Can't resolve resources

[EmilAlipiev]

For the simple code below. I get error message that "Can't resolve resources: entryStyle" is it normal?

 <ContentView.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
      <Style x:Key="entryStyle" TargetType="Entry">
        <Setter Property="HeightRequest" Value="50"/>
        <Setter Property="WidthRequest" Value="50"/>
        <Setter Property="Keyboard" Value="Numeric"/>
        <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="Black"/>
        <Setter Property="FontAttributes" Value="Bold"/>
        <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="Large"/>
        <Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="White"/>
        <Setter Property="PlaceholderColor" Value="Gray"/>
      </Style>
    </ResourceDictionary>
  </ContentView.Resources>

  <Entry    Style="{StaticResource  entryStyle}"   ></Entry>

Hi, when are you getting the "Can't resolve resources: entryStyle"? I guess that you get the error when you try to preview a ListView (or similar) that contains this ContentView within its item template, right? Or is it a different scenario?

There is a bug that happens when:

1. you define a style within a ContentView
2. reference it within the ContentView content as a StaticResource
3. you preview something that use that ContentView within a DataTemplate.

Currently, the workaround is to use DynamicResource instead of StaticResource.

yes exactly this is the scenario. Entry is inside listview as below

  <ListView x:Name="mylist"    Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1"  ItemsSource="{Binding Items}"   CachingStrategy="RecycleElement" VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand" RowHeight="50" >
        <ListView.ItemTemplate>
          <DataTemplate>
            <ViewCell>
              <StackLayout Orientation="Horizontal"   >
                <Label  Text="{Binding text}"  TextColor="Black"  FontAttributes="Bold" FontSize="Large" WidthRequest="30"></Label>
                <Entry StyleId="entId"  Placeholder="0"   Style="{StaticResource  entryStyle}"    Text="{Binding  count}" ></Entry>

such a crucial thing is a bug. thats really impossible to work with gorilla. If i have to use dynamic resources, i need to build my app for gorilla player. it makes no sense. sorry
