Dropdown is not a valid view instance #250

Dropdown and angular versions :

"nativescript-drop-down": "^5.0.6", "@nativescript/angular": "8.21.0",

Issue is described here. I tried the solution suggested in the answer. Still I see the error 'Dropdown is not a valid instance'

I am testing in the nativescript preview app by running 'tns preview'

Hey @catherine-augustine , please try using tns run instead of tns preview. Multiple people have reported problems that disappeared when they used tns run and deployed on a simulator/device locally. Preview is only good when you use only the core plugins. Once you start using custom plugins it is more often a miss than a hit. I personally do not use tns preview at all.
