• IDE: Visual Studio for Mac

Having the same issue, exactly the same scenario as @zekeinferno. I appreciate though that this may legitimately be a problem with FFImageLoading instead (such as relying on something XF now considers to be a bug which has been fixed since 3.4.0.925479-pre1)...

If possible, start with the VS template project and add only what you need there.

@kingces95 I've created a reproduction project from one of the VS template projects per your request and have reuploaded it to the original comment. I've also updated it to use the latest XF release from a few hours ago, 3.4.0.1008975.

It should be fixed in newest stable.

Can confirm this is now fixed for me using latest XF 3.4.0 stable and latest FFImageLoading package, thanks @daniel-luberda :)

I have confirmed that the issue has been resolved with the reproduction project I provided originally, I'll be closing this issue. Thanks for the help everyone!
