Background overlapsing notification bar while using custom toolbar with AppBarLayout

0

I've created custom toolbar layout because I wanted to have a centered title on bar. The code looks like this:

main_activity.xml

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

android:id="@+id/container"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"

tools:context=".mainactivity.MainActivity">



<!-- Appbar -->



<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout

    android:id="@+id/appBarLayout"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    android:theme="@style/AppTheme"

    app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"

    app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"

    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">



    <!-- Toolbar -->



    <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar

        android:id="@+id/toolbar"

        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"

        android:background="@color/colorPrimary">



        <TextView

            android:id="@+id/toolbar_title"

            style="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title"

            android:layout_width="wrap_content"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"

            android:layout_gravity="center"

            android:text="@string/app_name"

            android:textColor="@android:color/white" />

    </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>



</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>

MainActivity.java

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);



    mToolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar);

    setSupportActionBar(mToolbar);

    getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);



    mTitle = mToolbar.findViewById(R.id.toolbar_title);

These gives me that:

But I want it to be like standard behavior:

I tried a lot of solution, like transparency styles for bar etc. Bo I cannot figure it out.

Could you help me?

Using ConstraintLayout is not a good idea in there since maybe you'll need to hide or give the layout some effects later.

Instead, use CoordinatorLayout as the root of the layout and remove ConstraintLayout with it's attributes:

<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:id="@+id/container"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="match_parent">



    <!-- Appbar -->



    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout

        android:id="@+id/appBarLayout"

        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">



        <!-- Toolbar -->



        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar

            android:id="@+id/toolbar"

            android:layout_width="match_parent"

            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"

            android:background="@color/colorPrimary">



            <TextView

                android:id="@+id/toolbar_title"

                style="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title"

                android:layout_width="wrap_content"

                android:layout_height="wrap_content"

                android:layout_gravity="center"

                android:text="@string/app_name"

                android:textColor="@android:color/white" />

        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">



        <!-- Toolbar -->



        <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar

            android:id="@+id/toolbar"

            android:layout_width="match_parent"

            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"

            android:background="@color/colorPrimary">



            <TextView

                android:id="@+id/toolbar_title"

                style="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title"

                android:layout_width="wrap_content"

                android:layout_height="wrap_content"

                android:layout_gravity="center"

                android:text="@string/app_name"

  Thank you. Sorry for so late answer, but I has something come around and I hadn't time to answer you. If in my main ConstraintLayout I also have an include view and BottomNavigationView, should I still be using CoordinatorLayout? 'Code': <CoordinatorLayout > <AppBarLayout> <Toolbar> <TextView/> </Toolbar> <AppBarLayout> <include /> <BottomNavigationView /> </CoordinatorLayout>

Using ConstraintLayout is not a good idea in there since maybe you'll need to hide or give the layout some effects later.

Instead, use CoordinatorLayout as the root of the layout and remove ConstraintLayout with it's attributes:

<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    android:id="@+id/container"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="match_parent">



    <!-- Appbar -->



    <android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout

        android:id="@+id/appBarLayout"

        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">



        <!-- Toolbar -->



        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar

            android:id="@+id/toolbar"

            android:layout_width="match_parent"

            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"

            android:background="@color/colorPrimary">



            <TextView

                android:id="@+id/toolbar_title"

                style="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title"

                android:layout_width="wrap_content"

                android:layout_height="wrap_content"

                android:layout_gravity="center"

                android:text="@string/app_name"

                android:textColor="@android:color/white" />

  Thank you. Sorry for so late answer, but I has something come around and I hadn't time to answer you. If in my main ConstraintLayout I also have an include view and BottomNavigationView, should I still be using CoordinatorLayout? 'Code': <CoordinatorLayout > <AppBarLayout> <Toolbar> <TextView/> </Toolbar> <AppBarLayout> <include /> <BottomNavigationView /> </CoordinatorLayout>
