SfEffectsView needs improvements, because of its problem lots of other controls crash when Visual="Material"

Hello,

I was going to write about problems with SfExpander when Visual="Material" but actually it is wider problem. When Material is active lots of controls wrap elements in SfEffectsView to show ripple effects, its nice, but unfortunately there are some unsolved problems with SfEffectsView so app crashes often in such scenerio.

For example there is fairly random System.NullReferenceException when you navigate from page, go back, and try to expand (few times). Details bellow.

I hope it can be fixed soon in coming releases.

Best regards,
Radoslaw Kubas

Hi Radoslaw,

 

Greetings from Syncfusion.

 

We have checked the reported scenario and the issue is not reproduced in iOS platform when setting Visual property as Material in the SfExpander. Could you please ensure once whether you have initialized the SfEffectsViewRenderer in the AppDelegate.cs file? We have attached the tested sample.

 

Please check the below sample and confirm us whether you can able to reproduce the issue in your side. If you still facing the issue, please revert us by modifying the attached sample to reproduce the issue which will be helpful for us to assist you earlier.

 

Regards,

Lakshmi R.

Hello,

Thank you for your answer. I prepared modified sample to show the issue. To reproduce in iOS simulator:

1. Expand "Expander 1"
2. Tap "GotoNewPage" in "Expander 1"
3. On the new page expand "Expander 1"
4. Tab "Back"
5. On the MainPage expand "Expander 2"

I hope it helps.

Best regards,
Radoslaw Kubas
