Update behavior changed?

innovatee.dev · 2022-08-22T08:21:30.359Z

I have an element in a focus group. When the group got shown or hidden the update function used to trigger but it doesn’t anymore. I really don’t know why they would change this. Just to make my life harder?

is that a yes?

I’m experiencing an issue with this too. When the “visible” property changes, the update function does not run.

HOWEVER, when the a custom state changes then the update function runs, and you can “show” and “hide” an element based on that.

This is a big problem. Anyone have any workaround for this?

I’ve reported this issue before to support and got nothing… I’ve posted this late July to warn people about this behaviour.

You may read about it on this post:

Version 3 Plugin breaks hide/show element on non responsive element Plugin builders

Hi all, Just found a situation where a v3 plugin “breaks” on a non responsive page/element. This isn’t a major failure, but it is a good heads up in case you are stuck with this like I was for a few weeks. Everything goes well until you hide the element and then try to show it again. On the “show” event, all the heights are set to ‘0’ (within and outside the plugin visual element). Bubble support responded on several iterations that this is a feature and that version 3 plugins aren’t suppose…

For me, my plugin does not have this issue on the new responsive engine: only the old one.

Correct. They are not backward compatible… Version 3 isn’t backward compatible with version 2… that is my pluggins are sitting in version 2, as most of my apps are still on v2 and not in the “new” responsive v3.

Hmm this is interesting and I did not know this!
