Overlay Of Type "type_accessibility_overlay" Hides Navigation Buttons

I'm adding a view to windows manager using these layout parameters: WindowManager.LayoutParams params = new WindowManager.LayoutParams( WindowManager.LayoutParams.MATCH

Solution 1:

Did you try switching from PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT to PixelFormat.TRANSPARENT? Also:

.apply {
        gravity = Gravity.BOTTOM //CENTER or whatever
        x = 0
        y = 0
        screenOrientation = ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT
    }
