We cleanUp windowDecorations in viewWillDisappear. So this is happening. We could possible do it in viewDidDisappear but that might have weird side effects. Not a high priority issue for 3.1.3. Not even sure if we will fix this.
Ok, but it seems to be a iOS7-bug only, so the disappearing of barImages should be relevant, too. Without, the modals are useless for productional projects.
Additional info: The problem also occurs on iOS < 7 (tested with 5.0, 6.0 and 6.1) and worked fine in older released of the Ti-Sdk. See no reason why thinking about not fixing it. Thank you!
[~hansknoechel] I think the only reason we wouldn't fix it immediately is that fixing it quickly might introduce more serious (but subtle) side effects that we wouldn't catch in time before the release. In that case, we could fix it and push it to the CI builds so people interested could take advantage of the fix.
Ok :-) Guess i use the temporary fix by moving the cleanUp-method to viewDidDisappear. Thank you!
[~hansknoechel] I think others would appreciate it if you posted your workaround. Is that possible?
Just noticed, that moving the method doesn't help at all. The whole titleBar will be removed permanently when doing this. I guess we'll have to wait.
I've found this happens on any window which uses a barImage. The image (and specifically the titleControl) will flicker when returning to the window. To get around it for now, I'm only setting a barImage for < iOS7 devices.
This should be fixed along with the backgroundImage refactor done for TIMOB-11876
Closing ticket as fixed. Verified BarImage does not disappear for a moment on the parent window when opening a modal window. Tested on: Titanium Studio, build: 3.2.0.201310180511 SDK build: 3.2.0.v20131018142442 OS: Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5) Devices: iphone 5 (6.1.3) iphone 5 (7.0.2) *However,* the attached app.js crashes on iphone 4 (5.1.1) with SDK 3.2.0.v20131018142442. Will file another ticket.
