Thanks to @Niklas +1 this is the correct way to do it.
public class MyActivity extends Activity implements android.support.v4.View.OnApplyWindowInsetsListener {
Rect windowInsets;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.my_activity);
View rootview = findViewById(android.R.id.content);
android.support.v4.View.ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(rootview, this);
}
android.support.v4.View.WindowInsetsCompat android.support.v4.View.OnApplyWindowInsetsListener.OnApplyWindowInsets(View v, android.support.v4.View.WindowInsetsCompat insets)
{
windowInsets = new Rect();
windowInsets.set(insets.getSystemWindowInsetLeft(), insets.getSystemWindowInsetTop(), insets.getSystemWindowInsetRight(), insets.getSystemWindowInsetBottom());
//StatusBarHeight = insets.getSystemWindowInsetTop();
//Refresh/Adjust view accordingly
return insets;
}
}
Please excuse me if the code isn't 100% correct, converted it from Xamarin C# but this is the just of it. Works with Notches, etc.
