I make an Android application, following Google's material design guidelines. So, I've implemented the latest support libraries (my min Sdk value is 14)
Now, I face to a problem : I've made the status bar transparent, with custom ToolBar (defined in a XML file). Everything works well, except that FloatingActionButton (from https://github.com/makovkastar/FloatingActionButton) skips XML's defined layout margin. Idem, one of my app's UI uses TextView to login the user : once focused, they're hidden by the soft keyboard.
These two problems came after replacing the main style from "AppCompat.DarkActionBar" to "AppCompat.NoActionBar" (and with item "android:windowTranslucentStatus" set to "true").
I tried to use windowSoftInputMode in my manifest with "adjustPan|adjustResize", but nothing change. Adding "ScrollView" to the layout with "EditText" inside doesn't solve my problem neither.
My english is bad, and I know that pictures are better than words, so here is what I want to do and what's happening :

Any ideas ? Thanks for reading !
EDIT : I solved my problem with the FloatingButton, just need to add this line to the component's XML declaration :
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
The only problem now is the keyboard that hides EditText. Here is my code :

In my MainActivity, I have the DrawerLayout and some codelines not in relationship with the Toolbar / layout, except for :
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
...
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.tool_bar);
toolbar.setPadding(0, getStatusBarHeight(), 0, 0);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
// enabling action bar app icon and behaving it as toggle button
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
getSupportActionBar().setIcon(new ColorDrawable(getResources().getColor(android.R.color.transparent)));
...
}
// A method to find height of the status bar
// Source : an Stackoverflow's answer
public int getStatusBarHeight() {
int result = 0;
int resourceId = getResources().getIdentifier("status_bar_height", "dimen", "android");
if (resourceId > 0) {
result = getResources().getDimensionPixelSize(resourceId);
}
return result;
}
