I tried to create a sample app which showed the problem but it worked flawlessly :)
I think it must be the way I am instantiating/setting the properties & styles of the TabNavigator and its content in my main app. The entire UI is built at runtime by parsing an external XML file so perhaps I am adding content to the TabNavigator before it is ready or the paddingTop style has been applied. I'll have to do some more digging to find out what is wrong.
