Content doesn't stretch when rotate (portrait mode)

[DanilloCorvalan]

Does anyone know how to solve this problem ?

I'm seeing this also, the inspector shows that the calculated width is always 375 regardless of content or orientation. If I take away the Swiper element, the content expands as expected. Any ideas? Wonder if this is related to the fact that this is interpreted/rendered as an <index> element rather than Swiper or some other expected element...

Not quite sure what the automaticallyAdjustContentInsets property does per the docs, I tried setting this to true thinking it might affect layout but no luck.

the swiper take in a width and height parameter which can make it work in landscape, but it bugs out if a transition occurs.

Hopefully this helps if someone comes across this issue. I used https://github.com/yamill/react-native-orientation to add an event when orientation changes. I then get the dimensions and change the state to those dimensions re-rendering screen.

Thanks @joshualcoffee

It sounds like the best solution may be to modify react-native-swiper to include react-native-orientation.

@esutton You don't need to modify react-native-swiper directly. The Swiper component will listen for changes to the width prop so using react-native-orientation's orientation change event, you can pass the updated Dimensions.get('window').width.

@joshualcoffee Could you please explain how did you do that?

[maxx-coffee]

@cosivox Sure thing!

This has not been tested but you should be able to get the idea from the example. This would be the internal slide component that you would include for each item in your slider.

In my code I found setting the view to be absolute and setting left, right, top, and bottom to 0 achieved the result I wanted.

import React, {Component} from 'react'
import Orientation from 'react-native-orientation'
const {
  View,
  Dimensions
} from 'react-native'
let window = Dimensions.get('window')
class Foo extend Component {
  constructor(_){
    super(_)
    this._orientationDidChange = this._orientationDidChange.bind(this)
    this.state = {
      width: window.width,
      height: window.height
    }
  }

  _orientationDidChange(orientation) {
    let window = Dimensions.get('window')
    this.setState({
      width: window.width,
      height: window.height
    })
  }

  componentDidMount() {
    Orientation.addOrientationListener(this._orientationDidChange);
  }

  render(){
    <View style={{width: this.state.width, height: this.state.height, position: 'absolute', left: 0, top:0, right: 0, bottom: 0}}>
  }
}

Setting width prop to Dimensions.get('window').width solved problem for me

@khrykin Does it working for you with vertical and horizontal mode?
Could you send your code?
