Description Bastián Díaz 2013-09-21 07:30:29 UTC 
Description of problem:

Impress Remote currently not mute incoming calls or messages, however, the user can set Silent mode before starting a slide show.
Although mute incoming calls when a call is received, it occupies the first plane and you can follow the "slideshow" until the call is stopped by the user (which disrupts exposure similarly as if the phone rang).

The idea is that incoming calls or messages are received in the background without interrupting the use of the application and therefore, not disrupting the slideshow.

Version-Release number of selected component:
Impress Remote 1.0.6
Android 2.3.6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Perform a test slideshow with Impress Remote
2.Ask a friend that I made a call to the smart phone as a remote control handles

Actual results:
The incoming call is superimposed over Impress Remote

Expected results:
The incoming call is received as a notification, while you can still use Impress Remote

Additional info:
I use Impress since its launch, and on more than one occasion I have unfocused to cancel a call or answer accidentally (by use of gestures).

Thanks

I really do not know whether you fully understand your question, because the bug is related to the Android app.

Anyway, to answer your question the bug is still present using LO 4.1.3.2 (fedora 20 alpha) and Impress Remote 1.0.6.

Thanks

Confirmed.

Unfortunately this is not possible using public API as far as I know. The closest way to achieve this is enabling Airplane Mode on system level which will also disable communications with remote computer ironically.

Moving bug to (new) 'Impress Remote' product.
