Can I set FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS only for status bar?

Question

I need to make transparent status bar. I am using getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS) and it is make status bar as I want. But it also affect navigation bar: it became transparent and getWindow().setNavigationBarColor(Color.BLACK) do nothing.

Is there way to make transparent status bar only and not navigation bar?

Answer 1

this work for me

getWindow().setFlags(
    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS,
    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS
)

styles.xml

<style name="TranslucentStatusBar" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
</style>

v21\styles.xml

<style name="TranslucentStatusBar" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="android:windowDrawsSystemBarBackgrounds">false</item>
    <item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
</style>

status bar will be transparent or translucent, navigation bar won't

hope this helps!
