However when I set this property in .tss it works fine. I tested this on android 4.2.2 using genymotion emulator.
This is my xml code:
if I set touchEnabled="false" on imageview or label app crashed with above error message.
This is a known issue and is being tracked as part of ticket TIMOB-16063. You can simply work around this issue by using a boolean value instead of a string for touchEnabled property. Change …
Does this apply to any property that should be a bool?
Nope. Just for touchEnabled property.
When do we as developers get this fixed? All my Alloy apps do not work in Ti 3.2 anymore because of this error, so I am rather stuck...
[~ray@raymondverbruggen.nl] This issue has already been fixed in 3.2.X branch so you can either try a nightly 3.2.X CI build to verify the fix or wait for 3.2.1 release scheduled to be released in few weeks.
