Question

Air 23 SDK - status bar appears when showing soft keyboard

Our app is fullscreen, but when compiling the app with Air SDK v23, the status bar pops in when the soft keyboard opens. It stays onscreen after the soft keyboard is dismissed, until the user swipes it away. Is this intended behavior? Can it be disabled? (Edit: This is an Android 6 device)

Hey, we have the same issue and additionally there is another related problem: when running AIR 23 app on devices with software buttons, stage.fullscreenWidth and stage.fullscreenHeight parameters have wrong values, as if Android buttons panel would be visible. So if device screen is 1280x800 then stage.fullscreenWidth and stage.fullscreenHeight have values of 1280x736, which is not true.

    I'm seeing cases where the whole stage is being cropped to the smaller rectangle (that would be the visible area if the nav bar was there), even when the nav bar isn't there. The stage's background color shows up in the bottom area where the content isn't visible.

      Same here. Layout is broken with AIR 23.

      I've got this issue as well with Air 23. I've recompiled with Air 22 and it does not happen.

        Have the same issue when compiling on AIR22 or higher with the "Navigation Menu Bar" at the bottom (NOT the status bar at the top -> so the bar with the "triangle, circle and square"), see Apache Flex Users - Layout broken in AIR 23

        We are seeing this issue as well - so apparently they are two separate issues even though they happen in similar circumstances.

        I see this bug is now marked "NeedMoreInfo" - does this mean you guys are still waiting for feedback or assistance from us?

        Just asking again to see if this is actually a bug or if it's expected behavior - maybe there's something new we need to do because of Immersive mode to prevent this behavior, etc. If it's a bug I can file a bug report.

        (Edit)

        This post on stackoverflow describes the issue and might have some useful info

        This is still happening in the released version of Air SDK 23. Is this expected behavior, or is there some method I'm supposed to use to get rid of the status bar in fullscreen mode that I'm not aware of? This version of the SDK fixes a critical issue for us on Android, so we are very eager to release a build with it, but we can't because our UI goes to the top of the screen and doesn't work with the status bar there. Is this on any internal list of issues to address?

          Hi Peter,

          We tried reproducing the problem with a sample project using AIR_23.0.257 on Nexus 6P (Android 6.0) but we are unable to reproduce the issue at our end.

          If this issue is device specific at your end?

          It would be very helpful if you can share a sample project with us so that we can further look into the problem.

          Thanks,

          Adobe AIR Team
