Improvements in Insetter

[SteinerOk]

1. Very often with applying insets via doOnApplyWindowInsets using set content edge-to-edge. It would be nice to add a function like this:

inline fun View.setEdgeToEdgeContent() {
    if (ViewCompat.getFitsSystemWindows(this)) {
        systemUiVisibility =
                // Tells the system that you wish to be laid out
                // as if the navigation bar was hidden
            View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION or
                    // Optional, if we want you be laid out fullscreen,
                    // behind the status bar
                    View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN or
                    // Tells the system that you wish to be laid out at
                    // the most extreme scenario of any other flags
                    View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
    }
}

2. Also it would be nice make constructors in ViewState and ViewDimensions public to allow usage in customs options, like where need return consumed or modified insets.

3. And also it would be nice provide opportunities to return modified insets, like this usecase:

Thanks!

The first is now done and will be out in v0.2.0. We now have:
View.setEdgeToEdgeSystemUiFlags(...) in ktx, app:layout_edgeToEdge in dbx and a method on Insetter

I need to think more about the second and third option request. I've split this out into #23 for now.

Hi @chrisbanes. Thanks for insetter library. I've just tested your InsetterConstraintLayout and it's edge to edge functionality. Have a question about android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
after applying edge to edge functionality. Seems like it does't work because of View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN. Is there any way to make it work together?

[chrisbanes]

@ramanbranavitski this is a better question for StackOverflow, or a similar forum. It's not specific to Insetter.

Hm, it's strange that library function breaks another built in Android functionality. But anyway thanks for reply.

[chrisbanes]

Just because a library calls a framework API, doesn't mean it's responsible for any bugs or behavior changes in that underlying framework.

That's also true. Thanks one more time.
