Xamarin.forms: [Bug] NullReferenceException in VisualElementTracker.ShouldUpdateClip
Description
I updated my app from Xamarin.Forms version 4.6.0.800 to 4.7.0.1080, and I am getting a new exception on one of my pages when I tap on some elements (Buttons and SKCanvasView). The page is complex, so I don't know what particular part could be causing this.
Steps to Reproduce
Not entirely sure
Expected Behavior
Xamarin.Forms.Platform.iOS.VisualElementTracker.ShouldUpdateClip doesn't throw an exception
Actual Behavior
Xamarin.Forms.Platform.iOS.VisualElementTracker.ShouldUpdateClip throws an exception:

I'm facing the same issue so this means that we have to wait to the next release ? if so, the fix is downgrade the version, correct?

Same issue here. To me it seems to be resizing of some elements, possible when a keyboard is present and moving the layout

The issue still occurs in version 4.7.0.1179 on iPad Pro (9.7 inch) iOS 13.5 simulator. Could you please look at this once again?
