React-native: Border turned solid on Android after upgrading from RN 41.2 to 43.3

Created on 12 Apr 2017 · 10Comments · Source: facebook/react-native

As all issues that are somewhat similar are closed, I'm opening this one: The border turned solid after upgrading from RN 41.2 to 43.3. Only Android is faulty, on iOS things work.

Styling:

  imagePlaceholder: {
    borderStyle: "dashed",
    margin: 10,
    padding: 30,
    alignItems: "center",
    borderColor: Colors.gray,
    borderWidth: 3
  },

Having the same problem. Interestingly the border becomes dashed again if adding a borderRadius larger than zero.

Thank you @JonatanRydh. You saved a lot of my effort. Hope it gets fixed.

The bug persists with version 0.44, at least on Android (haven't had the possibility to test on iOS yet), but @JonatanRydh hack did it! You can simply put borderRadius: 1 to a View and you're done

on Android with RN 0.43.1 (Expo SDK 16.0.0):
if the borderRaidus is larger than zero that keeps the dashed behavior only if using borderWidth for all borders but if you use borderBottomWidth then you see no border at all (if using dashed).
here's the expo:
