Constants

DARK_STRATEGY_PREFER_WEB_THEME_OVER_USER_AGENT_DARKENING

static val DARK_STRATEGY_PREFER_WEB_THEME_OVER_USER_AGENT_DARKENING: Int

In this mode WebView content will be darkened by a user agent unless web page supports dark theme. WebView determines whether web pages supports dark theme by the presence of color-scheme metadata containing "dark" value. For example, <meta name="color-scheme" content="dark light">". If the metadata is not presented WebView content will be darkened by a user agent and prefers-color-scheme media query will evaluate to light.

See specification for more information.

Value: WebSettingsBoundaryInterface.ForceDarkBehavior.PREFER_MEDIA_QUERY_OVER_FORCE_DARK

DARK_STRATEGY_USER_AGENT_DARKENING_ONLY

static val DARK_STRATEGY_USER_AGENT_DARKENING_ONLY: Int

In this mode WebView content will be darkened by a user agent and it will ignore the web page's dark theme if it exists. To avoid mixing two different darkening strategies, the prefers-color-scheme media query will evaluate to light.

See specification for more information.

Value: WebSettingsBoundaryInterface.ForceDarkBehavior.FORCE_DARK_ONLY

See Also

• #setForceDarkStrategy

DARK_STRATEGY_WEB_THEME_DARKENING_ONLY

static val DARK_STRATEGY_WEB_THEME_DARKENING_ONLY: Int

In this mode WebView content will always be darkened using dark theme provided by web page. If web page does not provide dark theme support WebView content will be rendered with a default theme.

See specification for more information.

Value: WebSettingsBoundaryInterface.ForceDarkBehavior.MEDIA_QUERY_ONLY

See Also

• #setForceDarkStrategy

FORCE_DARK_AUTO

static val FORCE_DARK_AUTO: Int

Enable force dark dependent on the state of the WebView parent view. If the WebView parent view is being automatically force darkened (@see android.view.View#setForceDarkAllowed), then WebView content will be rendered so as to emulate a dark theme. WebViews that are not attached to the view hierarchy will not be inverted.

If your app uses a dark theme, WebView will not be inverted. Similarly, if your app's theme inherits from a DayNight theme, WebView will not be inverted. In either of these cases, you should control the mode manually with ForceDark#FORCE_DARK_ON or ForceDark#FORCE_DARK_OFF.

See Force Dark documentation for more information.

Value: WebSettings.FORCE_DARK_AUTO

See Also

• #setForceDark

FORCE_DARK_OFF

static val FORCE_DARK_OFF: Int

Disable force dark, irrespective of the force dark mode of the WebView parent. In this mode, WebView content will always be rendered as-is, regardless of whether native views are being automatically darkened.

Value: WebSettings.FORCE_DARK_OFF
