Hide status bar on splashscreen

[Jeelig]

Hi,
I'm using appbuilder to build iOS apps. Actually, I have on issue.
In my app, I want the status bar to have a specific color. In the deviceready event, I added this :
    StatusBar.backgroundColorByHexString("#00A084");
It works perfectly. Except that when the app is launching, on top of the splashcreen you can see that the status bar is still black, which is quite normal since the "deviceready" event hasn't been catched yet.
What concerns me the most is that, in the properties of the project, for iOS, I choosed statusbar style "hidden".
I tried all the options of status style and in the splashscreen, the status bar is still black!

Do you have any idea how to have the splashscreen covering the status bar? Or not having a black status bar on splashscreen?

Thank you

Hello,

The option in the Properties of the project works only for iOS 6.1 and earlier. To change this for newer iOS versions, you have to specify this in the info.plist file. To get access to the info.plist file in Telerik AppBuilder right click on your project -> Edit Configuration -> info.plist. Open the file and add this key at the bottom after all other keys:

<key>UIStatusBarHidden</key>
<true/>

Try this out and let me know the results.

Still the same black status bar when on splashscreen.
Thanks anyway, but that's not the solution

Hello,

This solution works for me. Can you please open a support ticket and send a sample app or your app, so that I can investigate this and provide a solution.

I am looking forward to your reply.
