I would like to be able to use the areas that are occupied by the iOS in my app, using javaFX and Gluon. How can this be done?
That means any javaFX controllers functions as expected. Now they are almost impossible for a user to focus. When I have another controller in the middle area of the screen that one works like normal.
On iPhone 6 you can press the top most area and drag down to get access to a menu. The same exact thing with the bottom-most area by pressing then dragging upwards. And I believe that OS related functionality to be the reason.
The touch event probably do not reach the app properly over these areas. I am seeking to be able to have controllers placed here and have them work just as they are in other places.
This was done by adding a VBox layout, with TextField and TextArea to Gluon Layer - and then adding it to Layers of a class extending Gluon View (Called "BasicView").
