Hi!

BottomBarBackground has nothing to do with the keyboard.

I dont’t think I understand what you mean. Can you please describe what you want more carefully? Thanks!

When I put in my app:

```auto
<BottomBarBackground DockPanel.Dock="Bottom" />

```

When the Keyboard showup the UI of my app fits to dont get covered with the keyboard. I want to Put BottomBarBackground to my GUI start above the buttons of the Android interface only.

I want something like that:

This is currently not possible with BottomBarBackground because there is no reliable way to do this across all Android devices.

We hope to find a solution for this in the near future, so stay tuned.

Hi!

I’ve now added these features:

```auto
<BottomBackBacground IncludesKeyboard="false" />

```

This will give you what you need above.

In addition you get this trigger:

```auto
<KeyboardVisible>
    <Move RelativeTo="Keyboard" Y="1" Duration="1" Easing="CircularOut" />
</KeyboardVisible>

```

… which can be used to animate things in a cool way when the keyboard appears 🙂

Feature has been pushed now and should roll out in the next release. Unfortunately it did not make it into the one which just came out.
