controls "visible" unchecked but visible anyway

[Sean Kelley]

Yesterday I noticed that 3 items were visible (one intermittently) even though their visible box is unchecked. Two are inputs and one a button .

Hello,

Component won't be hidden in the editor. It's becoming invisible after app run on device or in test mode.

If component is visible in Test on browser you should check if there are any Actions change component Visible property.

I am running app in test mode and on device and in the case of the above screen shot, both To and Subject are visible when it is unchecked "visible" The page is the preloaded SendGrid_MailSend from the sendgrid plugin. I simply hid the To input because the value is being set from a local storage variable and I did not need user to attempt to fill it in. The Subject is just set as a text value. Actually, I just tested again and noticed in Tiggzi test mode I cannot see the inputs on the attached image but on my nexus 7 (installed apk) I see both inputs To and Subject. Subject is being set by a set property-text-value action. If I remember correctly, the screen capture was on desktop using tiggzi test so that means that it did fail at one point on tiggzi test as well.

Hello! So, just to clarify, do you mean that when you have Visible property unchecked it works in desktop browser, but doesn't work (you can see input fields) after you install app on Android device?

[Sean Kelley]

Right now i have a button on one page that is showing on test (desktop) which "visible" is uncheck for testing. It still is visible and works on test. It would only open a popup. Page event looks like
videoButton Click Open as popup Popup: viewVideo

I have other input fields on other pages, that at the moment, are only misbehaving on device but I believe that they too were not working all the time on browser test and device. For example, one looked hidden as it should have been. I went to another page and then hit the back button and it showed the "hidden" input. Not all the time and not on my last test.

Could you please make your app link public and send us that link so we can test it. Also please clarify steps to reproduce the problem with visible property.

Hi Sean
I am just wondering did you solve this problem, I have similar with text inputs

kind regards
michael

[Sean Kelley]

yes- it was a bug. the work around was to hide with CSS. I gave it class hiddenItem

.hiddenItem {
display:none !important;
}

Thanks for the headsup on that Sean,
I didn't get it to work, possibly because my inputs are loading variable on load, but I will try using another event and see if that works.

thanks again your info
