ActivityIndicatorIOS doesn't hide initially in 0.27 #7987
Description
There seems to be a bug with ActivityIndicatorIOS in the latest stable release.
- Set
animating={false}dynamically works as expected (ActivityIndicatorIOS is hidden) - Set
animation={false}as initial prop won't hide it.
Reproduce
I assume that HMR is enabled for steps 3-5. Otherwise just use the template below.
- Fresh project: react-native init helloWorld
- Add
<ActivityIndicatorIOS animating={false} />toindex.ios.js - Run the simulator, e.g. via
react-native run-ios--> Is shown and not animated - Change prop to
<ActivityIndicatorIOS animating={true} />--> Is shown and animated - Change prop back to
<ActivityIndicatorIOS animating={false} />--> Is hidden as it should
Template
...
import {
AppRegistry,
ActivityIndicatorIOS,
StyleSheet,
Text,
TouchableOpacity,
View,
} from 'react-native';
...
class helloWorld extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
animateActivityIndicatorIOS: false,
}
}
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<TouchableOpacity onPress={() => this.setState({animateActivityIndicatorIOS: !this.state.animateActivityIndicatorIOS})}>
<Text>Toggle ActivityIndicatorIOS</Text>
</TouchableOpacity>
<Text>{'\n'}This ActivityIndicatorIOS should be shown initially, although animating=false:{'\n'}</Text>
<ActivityIndicatorIOS animating={this.state.animateActivityIndicatorIOS} />
</View>
);
}

Seems related to #7976.

It seems like calling
UIActivityIndicator.stopAnimatingdoesn't work before the view has been layed out. I had a similar issue withRefreshControland what I ended up doing is calling it in the first call youlayoutSubviews. If someone wants to submit a PR to fix this it would be great as I'm pretty busy at the moment :)Fixes ActivityIndicatorIOS doesn't hide initially
