Change background color of Android Cordova app
Hello,
how can I change background color, which is visible during orientation
change until WebView is correctly resized. I specified it more at http://
stackoverflow.com/questions/24601226/change-background-color-of-app-visible-
during-resizing-webview-due-to-device-ori
But, it look stackoverflowers don't know solution to this problem, so I post
it here. :-)
I hope, someone have had different problem ;-)

Delay the loading of the URL without a screenshot? Also, you could run
the manual test application in test that's marked "Test Background
Color". This isn't automated because it would require the inclusion
of a third party library like Robotium, and there's no way to
programmatically test the colour blue that's worth writing.
(Seriously, it'd be yet another library that'd take the screenshot
within the 2 second delay, and then process the image to see if the
pixels are blue, a non-trivial amount of work for something that
someone can do when they need to.)

I did it to test whether the backgroundColor preference was working. Do you
know another way to test that preference?

So, this is only an issue if you set the html tag opacity to 0? Why
would anyone do this?

Try setting opacity:0 on the <html> tag and you can reproduce white showing
instead of your backgroundColor.

The WebView element isn't supposed to have the backgroundColor, it's
the view behind the WebView that's supposed to have the
backgroundColor.
Also, I haven't seen this behaviour on any of the tests that we done.
Unless we can reproduce the issue, we can't fix it, and shouldn't just
throw things over the wall.

I was actually looking at this recently and found that the backgroundColor
preference is not being applied to the actual WebView element. Didn't want
to change it because I was changing other things at the time, but likely
this is just a bug that we should fix.

I suppose this could be done by backgroundColor preference (config.xml)
<preference name="backgroundColor" value="0xFFF" />
Thx!

Hello,
how can I change background color, which is visible during orientation change until WebView is correctly resized. I specified it more at http://

during-resizing-webview-due-to-device-ori
But, it look stackoverflowers don't know solution to this problem, so I post it here. :-)
