Android Question B4XDrawer - Title partially under the Statusbar

[DonManfred]

I am using this Example.

[B4X] B4XDrawer - sliding drawer

Edit: Cross platform example based on B4XPages https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xpages-b4xdrawer.120246/ A class that implements a sliding menu. Unlike the nice jfeinstein SlidingMenu library the drawer covers the activity instead of pushing it. It is similar to the various...

The Titlebar is partially under the statusbar at the top.


Edit to add: The Statusbar on the S10 seems higher than on other Devices (as the front camera is positioned there too )

It looks like it happens to all apps using AppCompat on my Device (Samsung S10).
Is there something i need to adapt?

What happens with this example: [B4X] B4XPages + B4XDrawer ?

I wonder whether setting the supported aspect ratio makes a difference: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...n-new-android-flagship-devices.77980/#content ?

There is no colored statusbar but the Page is shown as expected. Means the page(s) are correctly after the statusbar.


There is no AppCompat used here btw which was not what i wanted. I want implement a AppCompat Design.

I know. Truth is that there is less and less reasons to use AppCompat. AppCompat was very important when Android 4 was popular and it brought the material theme features to Android 4. Now you can just discard the old Android 4 devices.

I understand.

Can i use a colored Statusbar without using AppCompat?

You can try from manifest:

CreateResource(values, theme.xml,
<resources>
    <style name="PTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.NoActionBar">
    </style>  
</resources>)

CreateResource(values-v21, theme.xml,
<resources>
  <style name="PTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Material.Light">
        <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
        <item name="android:windowActionBar">false</item>
        <item name="android:textColor">#000000</item> <!-- menu text,, msgbox title -->
        <item name="android:textColorSecondary">#AAAAAA</item> <!-- inactive editText line,, scrollbar -->
        <item name="android:colorPrimary">#B72E2D</item> <!-- action bar -->
        <item name="android:colorPrimaryDark">#CA343A</item> <!-- status bar -->
        <item name="android:colorAccent">#AC3433</item> <!-- checkboxes,, switches,, etc. -->
        <item name="android:colorControlNormal">#BBBBBB</item> <!-- inactive checkboxes -->
        <item name="android:navigationBarColor">#FFFFFF</item> <!-- system buttons navigation bar -->    
    </style>
</resources>)

<item name="android:colorPrimaryDark">#CA343A</item> <!-- status bar -->

You can try from manifest

Thank you; i guess that should fit my needs even without AppCompat.

You can remove the holo style and set the minimumSdkVersion to 21. You will not lose anything.
