Android Question Status bar with immersive mode is hidden, but can't draw over its location

[TelKel81]

Dim jo As JavaObject = Activity

jo.RunMethod("setSystemUiVisibility", Array As Object(5894)) '--> status bar area becomes 100% black, non-visible

jo = jo.RunMethod("getResources", Null)
Dim ResourceID As Int = jo.RunMethod("getIdentifier", Array As Object("status_bar_height", "dimen", "android"))
Dim StatusBarHeight As Int = jo.RunMethod("getDimensionPixelSize", Array As Object(ResourceID))

In this code, StatusBarHeight is > 0, and if I try to draw a "full screen rectangle" on Activity, it doesn't draw over what should be the hidden status bar. Therefore my screen is not 100% full screen.

I searched for hours but can't find a solution.

I don't understand. Do you want to keep the status bar?

The example: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/immersive-mode-hide-the-navigation-bar.90882/ draws over all of the screen.

No, I think he means that he manages to hide/not display the StatusBar but the pixels it should occupy remain unusable, ie 100%y is the same both with and without the StatusBar.

LucasMs : Exactly.

Does this work for you?

This screenshot is when I run ImmersiveMode.zip without any code changes.

Take note that the rectangle at the bottom is being offset by the status bar that measures 112 pixel.

This device has Notch Camera?

Yes, that is like a notch camera.
Take a look at this
Immersive with Notch
I had the same problem.
Unluckily I was unable to get the Status Bar as screen not even with this.
Sure it's my fault.
But at least I was able to detect the correct size and avoid to have the bottom cutted.

Sagenut, this works well for me.
Thanks a lot.
I wish I hadn't ignored this post during my researches !! Now I know what "notch" means
