Issue with GIF Image on iOS – Transparent GIF Background Displays as White #28714
Description
Description:
I am using a WebView inside a Syncfusion SfPopup in my .NET MAUI application to display a GIF with a transparent background. It works correctly on Android, but on iOS, the background appears white instead of transparent.
Code:
<WebView x:Name="webLogo"
BackgroundColor="Transparent"
IsVisible="{OnPlatform Android=false}"
VerticalOptions="Center" HorizontalOptions="Center"
HeightRequest="100" WidthRequest="100">
<WebView.Source>
<HtmlWebViewSource>
<HtmlWebViewSource.Html>
<![CDATA[
<HTML>
<BODY>
<img src="loading_skipa_sinfondo.gif" style="width:40%"/>
</BODY>
</HTML>
]]>
</HtmlWebViewSource.Html>
</HtmlWebViewSource>
</WebView.Source>
</WebView>
Expected Behavior:
The image loading_skipa_sinfondo.gif should display with a transparent background on iOS, just as it does on Android.
Actual Behavior:
On iOS, the image appears with a white background instead of maintaining transparency.
Steps to Reproduce:
Add a WebView with an HtmlWebViewSource inside an SfPopup in a .NET MAUI project.
Use a GIF image with a transparent background.
Run the application on an iOS device or simulator.
Has anyone found a solution for this issue on iOS?
