Content offset drops on Voice Over focus.

[mecid]

I am using one row horizontal layout for calendar. When Voice Over focused on calendar view it drops content offset to start of month, but i am showing current week.

When Voice Over focused on calendar view it drops content offset to start of month, but i am showing current week.

unclear on what this means. you say when you tap a date it immediately scrolls to the first date instead?

@patchthecode Please checkout the screenshot

When voice over enabled and focus switched from share button to calendar it drops content offset to start of month.

does this also happen with master branch code? ->https://github.com/patchthecode/JTAppleCalendar/wiki/Common-Questions

[mecid]

@patchthecode yes, I'm on master branch.

In that case hmm... Is it possible you have a barebones app that replicates this? I have never used this library with voice over 😅 as it wasnt on my todo list ever. If i have some sample to work with i can have a look.

@patchthecode Thanks for your time. You know I am using your calendar lib for years and now I am implementing Voice Over support for my users. You can do it with your example. These are the steps:

Run layout demonstration Select 1-row calendar layout Swipe to the middle of the month Call Siri to enable Voice Over Use swipe right to move the VoiceOver cursor When focus will achieve the calendar you will see that calendar drop position to the first date of the month.

This is happening to me too. Would love a way to address this.

@emtjoshhart I disabled accessibility element for calendar now :(

[patchthecode]

...sorry guys. ok i will take a look. i just got so caught up. will look today.

Can the problem be simulated on the simulator? or do i need an actual device?

Hey Jay, I sent you an email with video showing the bug. It seems like Voice Over will take you either to the first available date (if coming from the top) or the last available date (if coming from the bottom up). Instead of sticking to the current month that is being shown.

Looks like this may be the expected way that Apple handles Accessibility with UICollectionViews. Found these open radars, and they are old:

@mecid

I cant seem to replicate this.

1. I started my calendar app demo (located on github)
2. i swiped to the middle of the month January
3. i said "hey siri" and told siri to enable voice over
4. i them pressed the home button to dismiss the screen to get back to my calendar app
5. i focused on the calendar
6. i pressed a date on the calendar (which is still in the middle of month of january)
7. i then swiped to the next date screen

I thought i would have restarted to the start of the month like you guys said, but it correctly went to the next screen.

Is there something wrong in the steps i did? I tested on iPhone SE swift 4.2

[Hartistic]

Yes @patchthecode, please see the example I emailed you

[patchthecode]

@emtjoshhart can you join me here? https://gitter.im/patchthecode/JTAppleCalendar

[mecid]

@patchthecode yes, it is wrong) Please check steps which I described. Don't press on the date, you have to swipe.

I've set the help wanted flag long time now. Because I could never reproduce this. I'm not sure if this is still happening in version 7.1.8 Will leave this issue up still.

[mecid]

@patchthecode I will check it with 7.1.8.

I'm facing this problem too 😢 In "Debug View Hierarchy" section, and showing the clipped content, its possible to see all available in my calendar. Please take a look at the image bellow.

Maybe thats the problem... if there is something like "dequeue reusable cell with identifier" of a table view could prevent this, couldn't?
