I am trying to add an icon for my app prototype by using this styling:
swordIcon:{
position: "absolute",
alignSelf: 'flex-start',
paddingTop: "42%"
}
However, it's position is inconsistent and sometimes random. Screenshots will represent that:
I think one time it was also something inbetween.
Why is it happening? Here's styling of the parent element if that's helpful:
container: {
flex: 1,
borderColor: "red",
borderWidth: 1,
alignItems: "center",
paddingTop: "5%",
flexDirection: "column"
},

I have a simple <Text> element in my react-native application and I can't figure out what's going on with this behavior.
When I provide a longer string and the <Text> element wraps the text, it seems to be adding a bunch of padding to the right side of the view.
Note: I've made the <Text> element have a red background just so it's easier to see what's going on in this image.
The left button has the wrapped text, the right button does not. Only when the text wraps do I see the strange padding.
Note that I'm using flexShrink: 1 so that my icon doesn't get stomped out by the text element.
<View style={styles.buttonContainer}>
<View style={styles.buttonContent}>
<Grid fill={'#fff'} style={[styles.buttonIcon, {marginRight: 6}]} />
<Text style={styles.buttonText}>
Something Longer Here
</Text>
</View>
</View>
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
buttonContainer: {
justifyContent: 'center',
paddingVertical: 14,
paddingHorizontal: 12,
borderRadius: 16,
backgroundColor: '#27292d',
opacity: 0.90,
shadowColor: '#000',
shadowOffset: { width: 0, height: 1},
shadowOpacity: 0.8,
shadowRadius: 1,
elevation: 5
},
buttonContent: {
flexDirection: 'row',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center'
},
buttonIcon: {
width: 16,
height: 16,
flexShrink: 1
},
buttonText: {
color: 'white',
fontSize: 14,
lineHeight: 16,
backgroundColor: '#ff0000',
fontFamily: 'GeezaPro',
flexShrink: 1
}
});
Update
I've put together this small example to demonstrate the problem.

When run on the web it looks like this:
But when run on android, it looks like this:
I'm having an issue where my container is collapsing on my child components which consists of a list of 4 images and one icon at the end of the container in a row. If I set the height explicitly then I can make it large enough to fit the content for one device. However, I have the images resizing themselves right now based off of width of the phone and a percent and then scaling to conserve aspect ratio. Is there a way to make my container grow just large enough to ensure it fits its child components when its child components scale based off of device width?
I thought that React Native flex default was to do this but for whatever reason my container is not fitting the images inside it but instead shrinking and all inside content is shrinking down except the images which lay over the top of my now shrunk containers.
export default function BadgeQuickView() {
return (
<View style={styles.badgeViewContainer}>
<View style={styles.badgeContainerTop}>
<View style={styles.badgeContainerLeftBorder}></View>
<Text style={styles.badgeContainerTitle}>FEATURED BADGES</Text>
<View style={styles.badgeContainerRightBorder}></View>
</View>

** Edit: Added current working code for reference. moderateScale(...) is just taking the screenHeight and scaling the height and working for most devices that I have tested thus far. I would like to not have to set this explicitly though if possible and instead have it expand based on its content.
Below is the desired and undesired looks. When I comment out the height: from the view container and set it to flex it won't expand to fit its content. When real images are added in the images show over the top of the bottom border and the text is not visible at all that will show under the red box typically. Added the red just as an indicator of where the image and text renders.
const stile = StyleSheet.create({
loginButtonn: {
backgroundColor: "#fff",
borderRadius: 30,
height: 44,
marginTop: 30,
width: 326,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center'
},
});
This isn't very well written question, but I can try to answer it.
There are multiple ways of trying to achieve what you are trying to do. My favorite way is to use flexbox, which it looks like you tried to do. You can take a look at the link but here's what you're missing; (Basically just a parent element with display of flex)
const style = StyleSheet.create({
loginButton: {
backgroundColor: "#fff",
borderRadius: 30,
height: 44,
marginTop: 30,
width: 326,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center'
},
container: {
display: 'flex',
width: '100%',
height: '100%'
}
});
In render function (something like):
<div className={style.container}>
<button className={style.loginButton} />
</div>
I was able to get #Shoutem/theme working. I want to introduce a new button style along side all the others.
Here is my code.
const theme = Object.assign(UITheme(), {
'shoutem.ui.Button': {
'.new-button': {
flex: 1,
flexDirection: 'row',
alignItems: 'center',
justifyContent: 'center',
backgroundColor: '#ffffff',
borderRadius: 2,
borderWidth: 1,
borderColor: '#cccccc',
paddingTop: 9,
paddingBottom: 9,
}
}
});
With this code in place styleName="new-button" is the only button available.
How do I make it an addition and not a replacement?
I use the following style on a component:
const styles = {
viewStyle: {
backgroundColor: '#F8F8F8',
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
height: 60,
paddingTop: 15,
shadowColor: '#000',//About the shadow setting
shadowOffset: { width: 0, height: 2 },//About the shadow setting
shadowOpacity: 0.2,//About the shadow setting
},
textStyle: {
fontSize: 20
}
};
The shadow doesn't get rendered.
Can someone tell me why?
As A. Goodale said, shadow props are only for iOS. With Android, you can use elevation in your View style.
viewStyle: {
backgroundColor: '#F8F8F8',
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
height: 60,
paddingTop: 15,
elevation: 4,
},
According to this page, the shadow props are only implemented on iOS.
