ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener() changes background of system navigation bar

Question

App normally has this navigation bar:

But when I add ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener()

ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(window.decorView) { _, insets ->
    binding.showingKeyboard = insets.isVisible(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.ime())
    WindowInsetsCompat.CONSUMED
}

or

ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(window.decorView) { _, insets ->
    binding.showingKeyboard = insets.isVisible(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.ime())
    insets
}

it becomes like this

Why does it happen? I don't want this method to change anything. I just want to use it to detect if the virtual keyboard is visible or not (there are no other good methods to do it)

Just return ViewCompat.onApplyWindowInsets(v, insets) instead of insets >> don't forget to set the 1st parameter to v – Serafinaserafine

Answer 1

Call setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener on root view of your layout, not on window.decorView
