platform: ios - Breaks tabs on IOS

[Mat-Moo]

When I use :-
[code]
            var app = new kendo.mobile.Application(document.body, {
                layout: "mobile-tabstrip", 
                transition: "slide", 
                //platform: "ios", // make all look like IOS!
            });
[/code]
My app will then no longer work correctly on iphone or iphone 5 in the simulator (Not been able to try on a real one yet). The tabs gets pushed down and you have to scroll to get access to them.

Hi Mat-Moo,

I will report the issue to the kendo team. Thanks for sharing this.

Could you, please, clarify why do you need to set explicitly the platform to iOS?

Got a fairly custom styled app, and as such having to restyle two variations of css is long winded. Therefore the theory was style everything as IOS, restyle IOS things - job done :)

Hi,

I have communicated the problem with the guys from kendo and they've fixed it.
You will get the change with the next version of Icenium.

Until then, here is a sample configuration that you can use in order to avoid the problem:

var app = new kendo.mobile.Application(document.body, {
    transition: "slide",
    layout: "mobile-tabstrip",
    platform: {
        device: "iPhone",     // Mobile device, can be "ipad", "iphone", "ipod", "android" "fire", "blackberry", "meego"
        name: "ios",          // Mobile OS, can be "ios", "android", "blackberry", "meego"
        ios: true,            // Mobile OS name as a flag
        majorVersion: 6,      // Major OS version
        minorVersion: "0.0",  // Minor OS versions
        flatVersion: "600",   // Flat OS version for easier comparison
        appMode: true,        // Whether running in browser or in AppMode/PhoneGap/Titanium.
        tablet: false         // If a tablet - tablet name or false for a phone.
    }
});

I hope this is helpful.
