The translator section is a Label with HTML content. It was previously correctly formatted with white text, centered and no misplaced characters. I was using the HtmlLabel plugin previously.

Way too easy to reproduce to make a whole reproduction repo for it...

I can confirm that html text with no other coloring embedded in the value still shows up with black TNR style of text on iOS where it respects at least TextColor on android. as of 4.6. Makes the TextType = HTML on a label really pretty worthless.

It affects font size as well as colour.

Xamrin.Forms: 4.6.0.800

So bumped everything up to 4.8.0.1238-pre3 in the Monkey CSS App in Xamrin samples

<Label TextType="Html" FontAttributes="Bold" FontSize="20" HorizontalTextAlignment="End" TextColor="Red" Text="4.8.0.1238-pre3" >

<Label TextType="Html" FontAttributes="Bold" FontSize="20" HorizontalOptions="Center" TextColor="Red" Text="4.8.0.1238-pre3" >

HorizontalTextAlignment is still not working in either XAML attribute or CSS class.

CDATA works well inside the XAML tag and setting HTML from code works as well
