Android Question IME_HeightChanged not firing with targetSdkVersion = 35

[giggetto71]

Hi,
with targetSdkVersion = 35 IME_HeightChanged event does NOT fire. I have

SetActivityAttribute(main, android:windowSoftInputMode, adjustResize|stateHidden)

in the manifest and even an example taken from an old case works if the targetSdk is 34 but it does NOT if the targetSDK = 35.
Any idea?

PS: EVERY targetSdk enformcement is a complete nightmare! che palle!

I've updated the IME example: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...-keyboard-with-the-ime-library.14832/#content

Seems to work fine.

when I run it does not build and I get:

aapt2.exe W 07-06 12:38:47 5948 2556 LoadedArsc.cpp:657] Unknown chunk type '200'.
res\values\theme.xml:6: error: style attribute 'android:attr/windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcement' not found.
error: failed linking references.

sorry working now...I did not download the sdk build tools. working now. thanks!

sorry to go back to this but I am getting crazy..this example works while my app does not if sdk is 35 (ie. in android 15 or 16 phones) it works just fine in 14 and below. I have used the same identical manifest for both (my app) and the IME example from @Erel and in both app I have the same, conceptually of course as my app is more complex, so in activity create I have

IME.Initialize("IME")
IME.AddHeightChangedEvent

the test i do is to place a test edittext under Activity or in any panel (I am not using pages as it's an old app) and trying to get the IME_HeightChanged event triggered by clicking in the edit text. in the ime example it works, in my app does not. I have tried to "mess" the ime app by setting crazy things like activity.height to a fixed value or force the panel.height to 100%y..but the IME app always works and mine does not..I dont' know what to try more on my app. please help

Did you also add the updated code to the Main Module?

[B4X] B4XPages - Cross platform and simple framework for managing multiple pages

B4XPages is a library that serves two purposes: 1. Make it simple to develop B4A apps by solving almost all of the challenges involved with Android complex activities life cycle. B4XPages makes B4A behave more similar to B4J and B4i where the new "B4XPage" element is a regular object that is...

no, becasue as I said it's not a pages based application. it's an old app with one activity and one background service.

I have an example for you. Try it out once. I have based the example on the classic example provided by Erel.

Please note that you must use the libraries from the AdditionalLibraries-Zip file in order to be able to receive an event from the IME keyboard in a full screen edge-to-edge. I am the author of this library, which implements code I adapted from Stackoverflow. Unfortunately, I cannot provide support for this library: It is what it is. But you are welcome to use it.

Also, pay attention to the entries in the manifest that allow you to set full screen edge-to-edge.

You will notice that the height of the notch and the height of the navigation bar must be taken into account in the layout. That's why I've added a function to the code that has already been published elsewhere in the forum.

This example was made possible by Erel, the members of the B4X forum and authors at Stackoverflow, for which I am very grateful.

Thomas
