[android-developers] Re: Find location of status bar.

That is not the case. If I draw my view the status bar can sometimes obscure it if I dont' set the right height. 

Furthermore, there are some tablets where the status bar is at the top, and some tablets where it isn't. So I need to find a way not only to get the height of the status bar, but a way to determine where on the screen it is as well.

I don't understand why you need to offset your view.  Doesn't your view automatically fill the available space and not overlap any other view/widget?

If it does please could you explain in more detail what you have done.

Greetings, 

I'm using DecorView to insert my own sliding menu (like Facebook, Spotify, etc) but I'm wondering if its possible to tell where the status bar is, as I need to offset my view appropriately. For example, on tablets the status bar is usually  at the bottom, except on the Nexus 7 where it's at the top. Rather than writing device-specific code, I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me a general method by which I can tell if the status bar is at the top or bottom of the window.
