Android Question Why I get this behavior (B4XPages + Interstitial Ad)?

[asales]

I has this issue in Interstitial + activities too.

You can see in the imagesand the animation below, that if when I show the interstitial ad, the background screen is moved up (showing a blank space in the bottom).

Is more visible when I use an animation to show the interstitial, but it happens without animation too.

Why this occours and if is possibile to fix it?

I tested it and the ad activity appeared without any transition and showed properly.
The project is a non-B4XPages project, but it shouldn't matter.

Are you testing it on a real device?

Is more difficult to saw without the transition animation (because the ad is show suddelly), but it happens.

You can see the behavior in both projects (B4XPages and non-B4XPages):

Check this other excellent example from @Jack Cole. To help the new members to make money with B4A, I tried to compile all the relevant Admob code (except mediation) of the forum in this example and put comments and links. This is a work in progress. Any code and sample to improve this example...

Are you testing it on a real device?

Yes. In a real device.

1. Test it again without the animation.
2. Set the theme:

CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.DarkTheme)

This is what I get with a simple test:

Test it again without the animation.

Is more difficult to see without the transition animation.

Using the animation transition is more smoothly and less agressive to show the interstitial ad. It not show suddenly.

I think is related to the statusbar, that disappears when I show the interstitial.

In Android 10 I don't saw this behavior (even with the transition animation), but is more visible in Android 7 and 9, that was the devices in I tried.
