Please, tell us how to recreate the issue in as much detail as possible.

After upgrading from tns 4.2.3 to 5.1, application fails whenever it renders a layout with the "shadow" directive, error is the following:

[native code]: ERROR Error: View already has a parent. View: StackLayout(106) Parent: StackLayout(105)

Is there any code involved?

• Just using directive

`

</StackLayout>

I'm not able to reproduce this using the demo project. Could you maybe provide a project so I could test?

Try upgrading tns-core-modules as well.

Edit: also, our app is using shadow basically everwhere, and we're on 5.1

Sorry, I missed this, could it be a spelling error StakLayout?
