Has anybody noticed that when you use the image picker and then remove the image from the picker, it makes the whole screen blank?

Noticed the same thing using file and image pickers.

I’m noticing the screen going blank when trying to delete a file.

It happens in some apps but not in others.

@Joe_Gabriele @Mikaeldorval were you able to make anything of this?

Same thing was happening to me, ended creating a pretty sweet looking workaround though. I actually like it better than before. It’s not as straight forward obviously, but I’m happy to share the method if anyone is interested.

@NoCodeAndy We just noticed the screen going blank when attempting to click the right side X to remove an attached image or file from an edit screen.

It appears to be a bug ONLY when running the app in the new Player (Beta). This occurs on all platforms mobile and desktop across ALL apps we have testing out the beta player. It does not happen in the normal player.

Hope it gets resolved because we like the speed bump of the new Player (Beta). 🙂

@Alpha_University could you please share? What did you do to prevent the screen from going blank?

Sorry for the delay guys, here you go.

I use the Action Row to display what has already been uploaded instead of the original photo picker, it’s also used to clear the image if needing to upload a different one in its place. So the Photo picker only shows if is empty and the Action Row only shows if its not.

Let me know if anyone has any questions.
