Labels added in code are not displayed on Android

[janseris]

Description

This project dynamically adds and removes Labels from/to an existing StackLayout as indicators of action results (action = DB call).

When each action finishes, a new label is added into the StackLayout container.

On Windows, the labels are displayed.

On Android, there are no labels displayed (or they are empty? I don't know)

This is supposed to be displayed:

Actual display (nothing):

I have added a debug print to show expected label contents in the Debug Output window.

I am coming here after launching a new .NET Maui app in the Android Simulator and noticed that the button label does not resize to fit the text. So although the button text is changed to "clicked x times," the button does not resize to fit the text.

I can only assume all of these rendering issues are related.

Update, see this version janseris/MAUI_SQLServer_Test@72b40bf janseris/MAUI_SQLServer_Test@52b2a18 of the sample project:

• it is possible to get the labels to appear using a hack by clicking into an enabled Editor control (writing any text is not neccessary)
  • if the Labels should be there, they appear after writing into the Editor control (DB calls must be executed so that the Labels are supposed to show because they show the results of these DB calls)

Probably another manifestation of #8071, likely fixed by #8136. We'll need to verify.

This should be fixed as of service release 3.
