Strange behavior on iOS

[Pierre-Christophe DUS]

Hello,

I’ve found a strange issue on iOS, for some views that contain cards, as it’s the case for Transaction History Page for example.

To reproduce the issue, you just have to follow this:

- select a page that contain a card, like Transaction History Page: the border of the cards are thin

- put the app in background and open another app

- go back to the app: the border of the cards are bigger

In some cases, it’s possible to get the same issue after a navigation to a browser when an item has been clicked in a list...

Hi Pierre-Christophe DUS, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion. 

 

We have analyzed your query and we checked with your replication procedure, it was working fine at our end. We have tested the Essential UIKit Application in the below configuration. 

 

Configuration Detail: 

 

AppCenter version: 18.2.0.35(1820035) 

Publish Date:  9^th September 2020 

Device Version: iPad (5^th generation) 13.6.1  

    

Could you please update us the configuration detail which is different from the above configuration details?. This will be helpful for us to investigate further and provide you a better solution at the earliest.

Hi Yuvaraj,

I've did some new tests, always on the same iOS simulator: iPhone 11 - 13.3.

When I do the test, just after having opened the solution, without any package update, I don't encounter this issue, but I don't see the images:

If I redo the same test, after having updated all solution's packages (Synfusion, Xamarin.Forms,...) to the latest stable version, I get the issue, but I also see the images:

I get the same issue on a real device (iPhone XS - 13.7).

I hope this will help you,

Regards

Hi Pierre-Christophe DUS, 

 

Thanks for your update. 

 

We have prepared the simple sample with Essential UIKit Transaction Histroy Page. And it was working fine at our end. Also, I have attached the sample for your reference. Please find the sample fro the below link. 

 

Sample: https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/158147/ze/TransactionHistroyPageTemplate53270837  

  

Could you please ensure the reported issue with the above sample and update us still the issue reproduced. Meanwhile our development team is checking on this.

I'm sorry but your sample is not good, as the iOS FrameShadowRenderer is missing.

So when I launch your sample, I get cells with wide borders:

If I add the existing FrameShadowRenderer  in your sample, this time we get thin borders, but the photos are missing:

After having updated the Nuget packages of your sample, the initial result is correct, as we have thin borders and the photos are displayed. But I'm still able to reproduce the issue after having put the app in background: the borders become wide.

I'm not sure that you've seen the issue: it's the style that is lost after having put the app in background, as the borders that were thin become wide.

I've attached the modified solution (with the renderer and the update of the Nuget packages), so you will be able to reproduce the issue from your side.
