When publishing an app for ios in Flash 5.5 so that the status bar is visible on the iphone, the app is getting scaled down to fit the leftover size of the screen instead of the status bar going over the app.

I want to use the translucent black status bar but can't seem to figure this out. Any help?

Is any one still working on this problem. I also am trying to get the status to be translucent and overlaying my app.

You can add this to yhe InfoAdditinos in the descriptor file:

<key>UIStatusBarStyle</key><string>UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent </string>

I haven't tested it, but it should work.

I've tried that and it still displayed the default grey status bar. Not sure if I put it in the right place or not (I'm mostly sure I did though, found how to do that in a tutorial book for deving iOS apps in flash I picked up yesterday.)

Still no love

First of all, love the mortal kombat reference.

That being said:

What i have found, and I am not 100% sure this the best possible way to this this, is that you have to cut off 20px from the height of the stage to accomdate the room needed for the status bar. I am currently creating an IOS app that had the same problem.

When you select full screen, using the default template stage size of 320x480 works because that is the full size of the screen. If you do not use full screen, your stage is really only 460px tall since the status bar is actually on the screen.

You can also set the stage scalemode to false but you will still lose 20px of your stage then. Imo, your best bet is to create the app as 320x460 if you want a status bar.

In regards to the black see through status bar... i don't current know how to do that but will get back to you if i figure it out.

Thanks for the reply. I've thought of that solution though its not ideal if you want to use the translucent black style status bar.

Apparently you can set the status bar type in the .xml file (though I've had no luck getting to change from the default grey one). Still looking for a solution to this, I'm shocked its not already a topic of conversation around here. Is everyone just making full screen only apps?
