CollectionView does not allow clicking of child elements

[LennoxP90]

Description

I have an application that utilized Listview for this behaviour in XF, I would like to switch to CollectionView in MAUI

I have a messaging application that has the ability to click on url links that are embedded into messages and open the appropriate browser

In MAUI with the CollectionView my Label Span is not clickable, the listview just selects the row but does not propagate the tap to the label

Steps to Reproduce

1. create a Listview or CollectionView
2. add a label with a formattedText value of a clickable url
3. try to click the label on both CollectionView or ListView

Expected Outcome: should open the browser and navigate to the URL Actual Outcome: nothing happens when you click collectionview but selects the row when you click listview

This feels like an input transparency issue. Are you sure the Label control gets clicked?

[LennoxP90]

interesting i didn't think of this I added a gesture recognizer directly to the label control

<Label FormattedText="{Binding Text}">
  <Label.GestureRecognizers>
    <TapGestureRecognizer Tapped="TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped"/>
  </Label.GestureRecognizers>
</Label>

now my span command is being executed but the TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped is not being called updated repro with the behaviour

Facing this issue on Android in both SR5 (.NET 6) and RC1 (.NET 7).

Even the SelectionChangedCommand of the CollectionView is not getting triggered.

As an alternate implementation, have tried defining the Tap gesture as part of the control within the item template of the CollectionView, but NO change in behavior.

Request to look into this issue on priority as CollectionView is the much needed control.

Facing this issue on Android in both SR5 (.NET 6) and RC1 (.NET 7).

Both SelectionChangedCommand and Tap gesture work fine on the Windows platform and I couldn't able to test on other platforms due to infra issues.

some regressions have happened and my hack is no longer working in latest MAUI 7.0.59 with iOS Android seems to still work fine

This issue should be fixed by this PR - #12027
