Description

If you apply layout:'horizontal' to a view, the label disappears on iOS and is truncated in Android.

Test Code:


var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
        backgroundColor: '#000'
});

var view = Ti.UI.createView({
    //layout:'horizontal',
    left:0,
    right:0
});

var label = Titanium.UI.createLabel({
    text:'TEST',
    color:'#000000',
    top:2,
    right:15,
    height:26,
    left: 15,
    backgroundColor:'#fff'
});

view.add(label);

win.add(view);

win.open();

remove comment for layout to test behavior.

Horizontal layout makes room by asking for the minimum needed. At time of writing, the minimum needed by a view with undefined width is '0'. As of 2.0, the minimum needed is Ti.UI.SIZE, which is much less than without horizontal layout. In short, marking invalid.
