Description

Everything was working perfectly till I tested on Android 15 - the only problem I faced was when I set fullscreen = 0 the app still enters full screen mode

What's the results after running buildozer android clean and then rerun the compiler?

@kuzeyron
I got the same results, I even tired reverting to a previous commit i tested and ran
buildozer android clean && buildozer android debug
it scale right on other devices and but not on mine. It was working perfectly before i updated my phone here is what the structure of my code looks like the header and the bottom nav doesn't show completely

And here's a copy of my buildozer.spec, sorry i forget the add this in the original question
buildozer.spec
Thanks in advance for taking a look—I really appreciate your help!

You could try setting p4a.branch = develop . And then just rm -rf .buildozer before you rerun the compiler.

Thank you will try this now and get back to you

@kuzeyron sorry for the late reply, it's a little better now I can see through the android buttons but it's still entering fullscreen
Here's a picture of what i see

[kuzeyron]

My guess is that this style is triggering something. So if you open up the file .../.buildozer/android/platform/python-for-android/pythonforandroid/bootstraps/sdl2/build/templates/AndroidManifest.tmpl.xml you should see on line 73, android:theme="@style/KivySupportCutout". If you delete that line and only run buildozer android clean and rerun the compiler, is it still behaving the same?

[Fector101]

@kuzeyron This time the phone buttons aren't transparent anymore and the app is still taking full screen

[kuzeyron]

Now that is how it should be

[Fector101]

Yeah, Please do you have any workarounds so it stops entering fullscreen

[kuzeyron]

What do you expect? Can you share what other devices are showing?
Fullscreen means it uses 100% of the available size and it also hides the bars. When it's not set the size is between the bars and both bars are visible.

[Fector101]

I expected when I set fullscreen=0 it won't enter fullscreen mode, This is what I wanted what it looks like on other android devices

[kuzeyron]

I now see a problem with your code:

 def build(self):
        root_screen = MDScreen()
        nav_layout = MDNavigationLayout()
        
        self.my_screen_manager = WindowManager()
        bottom_navigation_bar = BottomNavigationBar()
        nav_layout.add_widget(self.my_screen_manager)
        nav_layout.add_widget(bottom_navigation_bar)
        nav_layout.add_widget(MDBottomSheet(sheet_type="standard"))
        
        root_screen.add_widget(nav_layout)
        return root_screen

    You are returning MDScreen when it should be MDScreenManager.

[Fector101]

I thought so too, tired putting the main screen in a MDScreenManager widget and returning that but still same results, 😓 I'm using this structure because I need a feature from kivymd MDBottomSheet and it depends on it

[kuzeyron]

If you move everything to be inside of a ScrollView. Will that solve the sizing issue for you?
I assume MD is having fixed sizes and it doesn't fit on your device which encounter this problem.

Edit: By just lowering the font size should do the trick.
