Make Motorola bottom gesture navigation bar transparent in dark mode

Open ghost opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

I have noticed that bottom bar on Motorola Android phone is not transparent in dark mode and instead it uses color. That bottom navigation should be transparent I think and programs like Google Messages, Google Play, Viber and other apps are setting the bar transparent.

Here is one screenshot of that issue in the app, spot the bottom bar:

I have tested this on Android 10. Is there a chance to consider changing this please? This might affect other navigation systems as well, which should depend on the launcher.

Version Information

App Version: 0.2.20
Android Version: Android 10

For now, I just wanted to add enough information that we might understand a bit more.

I think I was able to reproduce the issue by selecting "Gesture navigation" according to Get around on your Android phone - Android Help.

The following link leads to quite a bit of information, directly and indirectly: Ensure compatibility with gesture navigation | Android Developers.

At least understanding this issue somewhat, leads to terms to search internet with, for example, "flutter edge-to-edge".

@bradyt sounds about right. If it means, there is another implementation and that is to keep the bottom bar black at all times. It might not be the best approach however Jelly Browser from LineageOS aftermarket Android distribution does it and it is okay. It might be different on smaller screens but loosing a couple of pixels on 6" at the bottom and coloring them to black, to make it look like it is part of the phone bezels, is fine.
