CachedImage Auto Height

This may be a dumb question, but is there not a way to have CachedImage fill the width and have the height be whatever it needs to be in respect of the width? This is how the Image tag works in Xamarin.Forms, but it doesn’t work properly for CachedImage.

Just as @CarLoOSX said - it’s a thing we need to change in an upcoming major release. It’s mentioned in every FFImageLoading release notes.

FFImageLoading has a regression since 2.2.4 which caused CachedImage to always fill entire space available (different behaviour than Image. It’s now fixed, but as it was included in many versions it may be a breaking change for some. That’s why I didn’t enable that fix by default. You can do it manually with:

CachedImage.FixedOnMeasureBehavior = true; Read more here: #545

Also for Xamarin.Forms >= 2.4 please set: CachedImage.FixedAndroidMotionEventHandler = true if experiencing any gesture recognizers problems on Android.

I’ll include it as a default in next major version.

Xamarin.Forms (Android) now uses fast renderers by default if possible (correct XF version). You can enable / disable fast renderers by CachedImageRenderer.Init(enableFastRenderer: [true/false] override.

Okay I’m not having this problem in iOS, but in Android the images doens’t appears, I thought it was this problem but I have corrected in MainActivity using this: CachedImageRenderer.Init(enableFastRenderer: true); CachedImage.FixedAndroidMotionEventHandler = true;

You can see the explanation in the release notes of the last version.
