Some progress to handle notches / cutouts of #linuxmobile phones better in #phosh : I have a small lib that gets panel cutout / notch information as #svg paths and can calculate a bounding box . #phoc can use it to render cutouts for debugging and #phosh can use it for layout (so far only to shift the panel down). (see follow up posts for more pictures).

phoc rendering cutouts in nexted mode to simulate cutouts and rounded edges:

2️⃣ /4️⃣

phosh using that information to push the top panel down because there's a (simulated) notch:
3️⃣ /4️⃣

Finally got to look at this again and instead of just pushing down #phosh's top panel we now place the clock to the left or right based on the available space. The logic is still pretty simple but it covers the cases where we have data for in #gmobile. Will try to land this in 0.29.0.

And this is how it looks on a device with notch. Also enabled PHOC_DEBUG=cutouts so phoc renders the bounding box of these.

@agx what happens if battery percentage and VPN, and location services are enabled? Is there enough space on the right side? Is there enough space so that nothing is hiden?

Also what happens if you are typing in landscape mode and the text reached the cutouts?

@joao @agx on android 13, it just overflows extra icons into the notch void. I've seen it even cut some icons in half if there's not enough room to display the whole icon. Not saying phosh should do that, but mighty google hasn't figured it out either :P
