Using SfButton within an SfCarousel in Linear mode causes issues

[Chris]

Hi there,

I've been using the SfCarousel control and was hoping to build a series of "quick actions" by combining it with the SfButton control. If I add an SfCarousel control to my XAML page, set the view mode to "linear" and provide an item height and width, then set the item template to use an SfButton control (with an appropriate items source setup) what seems to happen is the carousel does scroll but only up to a certain item, then it appears to reset back to the first item again.

When I had the item dimensions as quite large (nearly the width of the carousel view) it only scrolled to around item #4 in the collection before it reset back to item #1. If I set the item dimensions to smaller (nearly 1/4 the width of the carousel view) it scrolls up to around item #7 or #8 in the collection before it resets back to item #1. 

Edit: It's worth noting that if I replace the SfButton control in the item template with a standard Button control, the carousel has no issues.

Thanks

Thanks, it's also worth noting that I've also tried using an SfButton within an SfPopupLayout control which has the view AutoSizeMode set to Both, and the buttons don't show up at all. If I was to guess, I'd hazard a guess that the SfButton isn't calculating it's bounds correctly.
