title: Learning how to set a flag on a view in Android
body: <p>I'm trying to use this flag <code>SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE</code> on a view. My problem goes deeper than that though. My real problem is that I'm really bad at navigating the documentation to find out how to actually implement this. I find myself in this predicament a lot. Can anyone tell me how to learn how to set a flag, but by using the documentation and not looking for someone to post some sample code for me to "steal"? Let's say all I had was eclipse and all of the downloaded android documentation, and I didn't know how to set this, how could I learn? This is more of a "learning to program" type of question, but a genuine question nonetheless and I hope someone can help me out.</p>
  
  <p>The best I can comeup with from reading the documentation:</p>
  
  <pre><code>setContentView(R.layout.start);
  setSystemUiVisibility(SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE):
  </code></pre>
