42<p>This lesson describes how to register a listener so that your app can get notified
43of system UI visibility changes. This is useful if you want to
44synchronize other parts of your UI with the hiding/showing of system bars.</p>
45
46<h2 id="listener">Register a Listener</h2>
47
48<p>To get notified of system UI visibility changes, register an
49{@link android.view.View.OnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener} to your view.
50This is typically the view you are using to control the navigation visibility.</p>
51
52<p>For example, you could add this code to your activity's
53{@link android.app.Activity#onCreate onCreate()} method:</p>
54
55<pre>View decorView = getWindow().getDecorView();
56decorView.setOnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener
57        (new View.OnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener() {
58    &#64;Override
59    public void onSystemUiVisibilityChange(int visibility) {
60        // Note that system bars will only be "visible" if none of the
61        // LOW_PROFILE, HIDE_NAVIGATION, or FULLSCREEN flags are set.
62        if ((visibility & View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN) == 0) {
63            // TODO: The system bars are visible. Make any desired
64            // adjustments to your UI, such as showing the action bar or
65            // other navigational controls.
66        } else {
67            // TODO: The system bars are NOT visible. Make any desired
68            // adjustments to your UI, such as hiding the action bar or
69            // other navigational controls.
70        }
71    }
72});</pre>
73
74<p>It's generally good practice to keep your UI in sync with changes in system bar
75visibility. For example, you could use this listener to hide and show the action bar in
76concert with the status bar hiding and showing.</p>
