bug: ionic 5 refresher not working inside sidemenu (mobile MD mode)

[michielcrabbe96]

Bug Report

Ionic version:
[x] 5.x

Current behavior:
I have an ion-refresher implemented inside the ion-content of an ion-menu. When I'm in mobile MD mode the refresher doesn't appear. However when the screen is large enough that the ion-split-pane kicks in and the menu stays visible, then the ion-refresher works.

Expected behavior:
The ion-refresher to appear in mobile MD mode inside a sidemenu.

Steps to reproduce:
In a new ionic (sidemenu) project, put an ion-refresher inside the ion-content of an ion-menu. When you open the menu in a mobile MD context, try to swipe down to trigger the ion-refresher. You will see the ion-refresher doesn't appear.

Any news on this or a workaround?

the error continue any help?

A possible workaround is to use the iOS refresher version.
<ion-refresher slot="fixed" mode="ios" (ionRefresh)="refreshNotifications($event)"> <ion-refresher-content></ion-refresher-content> </ion-refresher>

You'll probably also wanna change the refreshingSpinner attribute on the refresher content.

Thanks for the issue. This has been resolved via #22446, and a fix will be available in an upcoming release of Ionic Framework.
