Tap not firing on label inside slide

[terreb]

nativescript 2.3.0 tns-core-modules 2.3.0 tns-ios 2.3.0 nativescript-carousel-view 2.0.1 simulator iOS 9.3

How to reproduce:

1. Change slider-view.xml in the demo app to:

<StackLayout loaded="onLoaded" horizontalAlignment="center" padding="12">
    <Label text="{{ first }}"/> 
    <Label text="{{ last }}" tap="test"/>
    <Button text="Remove me" tap="buttonTap"/> 
</StackLayout>

2. Add handler to slider-view.ts

export function test() {
    console.log('TEST')
}

3. Run the demo, tap on last name, see whether console prints 'TEST'

@terreb label doesn't have tap event. To attach events to label you have to use gestures http://docs.nativescript.org/api-reference/classes/_ui_label_.label.html

As you probably already found out by yourself tap event is working on labels outside your plugin. So, why the issue is closed?

Version 2.0.2 released. Now you can use onLoaded() to hook up tap event to labels.

Actually, closing this was the right thing. Label tap works both with a function in code behind and with bindings. Maybe fixing onLoaded() fixed that too? Thanks

I don't know, but it works like a charm now! Thanks a lot!
