Watermark (Placeholder) is no longer displayed

[Viana]

Hi,

with the newest Xamarin Forms version 5.0.0.2515 and the current syncfusion version 20.2.0.43 the watermark is no longer displayed.

The same issue appeared in Xamarin Forms Textinputs: https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/issues/15435 .

Adding

global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.SetFlags("Disable_Accessibility_Experimental");

to the Mainactivity as suggested fixes this Issue in sfnumerixtextbox aswell so that might be related.

Kind regards

Thanks for bringing the problem and its solution to our knowledge.

Are you going to fix this like it was fixed in xamarin forms?

Currently, our development team is checking the issue with the framework controls. We will fix and include it in any of our upcoming releases. As of now, please set the "Disable_Accessibility_Experimental" flag in the Main activity class to resolve the issue.
