Android Question B4A v13.4 still forcing Edge-to-Edge

[Cliff McKibbin]

I have installed v13.4 with no problems but the Edge-to-Edge enforcement is still in effect.

I think it may be my legacy Manifest 'light theme' which you can see in the manifest code below:

'This code will be applied to the manifest file during compilation.
'You do not need to modify it in most cases.
'See this link for for more information: https://www.b4x.com/forum/showthread.php?p=78136
AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" android:targetSdkVersion="35"/>
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true" 
    android:normalScreens="true" 
    android:smallScreens="true" 
    android:anyDensity="true"/>)
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")

'')
AddApplicationText(

  </provider>
)
CreateResource(xml, provider_paths,
   <files-path name="name" path="shared" />
)

I tried taking our the legacy portion and replacing it with the more simple:
CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Themes.LightTheme) suggested in one of the forum posts.
That entry commented out above.

This resulted in a compile error as shown:

Apparently, my legacy color names are not recognized by the new macro for lighttheme.

I could go through each of my apps and add the dummy panels at the top and bottom of each 'page', but wondered if there was a simple fix to this.

Thanks, Cliff McKibbin

Add this line after line 47 in the snippet above:

<item name="android:windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcement">true</item>

 

[Cliff McKibbin]

That worked. I think I had seen that 'line' and tried but put it in the wrong spot and it didn't compile.
Thanks, as always Erel.
