iOS Question Issue with corner radius on label

[John Naylor]

I'm going round in circles on this so posting and hoping someone can save my sanity.

I'm creating a view that lists conversations (like the main Whatsapp view or any other messaging app) for B4A & B4i. An xCustomListView holds a panel for each conversation. The right hand side of the panel has a label which shows the number of unread messages in that convo.

In the B4A version I can easily round the corners of the label to make it look like whatever number displayed is in a circle.

(How rounded the corners are is a #DesignerProperty of the control)

In B4i I am having an issue. As each panel is drawn, the corners are rounded (I can see this if I put breakpoints in my code). When all the panels have been drawn, the curved corners go back to being square.

Here it is, paused just after adding 3 panels....



and here is immediately after the click event (which adds the entries) finishes.



I can't spot where I've gone wrong! Hoping somebody would be kind enough to point me in the right direction.

The B4i part of the project (including demo cod) is attached along with the custom view as code.

Thanks in advance!

That is the reason why I developed the AS_Label. This is the native IOS behavior.

[B4X] [XUI] AS Label - CrossPlatform Label

This is a simple label view, in IOS roundings are removed when resizing or colors are not displayed properly. This can be fixed by placing a panel under the label, this view does the work for you. Just set the properties you want in the designer like in a normal label. ASLabel Author: Alexander...

if you want just an solution without the AS_Label, then read the first row in my lib. thread

I totally missed your AS_Label during my searches! Wow, thank you so much, that has worked perfectly. Coffee on its way!
