TapGestureRecognizer not working if child element has InputTransparent = "True"

[gktval]

Description

If InputTransparent is set to true, it should pass inputs such as TapGestures to it's parent control. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/xamarin.forms.visualelement.inputtransparent?view=xamarin-forms

However, if set to true, parent controls do not receive TapGestures.

Below is a code example. The label within the StackLayout has InputTransparent="True". However, when tapping the label, the input gesture is not passed to the parent visual element (the StackLayout).

Steps to Reproduce

Here is the code to reproduce the issue.

<StackLayout  Orientation="Horizontal"  
                     HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"  
                     VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand">

            <StackLayout.GestureRecognizers>
                <TapGestureRecognizer Tapped="TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped"/>
            </StackLayout.GestureRecognizers>

            <Label Text="Test"  InputTransparent="True" />

<StackLayout/>

In .cs code:

 private void TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
    {
        System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Tapped");
    }

Did you try setting InputTransparent to false on your parent control?

Did you try setting InputTransparent to false on your parent control?

By default InputTransparent is false. The code is exactly as shown above in the example. So the stack panel has InputTransparent set as false already.

This appears to be working on all platforms with maui 7.0.59.

It is working on 7.0.59. The latest release 7.0.81 is not working. I am guessing that is because of this https://github.com/dotnet/maui/pull/14669 I will check if this is working after the next release.

I tested it on 7.0.86 and it still has the same error.

I tested it on 7.0.86 and it still has the same error.

This is working for me in 7.0.86. Do you want to post an example where it does not work? Otherwise I will close this.
