Why are iOS modal animations disabled by default? Can we pass an option to enable it?

NativeScript/ui/page/page.ios.ts

Line 229 in fabe0ba

parent.ios.presentViewControllerAnimatedCompletion(this._ios, false, function completion() {

NativeScript/ui/page/page.ios.ts

Line 238 in fabe0ba

parent._ios.dismissModalViewControllerAnimated(false);

Will be animated in iOS 9 and above!

Shouldn't there be an overload for showModal that accepts a NavigationEntry?

This would allow you to control the modal animation and possibly use a page factory to generate the modal view page. Does this make sense? Or am I crazy? :)

Hey @toddanglin,

We believe that our modal pages should not be part of the navigation stack - you cannot navigate to a modal page.

[toddanglin]

That makes sense.

I was looking at it from the view of providing a way to specify the transitions (iOS/Android/Default) when showing a modal view, and possibly to provide the ability to dynamically generate a modal view (the create function). Is there a better/different way to do this with modals?
