phone? Check this image: http://briefmobile.com/images/articles/2012/07/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Android-4.1-Jelly-Bean-Screenshot-011.png
    What I mean is the top bar with digital time. We can cut and display from this image, however the time needs to be system time. This would give a real "phone" simulator feel. What do you think?

Is this really needed, for me it feels like unnecessary cluttering of simulator "display". Do we really want "real phone" simulator feel? I believe that simulator is just for rougly previewing of how the final application's logic basically looks like, not comprehensive or "real" feel.

What you mean by "status bar". You mean those three buttons? Remember, that anything stylled via CSS (those buttons would have to be stylled) might be potential source of bugs.

If there is real need of implementing title bar or status bar, then I say "why not". But i doubt this can be implemented until 18.5. :)

Well, we should surely implement the application title as in the mobile application. This isn't very difficult imo.

Regarding status bar, having it is good so we should consider it. I would however not implement via stylesheet, but in a smart (i.e. easy way). For example, having it as a part of the phone image, so that it would automatically appear on the top of the screen in simulator. If you understand what I mean. (Basically, just cut the status bar - the bar with the time - and add it to the phone image). What say?

I guess that could be a way to go.

Hello, I will review the code afternoon. After a brief check, it does not look bad.

The pictures look nice.
