I’m working on an Android Activity which should not be full screen and thus uses Dialog theme. This can be achieved by adding
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog"
to the activity definition in Manifest file.
Visually that does what I expect. However, when the user interacts with the device in an area outside of this activity, the app in the background does not receive this input.
Is there a possibility to achieve this?
that is not possible with your solution as there is only one Activity possible to be active. You could try that with Fragments but I doubt that you could open your App and navigate the Homescreen / whatever in the meantime.
