Correct android settings

[osliver]

So which android:windowSoftInputMode needs to be setted up?
adjustPan, adjustNothing or remove this line at all?

Hi @osliver , as stated in documentation, you have to set adjustNothing value for android activity. You can do it in 2 ways:

• programmatically using setAdjustNothing (I prefer this one)
• setting it manually in Android manifest file

Example for 1st solution:

const Component = () => {
  // if you use react-navigation and you want to enable it only in current displayed screen
  const onFocusEffect = useCallback(() => {
    AvoidSoftInput.setAdjustNothing(); // <------------------- this will do the trick
    AvoidSoftInput.setEnabled(true);
    return () => {
      AvoidSoftInput.setEnabled(false);
      AvoidSoftInput.setDefaultAppSoftInputMode(); // <------ this will reset, so other screens won't be affected
    };
  }, []);

  useFocusEffect(onFocusEffect); // <------- run it when screen is focused/unfocused

  // ... rest of component
}

Example for 2nd solution:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  package="<your-package-name>">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

    <application
      android:name=".MainApplication"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
      android:allowBackup="false"
      android:theme="@style/BootTheme">
      <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|uiMode"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing" // <--------------------------------------- set value here
        android:launchMode="singleTask"
        android:exported="true">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
      </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>
