title: Windows Phone 8.1 Silverlight hide Navigation Bar
body: <p>I had windows phone 8.0 project retargeted it 8.1, but there's not ApplicationView class, which I need. </p>
  
  <p>Basically I just need this:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Windows.UI.ViewManagement.ApplicationView.GetForCurrentView().SetDesiredBoundsMode(Windows.UI.ViewManagement.ApplicationViewBoundsMode.UseVisible);</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I'd like to use this too:   </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Windows.UI.ViewManagement.ApplicationView.GetForCurrentView().SuppressSystemOverlays = true;</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>to hide navigation bar when app starts. However it's not accessible from silverlight and it's also not default value (true). 
  And this case is even more amusing. As you will swipe to show navigation bar when it's hidden (tested on blank wp 8.1 app and many top games from store) there's no way to hide it anymore. </p>
