Help Set screen height to below camera setting removed in update?

Sorry for the late reply thought this site would auto update. Yes I was able to do this before the update.

I will try to look for some 3rd party camera apps but I think you might be misunderstanding me. What I meant was my screen size for my phone itself, not for the pictures my camera takes. The A40 is a phone which has one of those curved screens which goes to the very edges of the screen, which means it also invades the front facing cameras' space, the invasive space the camera takes up looks jarring to me.

These images should help explain exactly what I mean. The left image is what my screen looks like at the moment (meant to show the phone border plus camera at the top, everything in white is my screen space). But I want to hide the portion of screen in red like the right image shows. This used to be a feature in the past but I'm not sure if they removed it or if its just hidden, even then I'd love to know if there is any way at all to do this.

Action Director 2.0 How to more reliably frame videos

Action director was clearly specifically set up to work with Gear 360. However, I now have two different VR camera, one of which is a different brand. And the snag I've run into is that it technically has a 4K mode, but its 4K resolution is different and slightly higher than Gear 360's.

Now they are both 2:1 even though the numbers are different, so there is no "distortion" because of the difference. But it would be nice if I wasn't locked into specific resolutions..or it at least had a "keep the existing resolution" option. But instead, when you go to produce, it gives you a list of set resolutions and never lets you set it to anything different.

While there is no distortion...in watching raw video from the other camera, versus produced video, there is actually a pretty clear lost of resolution..and its also clear that video is more compressed. Which is kind of disappointing.

Full screen background behind ProgressBar & maintain aspect ratio

Newbie question, I'm trying to work out how to have a full screen background behind ProgressBar, and need background image to keep its aspect ratio. As I understand it it might not be possible to maintain aspect ratio with background image?

in activity_main.xml I have

Code:
        <ProgressBar
            android:id="@+id/progressBar1"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:background="@mipmap/splash"
            android:indeterminate="false"
            android:padding="120dp"
            android:textAlignment="center" />

in java/MainActivity show progressbar:

Code:
if (isNetworkStatusAvialable(getApplicationContext())) {
    mWebView.setWebViewClient(new com.myapp.webview.MyAppWebViewClient() {

        @Override
        public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
            findViewById(R.id.progressBar1).setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        }

then hide when ready:

Code:
                @Override
                public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
                    //hide loading image
                    findViewById(R.id.progressBar1).setVisibility(View.GONE);
                    //show url in webview
                    findViewById(R.id.web_view).setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
//Close loading
                    mySwipeRefreshLayout.setRefreshing(false);
                }
            });

It does the job except background image is just stretched to fit and doesn't always look great as it loses its aspect ratio.

Copyright issue

If the terms of the license to which you agreed when choosing to incorporate someone else's work into your own stipulate that attribution be made on the app description page, that's where you have to make the attribution. If you're not willing to do that then you'll need to find different assets with different licensing terms.

On the Github library question, again you're bound by the developer's chosen licensing terms. You can read the full text of the Apache License 2.0 here:
https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html

This page provides an overview:
https://choosealicense.com/licenses/apache-2.0/

Basically you're free to use the code but must include the existing license and copyright notice, as well as clearly specify if you've changed any of the contents of the licensed work.

Many apps I use have a 'Third Party Licenses' section in the app's Settings or About screen where they provide the necessary documentation for anything they didn't create themselves. (But again, if flaticons requires attribution to be made 'on the description page on the app store' then you'll have to do that as well.)

Thank you so much bro I am pretty much clear now
