disappearing footer

[Michael]

If I set data-transition="slide" on a view that contains a footer, and then navigate to that view via app.application.navigate() triggered by a drawer link, then the footer disappears and does not come back.

I don't really need a solution, just thought I'd put it out there.

Hello Michael,

Thank you very much for sharing this. Is it possible for you to provide a test case or an URL of your project, where we can observe this misbehaviour? It sounds like you have found a bug, which we should be able to address.  

Thank you in advance,

Unfortunately I can not provide the code. But, the app has several views. The initial view does not have a footer, but the secondary views share a common footer. There is a left drawer to use for navigation. Instead of direct links, I've been implementing app.application.navigate() to move between views. For whatever reason, once I set the slide transition on the views that share the footer, traveling to those views via navigation causes the footer to disappear. It doesn't happen otherwise,

Hello Michael,

In general, navigating between views from the drawer should not happen with animation, since there is already animation happening, the drawer collapses automatically when a new view is displayed.

Is it possible to set the slide animation only in specific instances? Maybe set/unset the property depending on the navigation method? There are a number of different ways that a user can reach the view within our app - one of them being from a drawer.

Hello Michael,

The view transition can be set at the view or at the link that triggers it.
