I create overlay:
mWindowManager = (WindowManager) mContext.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
/*The parent view (actually the root view) the will be added in front of all the windows on the screen*/
mOverlayView = (RelativeLayout) inflater.inflate(R.layout.overlay_control, null);
mWindowManager.getDefaultDisplay().getSize(size);
mWindowSize = new Size(size.x, size.y);
WindowManager.LayoutParams params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams(
WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.TYPE_PHONE,
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE |
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_WATCH_OUTSIDE_TOUCH |
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS |
WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);
params.gravity = Gravity.TOP | Gravity.LEFT;
mWindowManager.addView(mOverlayView, params);
I need to move overlay if system UI Visibility changed. There is possibility to detect it(documentation) for view but it not works for overlay. So I only need callback to detect if mode of device changed.
I found the way to do it:
In Android there is OnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener
but it not works if there is not view which will has match_parent
value of width or hight.
So I created such overlay and made it 1 px height and match_parent
width and add OnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener
to it.
