Description

When creating a modal window, with width and height specified, a full screen window is produced. This use case demonstrates the problem:

var winView1 = Ti.UI.createWindow({
    backgroundColor:'#b1b1bd',
//  borderRadius:5,
    url:"view1.js",
    modal: true,
//  modal:false,
    title: "View1",
    width: 280,
    height: 300
});
winView1.open();</code>

var win = Ti.UI.currentWindow;
var viewView1 = Ti.UI.createView({
    backgroundColor: '#ffb1bd',
    borderRadius:10,
    top:10,
    width:280,
    height:280
});
win.add(viewView1);

Furthermore, if borderRadius is used, an exception is produced. I'll raise that in another ticket, but the code above also demonstrates this if the createWindow borderRadius property is uncommented above.

Hi,

I have found a workaround to this bug. It still needs to be fixed though.

Basically you have to specify the window's windowSoftInputMode property to any of the Ti.UI.Andorid.SOFT_INPUT_XXX operating modes. Doing so will force the window into a heavyweight window. This will bring your newly created window below the status bar instead of behind it.

Example:

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
```
   exitOnClose: false,
   url:'main/details.js',
   backgroundImage:'../images/Background.png',
   width: stageWidth,
   height: 'auto',
   windowSoftInputMode: Ti.UI.Android.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE,
   
```
});

This is a blocker according to the severity definitions, as there is no workaround - ie there is no way to achieve a modal (fullscreen, navbarhidden etc) or blurred modal effect for a window with dimensions defined. Note: This is another of my tickets where Ralf marked himself as the reporter. Hence, restoring myself as reporter.
