That is not the case. If I draw my view the status bar can sometimes obscure it if I dont' set the right height.
Furthermore, there are some tablets where the status bar is at the top, and some tablets where it isn't. So I need to find a way not only to get the height of the status bar, but a way to determine *where *on the screen it is as well.
