Phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner: [iOS] Scanning in landscape orientation ends on a blank screen

Created on 19 Jan 2017 · 10Comments · Source: phonegap/phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner

Scanning in landscape orientation on an iOS device (iPhone or iPad) ends on a blank screen.

Expected Behaviour

The cordova webview should be restored. This works perfectly on an Android device (tablet or phone).

Actual Behaviour

The screen is blank. Rotating the device to portait restores the webview.

Reproduce Scenario (including but not limited to)

Open the barcode scanner while in landscape orientation. Scan a barcode or cancel the scanning. The screen is blank.

Platform and Version (eg. Android 5.0 or iOS 9.2.1)

iOS 9.x
iOS 10.x

Cordova CLI version and cordova platform version

cordova --version : 6.3.1
cordova platforms : ios 4.3.1, android 5.2.2

Plugin version

phonegap-plugin-barcodescanner 6.0.5 "BarcodeScanner"

@jcesarmobile, thanks a lot. What is please the commit that fixes it on the _statusbar_ repo? Was it please already included in some version of _cordova-plugin-statusbar_? Depending on the master doesn't sound great. I would rather fix it to some version or at least commit (for the time being).

There are a few commit's to fully fix the problem.
All Cordova core plugins are in release vote status right now, so they will be released soon if there are no problems spotted during the vote, maybe today or tomorrow.
Stay tuned to the blog https://cordova.apache.org/blog/ or twitter https://twitter.com/apachecordova
