I'm using SafeAreaView
from React Native 0.50.1 and it's working pretty good except for the one part. I assigned the orange background color to the SafrAreaView but can't figure out to change the bottom unsafe area background to black.
Here is the code and I included expected the result and actual result. What is the best way to make the bottom part of the screen black instead of orange?
import {
...
SafeAreaView
} from 'react-native';
class Main extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<SafeAreaView style={styles.safeArea}>
<App />
</SafeAreaView>
)
}
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
...,
safeArea: {
flex: 1,
backgroundColor: '#FF5236'
}
})
I want to have orange top and black bottom.
But below is what I get now.
I was able to solve this using a version of Yoshiki's and Zach Schneider's answers. Notice how you set the top SafeAreaView's flex:0
so it doesn't expand.
render() {
return (
<Fragment>
<SafeAreaView style={{ flex:0, backgroundColor: 'red' }} />
<SafeAreaView style={{ flex:1, backgroundColor: 'gray' }}>
<View style={{ flex: 1, backgroundColor: 'white' }} />
</SafeAreaView>
</Fragment>
);
}
