New SAP mobile service Client app for android v24.11.0 not working properly?

[Sourabh1]

Hi everyone,

I recently updated my Mobile Service Client app to version 24.11.0. After the update, I've encountered a couple of issues with my MDK app:

1. Alignment Issue: The page name is not showing in the action bar as expected. Instead, it appears below the action bar with some space between the action bar and the page name.
2. Number Input Issue: I'm unable to input numbers into simple properties. Although the keyboard type is set to number, it does not accept the entered numbers.

Has anyone else experienced these issues? Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

For the caption, in 24.11 we added support for the PreferLargeCaption setting as part of the action bar enhancements.  You can try setting this to false which should then display as you expect it.

For the number input I am not aware of this issue and will need to look into it further.  Can you share your simple property field metadata?

I have reproduced the Number input issue and raised in internal issue for it

@bill_froelich Could you give me the status of the number input issue? It is restricting the app use. Can you provide a workaround for the time being?

You can remove the Keyboard type as Number in the metadata as a workaround. The default keyboard input works as expected. It is just the Number keyboard that is not working.
