Wow thanks alot for this answer. I thought the second method wouldn't work in case you have both a status and softbutton bar at the same time, guess i was wrong, i've already tested this and it works. There's just one problem when the statusbar is the soft button bar, the first method returns 25 pixels and the softbuttons method return 48 pixels sony xperia tablet s — Joske Chris Banes talked about this in at the Droidcon New York.

On MDPI devices, the status bar is 25px. We can use this as the base and multiply it by the density rounded up to get the status bar height on any device:. According to Material Guidance ; height of status bar is 24 dp. The default height used to be 25dp. Update: Please be aware that since the age of notches and punch-whole-cameras began, using a static height for the status bar no longer works. Please use window insets instead! Official height is 24dp , as is stated officially by Google on Android Design webpage.

I have the same problem of having to get the status bar height in an onCreate. This works for me. To solve this, I used a combination approach. This is necessary as on tablets the system bar already subtracts it's pixels when display.

So I first check if a system bar is present, and then Ben Claytons approach, which works fine on phones. Works with Notches, etc. This solution may look like a workaround, but it actually accounts for whether your app is fullscreen aka hiding the status bar or not:.

Personally I had to use this to correct absolute TouchEvent coordinates to account for the status bar as so:. The reason why the top answer does not work for some people is because you cannot get the dimensions of a view until it is ready to render.

Use an OnGlobalLayoutListener to get said dimensions when you actually can:. On Android 4. When you use this approach, it becomes your responsibility to ensure that critical parts of your app's UI for example, the built-in controls in a Maps application don't end up getting covered by system bars.

This could make your app unusable. In most cases you can handle this by adding the android:fitsSystemWindows attribute to your XML layout file, set to true.

This adjusts the padding of the parent ViewGroup to leave space for the system windows. This is sufficient for most applications. In some cases, however, you may need to modify the default padding to get the desired layout for your app. To directly manipulate how your content lays out relative to the system bars which occupy a space known as the window's "content insets" , override fitSystemWindows Rect insets.

The fitSystemWindows method is called by the view hierarchy when the content insets for a window have changed, to allow the window to adjust its content accordingly. By overriding this method you can handle the insets and hence your app's layout however you want. This issue recently became relevant for me because of the notch in my Pixel 3XL. I really liked android developer's solution , but I wanted to be able to get the status bar height at will, since it was specifically necessary for a full screen animation that I needed to play.

The function below enabled a reliable query:. You will of course want to make pass a weak reference of the activity to the static Helper class method parameter, but for the sake of brevity I refrained in this example. The blurBitmap and errorHudFrameLayout are omitted for the same reason, since they don't directly pertain to obtaining the height of the status bar.

If you do a cross fade then you wont need to know the height of status bar.

I do need it because some elements are centered in the layout, and I would to have them fade into each other. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Improve this answer. Community Bot 1 1 1 silver badge.
