iOS Question Layout changes not being compiled into the App

[cooperlegend]

I am experiencing a strange problem on one of my Apps, no matter what I change of the screen layouts in the designer they are not changing on the compiled App

I have tried release and debug

I have tried rebooting the iPad.

I have tried cleaning the project.

I am using simple designer layouts with AutoScaleAll and Handle Resize Event ticked. Nothing in the code to resize any of the Views that have changed in the designer but not once compiled

Any ideas?

BTW, I use the Hosted Build Server, Is this caching my old layouts somehow ????

 

[Erel]

Uninstall the app from the device, clean the project and try again.

 

[cooperlegend]

I did all that, I even just tried using the secondary build server

 

[cooperlegend]

Can you clear the cache on the hosted build server ????

 

[cooperlegend]

This is baffling me, I have tried everything I can think of... please , help needed

@cooperlegend can you post a screenshot of the the designer payout (with any scripts ran) and also the iPad screenshot?

 

[Erel]

The only way to help is if you upload a small project that demonstrates this issue. It is probably a mistake on your side.

You're missing the designer screenshot, are you running any designer scripts?

But as Erel said its probably an extremely small error on your side that you've missed...

What happens in these conditions?
- Run B4i-Bridge
- Open the Designer
- You should see the layout on the iPad.
- What happens when you make a change?
- You should see it.
- And after compiling the chages should be OK.

The two images I uploaded are one with the designer via b4i-bridge the other is the app running. I added the small label "here" and that changed on both, but as you can see the sizes are different from design to App, I am not using any scripts

As Erel already suggested, you should post a small project showing the problem.

This "issue" just gets weirder and weirder... It is not as if I am new to all this, I have been using B4X for many years now and never had an issue like this..

If I add and new label (like the "new" one in the previous post) it show up in the correct place. But if I move a label or re-size one it changes fine in the designer and preview via b4i-bridge on the iPad, but when I compile and run the App it shows up in the old location, every screen in this project does the same

Sorry, but I can't help further here.
A last idea, have you tried to compile it in Release mode?

 

[cooperlegend]

It has got to be some sort of cache issue.

I just copy the email screen to a new name iEmailNew.bil , compiled the program and no change

EmailPage.RootPanel.LoadLayout("iEmailNew")

Then I deleted the iEmailNew.bil file but kept the same code in the project (loading iEmailNew.bil) and it ran file showing the new correct screen . How ?

 

[cooperlegend]

As in my first post, release and debug make no difference

 

[cooperlegend]

Oh, and, it is not just this project, I tried another project and it does exactly the same thing

Quick Question: Do you have layout variants?
The only time I have seen this happen is when I tried to use variants.
I don't use them anymore
