Hi guys,
I just made a sample text box to show what happens when i press on it on a samsung s8. I understand that its aspect ratio is unusually different, however it seems this is the only device that it occurs on (both ios and android); just wondering if theres a way to keep the object static in this case?
Cheers,
Boris

You might need to enable the s8 tall mode. See this post:

Hi Rob,
forgot that this thread existed lol. i came across with a solution and that is to include display.setStatusBar(display.LightTransparentStatusBar) before any objects are loaded. it works most of the time (sometimes the objects ignore the status bar at the top). the objects being pushed upwards ( some into the status bar ) can also be seen in other apps including Facebook Messenger on the S8 so im not sure if this is a definitive solution.
cheers
