[Bug] In .Net 8 MAUI VisibleViews property of CarouselView is not working

[AmanGoyal009]

Description

In .Net 8 MAUI we are trying to get the current view using VisibleViews property. But we are getting an empty list everytime. Even though items are visible in the Carousel View and user can properly interact with the UI also.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create one Carousel View in the XAML File.
2. Create one Submit Button.
3. Once data is visible inside Carousel View click on the submit button and try to access the VisibleViews property. It will give empty collection.

Expected Behavior

It should give the value. It's working in .Net 7.

Basic Information

• Version with issue: .Net 8
• Last known good version: .Net 7
• Platform Target Frameworks:
  • iOS: 17.4.1
• Affected Devices: iPhone 15

Environment

Show/Hide Visual Studio info

``` using System.Collections.ObjectModel; namespace SampleCarouselView; public partial class MainPage : ContentPage { ObservableCollection userNames; public ObservableCollection UserNames { get => userNames; set { userNames = value; OnPropertyChanged(nameof(UserNames)); } } public MainPage() { InitializeComponent(); BindingContext = this; UserNames = new ObservableCollection() { "User 1", "User 2", "User 3", "User 4", "User 5" }; } void Button_Clicked(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e) { Console.WriteLine("Before calling VisibleViews getter property"); var list = displayCarouselView.VisibleViews.ToList()[0]; // Currently getting VisibleViews count as 0. Console.WriteLine("After calling VisibleViews getter property"); } } ```
