Hello,
I would like to know if there is a way to prevent the app screen from extending into the notch / front camera area of the mobile phone.
Is there a setting or property in MIT App Inventor that allows me to control whether the app uses the notch area or stays below it?
I have already tried the Sizing options:
Could someone please explain if this can be controlled from within MIT App Inventor, and if so, how?
Thank you.

To prevent this in landscape mode, set AlignHorizontal to "right," insert a vertical arrangement, set its width to 95%, and place your content inside it.
