Place a ListView inside a ModalStack and handle its itemTap event. outsideTap gets called, correctly identifies that it was inside the rect, returns. But event doesn't reach the handler.

Reference project:

comment ModalStack out and listview will work. Tapping the label which has its own tap works

This is a bug with nativescript. binding a tap on a parent element prevents tapping on the listview:

For fullscreen Modals, I used a <StackLayout> instead of the defined <ModalLayout>, and my @itemTap worked like normal, just in case anyone is needing a quick fix. I guess it's the same as commenting it out, but if you are using the parent <ModalLayout> for styling, like .modal-container, this might be a solution for you.

[mukaschultze]

The ModalStack is used for layout and closing the modal when touching outside of the child frame, this feature won't work without it, and can cause some inconsistency between Android and iOS.

@mukaschultze, same for me. Do you know how we can do any workaround?
