Text obscures android software buttons

[lewri]

When bottom navigation bar is disabled in the app, text from a thread or board underlaps/obscures with android software emulated buttons at the bottom of the page (back, home, recents). It behaves again properly when inside settings, bookmarks tab, viewing an image or keyboard.

Do you have an STR because I can't reproduce it on my emulator. It might be something device-specific where it incorrectly provides the window insets. Or maybe there is a conflict with some other setting.

I'm not sure what an STR is I'm afraid.
I can say that in kuroba-dev the buttons behave as they should. I'm not sure if that helps.

Just to clarify, if I scroll to the bottom of the board it's fine. Images below for clarification.

Here's how Kuroba Dev loads, it has a permanent black bar for the software buttons

Here is kuroba ex at the bottom of the board. It behaves fine because of the bottom gap

Here is kuroba ex mid board list

Oh wait you mean that it displays text under the navigation bar when in the middle of a catalog/thread.
Then it's supposed to be like that.

I see, I didn't realise that was a setting available in Android. How times have moved on.

Is it also meant to do it in the settings menu?

[K1rakishou]

It's not a setting. It's a way for developers to make screens be displayed behind status/navigation bars. I don't think users can enable/disable it.
