New to react native, trying to place text-box above scrollable tab view
export default React.createClass({
render() {
return
<View>
<TextInput
style={{height: 50}}
placeholder="Enter!"
onChangeText={(searchText) => this.setState({searchText})}/>
<ScrollableTabView
style={{marginTop: 10, }}
initialPage={1}
renderTabBar={() => <FacebookTabBar />}
>
<ScrollView tabLabel="ios-search" style={styles.tabView}>
<View style={styles.card}>
<TextInput
style={{height: 50}}
placeholder="Enter!"
onChangeText={(searchText) => this.setState({searchText})}/>
</View>
</ScrollView>
</ScrollableTabView>
</View>
;
},
});
Scrollable tab view doesn't show up with above code, I am unable to understand why, please advice. I am trying to make something like Linkedin app.
<ScrollableTabView>
is styled with flex: 1
, so you need to explicitly set flex: 1
to its parent like this in order to show it:
return (
<View style={{flex: 1}}>
...
</View>
);
Here is a quote from React Native documentation regarding Flex:
A component can only expand to fill available space if its parent has dimensions greater than 0. If a parent does not have either a fixed width and height or flex, the parent will have dimensions of 0 and the flex children will not be visible.
