Qt on Android notch / cutout support

bunjee207

I'm using the following to get rid of the notch / cutout on Qt 5.14.2:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <style name="theme" parent="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.NoActionBar">
        <item name="android:statusBarColor">#323232</item>
        <!-- NOTE: The following is required to avoid the notch in full screen. -->
        <item name="android:windowLayoutInDisplayCutoutMode">shortEdges</item>
    </style>
</resources>

It's working fine when I'm in full screen and I get edge to edge display. Unfortunately when I'm not in full screen I get an ugly white bar on the left like so:

Is there a way to paint on that surface, or at least have it black ?

I know that have been a long time, but I found this article that address this: https://medium.com/hackernoon/how-you-survive-the-notch-hell-on-ios-android-9badd9d6b935

And that's not a bug, it's a feature: it's a kind of inset for layout

Just for future people like me that found your post.
