On at least iOS 26 using a temporary window frame is unreliable. This
change tries to use an existing window for any non-standalone app. It
also updates the details on any changes, such as when the device
orientation changes.
This bug could be observed in the DemoRunner:
- Enable "button" navigation mode (as opposed to "gesture" mode) on the
Android device.
- Remove the line enabling kiosk mode, build and install the DemoRunner.
- Run the app and navigate to the Settings pane. Open a menu, or the
bluetooth MIDI dialog window, then close the popup window.
- Rotate the device.
Previously, the steps above could result in the system painting its own
backgrounds behind the system bars. With this patch in place, we reset
the requested system UI colours and transparency, which seems to
maintain the desired appearance.
ComponentPeer::setAppStyle() will now update the status and navigation
bar foreground colours, with some caveats:
- Status and nav bar backgrounds are now always completely transparent.
- The navigation bar foreground colour can only be changed on Android
API 26 or higher.
- For platforms using gesture controls instead of button controls, the
system automatically determines the colour of the gesture bar. On
those systems, setAppStyle() will only affect the status bar colour.
The goal of this change is to ensure that the safeAreaInsets and
keyboardInsets members of Display correctly take the current system UI
and screen cutouts into account.
This change also enables rendering behind the status bar and navigation
bar for JUCE applications. This is in line with the new defaults in
Android 15, where building against the Android SDK 35 will automatically
enable "edge-to-edge" drawing. Enabling this behaviour on older
platforms too provides a more consistent experience.
