( In Android , my application is called 'Launcher' . In QT5 , I don't know .)@xyaw I don't understand the question. What do you mean by "default application"? Do you mean associate your application with some file type, so it is open when you double click on such a file?
What do you mean by "Desktop application" you want to hide? -

After booting , QT will show an application and it's title is called 'Desktop' .
Such as like below:
Desktop applicationI want to auto run my application after booting without showing the 'Desktop application'.
In Android , my application will be called as 'Launcher'. In QT , I don't know.I have added my application into the /etc/rc.local .And it auto run after booting. But the LCD will show the 'Desktop' and then show my application. I would like to hide(or disable ) the 'Desktop application' .

Hi @xyaw,
If I understand correctly, you're options would be:
- keep your window manager, but configure it to not be visible (at least to begin with), with only your app visible; how to do this (where possible) will depend on your window manager (are you using Gnome? KDE? etc); or
- replace your window manager with your app; this should be possible, but the implementation will depend on the distro (eg probably a lot easier under Arch, than say Ubuntu); or
- replace the whole OS with just you're app with minimal dependencies - for that, I'd start by looking at Boot to Qt.
Of course, I may be totally misunderstanding your question, but hopefully that helps a little.
Cheers.

If I would like to use the way 1(keep the window manager). Could you please share more detail?
(
I use the cmd as " ls /usr/bin/session "
Below is the information :
/usr/bin/ck-launch-session /usr/bin/matchbox-session
/usr/bin/ck-list-sessions /usr/bin/mini-x-session
/usr/bin/dbus-run-session /usr/bin/session-test
/usr/bin/lttng-sessiond /usr/bin/x-session-manager
)
