Android 4.4 : SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY cannot be resolved or is not a field

android, android-4.4-kitkat, android-fullscreen

Solution

If this is a compile error, you need to set your build target (e.g., Project > Properties > Android in Eclipse) to API Level 19 or higher.

Problem

I would like to use `SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY` mode but i get this error : `SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY` cannot be resolved or is not a field I don't know where is the problem. Here is an extract of my code : ``` int uiOptions = getActivity().getWindow().getDecorView().getSystemUiVisibility(); int newUiOptions = uiOptions; boolean isImmersiveModeEnabled = ((uiOptions | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY) == uiOptions); // Navigation bar hiding: Backwards compatible to ICS. if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 14) { newUiOptions ^= View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION; } // Status bar hiding: Backwards compatible to Jellybean if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 16) { newUiOptions ^= View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN; } if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 18) { newUiOptions ^= View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY; } getActivity().getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(newUiOptions); ``` And in my manifest : ``` <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="13" android:targetSdkVersion="19" /> ```
