Bug? IME broken at targetSDKVersion 35 and 36

I use IME in a non-B4XPages B4a app.

I currently have the targetSdkVersion set to 36 in this app.

IME is no longer working.

After a lot of mucking around I dug up the old non-B4XPages IME example and tested it.

If I go into its Manifest and set targetSdkVersion to 34 the example works fine.

If I use 35 or 36 it fails - the IME_HeightChanged event is not triggered.

This is a major problem for me.

I attach the old non-B4XPages IME example.

No bug here.

1. targetSdkVersion should be 35.

2. You are missing the theme settings. The manifest editor code should be:
B4X: 
AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="21" android:targetSdkVersion="35"/>
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true" 
    android:normalScreens="true" 
    android:smallScreens="true" 
    android:anyDensity="true"/>)
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.LightTheme)
'End of default text.
SetActivityAttribute(main, android:windowSoftInputMode, adjustResize|stateHidden)

Erel, thanks for that, adding:

CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.LightTheme)

to my Manifest solved the problem - but raises a couple of questions:

1. was this documented anywhere?
2. why is a theme necessary to get it to work?
3. would it work with themes other than LightTheme?

Thanks again...
