Location button too close to Android app controls #389

@vsplesk

Description

@vsplesk

Precondition:

  • use a recent Android, like LineageOS 22
  • configure the app switching controls to use the "classic" touch buttons (not gestures)

Repro:

  • attempt to push the "current location" button in the right bottom corner

Observed behavior:

  • if hit on the very right, it works
  • if hit somewhere in the middle, NO ACTION happens. It seems like Android blocks touch responses from this area in case where both (app and system) declare a sensitive area there, i.e. preventing a conflict
  • if hit on the right part, sometimes the system action (app switching) is enabled, which is not what you want

Expected behavior / solution??

  • EVMap might try to detect whether the classic touch buttons are enabled in the system. If found, move the position of the GNSS icon a bit, the offset might be roughly half of the buttons height.
