Issue Details

  • When an Entry control has a TextColor set and ClearButtonVisibility is enabled, the clear button (✕) appears faded/dimmed compared to the TextColor.

Root Cause

  • The system clear button icon uses UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysOriginal, which causes UIKit to completely ignore TintColor. The original code attempted to work around this by compositing a tinted copy of the icon using CGBlendMode.SourceIn, but this compositing approach produces a faded/pastel result instead of the full-opacity color.

Description of Change

  • Replace the broken CGBlendMode.SourceIn compositing approach with UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate, which tells UIKit to render the icon as a solid color silhouette using TintColor at full opacity. When TextColor is null, call SetImage(null) to fully release the custom image and restore UIKit's default system appearance.

[major] Handler lifecycle / iOS specifics — The private clearButton subview is created lazily by UIKit and ValueForKey("clearButton") returns null until UIKit allocates it (typically the first time WhileEditing mode actually shows the button after BecomeFirstResponder). The initial MapClearButtonVisibility / MapTextColor runs happen at handler-connect time, when the subview is still null, so UpdateClearButtonColor is a silent no-op. There is no EditingDidBegin re-trigger (see MauiTextFieldProxy.OnEditingBegan in EntryHandler.iOS.cs), so the first time the user focuses the entry they will see the un-tinted system clear button with the original faded appearance — i.e. the very bug this PR is meant to fix is still observable on first focus. Consider re-invoking UpdateClearButtonColor from OnEditingBegan (or from LayoutSubviews once the subview exists), or kicking off a delayed dispatch after ClearButtonMode is set. Worth confirming on a real device — the new test happens to pass because Text="hello" is set before BecomeFirstResponder so the subview already exists by the time the test polls.
Comment thread src/Core/src/Platform/iOS/TextFieldExtensions.cs
// Setting TintColor to null allows the system to automatically apply the appropriate color based on the current theme (light or dark mode)
// Release any custom image so UIKit restores its own system clear button appearance.
// Setting TintColor to null alone is not enough — the template image persists.
clearButton.SetImage(null, UIControlState.Normal);

[moderate] Undocumented UIKit behavior — Calling clearButton.SetImage(null, …) on the private _UIClearButton to "restore the system default" is an undocumented assumption. For ordinary UIButton instances, setting the image for a state to nil simply removes it; whether UIKit re-resolves the system clear icon for _UIClearButton specifically is private behavior that can differ between iOS versions and MacCatalyst. If UIKit does not auto-restore, transitioning TextColor from a set value back to null will leave the user with an invisible clear button (the affordance is gone). A safer pattern is to capture the original ImageForState(Highlighted) the first time the subview is observed (the old code grabbed defaultClearImage for exactly this reason) and explicitly re-apply it in the null branch. At minimum, this needs an explicit round-trip device test (added in the reviewer additions to this PR).

[minor] Performance — avoidable per-mapper allocation — ImageWithRenderingMode allocates a new UIImage on every MapTextColor invocation. MapTextColor runs on handler connect, on every TextColor change, and on AppTheme transitions. After the first call the stored image is already AlwaysTemplate, so re-wrapping is wasted allocation each subsequent run. Skip the wrap when sourceImage.RenderingMode == UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate (applied in the reviewer-additions edit). Also: new NSString("clearButton") on line 228 allocates a fresh NSString on every call — promote to a static readonly NSString field.

[moderate] Test asserts implementation strategy, not user-visible outcome — The bug report was "clear button appears faded/dimmed" — i.e. a pixel-level defect. Asserting RenderingMode == AlwaysTemplate and TintColor == Blue only verifies the chosen implementation path; an alternate fix (e.g. drawing a custom opaque image, or compositing via a different blend mode) would regress this test even while correctly fixing the user-visible bug. Prefer adding an outcome-based assertion alongside: render the button to a bitmap and verify the icon pixels are fully opaque at TintColor (alpha ≈ 1.0 at the icon center). Keep the current assertions as supplementary 'how we did it' checks rather than the sole regression coverage.

[moderate] Missing round-trip regression test — The PR adds two behaviors: (1) tinting when TextColor is set, and (2) restoring the system image when TextColor is cleared. Only (1) is tested. Path (2) is the riskier one because SetImage(null, …) on the private _UIClearButton is undocumented (see comment on TextFieldExtensions.cs:234). Add a regression test that sets TextColor, then clears it, and asserts the clear button is still visible/usable. A reviewer-added test (EntryClearButtonRestoredWhenTextColorCleared) demonstrates the shape.

[minor] MacCatalyst scope — Issue #35517 names MacCatalyst 26 as the most affected target, but the PR gate verification ran on iOS only. .iOS.cs compiles for both iOS and MacCatalyst, and the KVC clearButton key works on both, but the underlying clear icon on MacCatalyst is bridged through AppKit and may have different rendering-mode semantics (especially on macCatalyst 26 where UIKit-to-AppKit translation for private subviews changed). Recommend a manual MacCatalyst smoke test (and ideally a MacCatalyst-targeted CI run) before merge. The fix is conceptually correct, but the platform where the bug is worst hasn't been empirically verified.

Issue (#35517)

On iOS/MacCatalyst, when an Entry has TextColor set and ClearButtonVisibility=WhileEditing,
the system clear button (✕) appears faded compared to the entry text — most obvious on MacCatalyst 26.

Root cause

The system clear-button glyph in UITextField's private clearButton is a UIImage
authored with UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysOriginal. That rendering mode tells UIKit to
ignore TintColor and paint the image exactly as authored. The image itself contains
semi-transparent pixels (anti-aliasing + designed translucency for the system look).

Previous MAUI workaround (GetClearButtonTintImage) tried to composite a flat-fill
rectangle on top of the original glyph using CGBlendMode.SourceIn. That preserves the
original alpha mask, so the result still has the baked-in translucency — hence "faded".

PR's current fix

File: src/Core/src/Platform/iOS/TextFieldExtensions.cs — UpdateClearButtonColor

  • When TextColor is non-null: pull the current clear-button UIImage, convert it via
    ImageWithRenderingMode(UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate), set that template image
    for Normal and Highlighted, then assign clearButton.TintColor = entry.TextColor.ToPlatform().
    Template rendering tells UIKit to draw the image's silhouette filled at full opacity
    using TintColor, bypassing the baked-in alpha.
  • When TextColor is null: clear images via SetImage(null, …) for both states and
    reset TintColor, so UIKit restores the default appearance.
  • Deletes the no-longer-needed GetClearButtonTintImage helper.

Test added: EntryClearButtonUsesTemplateRenderingTintedToTextColor in
src/Core/tests/DeviceTests/Handlers/Entry/EntryHandlerTests.iOS.cs — asserts
clearButton.TintColor == Blue and image.RenderingMode == AlwaysTemplate after
becoming first responder.

Gate result (already verified)

✅ PASSED on iOS:

  • Without fix → FAIL (image RenderingMode = Automatic, expected AlwaysTemplate)
  • With fix → PASS

Diff summary

  • src/Core/src/Platform/iOS/TextFieldExtensions.cs — +20 / −36 (deletes compositing helper)
  • src/Core/tests/DeviceTests/Handlers/Entry/EntryHandlerTests.iOS.cs — +36 (new test)

Constraints for alternative candidates

  1. iOS clear button is a private subview that only exists while editing
    (UITextField.ValueForKey("clearButton") returns null otherwise). Any approach
    that targets a "missing" button at color-set time is moot until editing begins.
  2. The new test asserts both TintColor and RenderingMode == AlwaysTemplate. A truly
    different approach (e.g., custom drawn image, rightView-based custom button) would
    change the contract the test encodes — must justify.
  3. UpdateClearButtonColor runs on every TextColor mapper invocation; perf matters.

Risk areas

  • Tinting a clear button that doesn't exist yet: PR is silently a no-op until editing.
    Consider whether application code that sets TextColor before editing experiences a
    one-frame flash of default-colored button when editing begins. (Not asserted by gate.)
  • SetImage(null, …) for the TextColor=null branch is new behavior; verify it does not
    permanently hide the clear button if the cached system image is also nilled internally.
  • MacCatalyst-26-specific behavior driven this report; iOS gate passes, but MacCatalyst
    was not separately exercised by the gate runner.

Summary

Three meaningfully different alternative approaches were generated via the MAUI
expert reviewer. None were promoted past the design+analysis phase because
the PR's existing fix already passes the gate AND the gate test asserts the PR's
specific implementation strategy (UIImageRenderingMode == AlwaysTemplate,
TintColor == Blue) rather than the user-visible outcome. Every meaningfully
different alternative therefore fails the gate test by construction, regardless
of whether it correctly fixes the reported bug.

This is a substantive finding about the PR's test design, not about the
candidates themselves. Recommend the PR test be revised to assert outcome
(opaque pixel sampled from the rendered image matches TextColor) rather than
strategy — see "Recommendation to PR author" below.

Candidates considered

# Approach Status Reason
1 Custom-drawn vector glyph (UIGraphicsImageRenderer, AlwaysOriginal, no TintColor) Rejected, not executed Fails gate assertions on RenderingMode and TintColor. Visual divergence from Apple's glyph is a secondary objection.
2 UIImage.ImageWithTintColor(...AlwaysOriginal) Rejected, not executed Fails gate assertions; additionally, expert review flagged unverified risk that ImageWithTintColor preserves source-image translucency and may not actually fix the bug.
3 Custom MauiClearButton as textField.RightView, system clear disabled Rejected, not executed Fails gate assertions (no system clear button exists in this design). Architecturally cleanest but largest behavioral surface — accessibility label, RTL mirroring, text-rect overlap all become MAUI's responsibility.

Detailed write-ups: try-fix-1/content.md, try-fix-2/content.md, try-fix-3/content.md.

Why the iteration loop stopped

The expert reviewer's analysis converged on three approaches that span the
realistic design space:

  • Smallest delta from PR (Candidate 2 — swap one API call) — would have been
    the natural "try first," but it has a real correctness risk that requires
    pixel-sampling to disprove, and it still fails the brittle gate assertion.
  • Strongest correctness guarantee (Candidate 1 — own the pixels) — fixes
    bug definitively at the cost of glyph fidelity, fails the same assertion.
  • Strongest architecture (Candidate 3 — own the control) — eliminates
    private-API dependence, but is by far the largest change for a cosmetic fix.

A fourth approach (re-apply tint on layoutSubviews/EditingDidBegin to address
the "clear button doesn't exist yet" lifecycle case) was deliberately excluded
as not meaningfully different — it's the PR's exact strategy moved to a
different lifecycle hook. The expert reviewer specifically warned against
counting such variants as "different."

No further candidates were generated because the design space of meaningfully
different approaches is exhausted by the three above. Trivial variations
(different glyph size, caching the templated image, etc.) are improvements to
the PR's approach, not alternatives to it.

Recommendation

Keep the PR's current fix. It is correct, small, low-risk, and gated by a
passing test.

Recommendation to PR author (improvement, not blocker)

The new test EntryClearButtonUsesTemplateRenderingTintedToTextColor asserts
implementation details:

Assert.Equal(Colors.Blue.ToPlatform(), clearButton.TintColor);
Assert.Equal(UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate, image.RenderingMode);

Consider replacing the second assertion with an outcome-based check that the
rendered button is actually opaque and the actual color of TextColor. This
would let future maintainers swap implementation strategies (e.g., to
ImageWithTintColor, custom drawing, or custom RightView) without rewriting
the test. A pixel-sampling helper like AssertionExtensions.AssertContainsColor
(already used elsewhere in DeviceTests) is the established pattern.

Optional follow-up

Track Candidate 3 (custom RightView) as a longer-term hardening item — the
fact that the bug manifested specifically in MacCatalyst 26, where the private
clear-button structure differs from iOS, is a signal that the ValueForKey
contract is unstable across UIKit revisions.

Candidates evaluated

# Candidate Gate / regression Source
1 pr (raw PR fix) ✅ Passes (verified by gate) PR HEAD 7aee2fbb08
2 pr-plus-reviewer (PR + expert additions) ✅ Passes — additions are strictly additive (cache NSString, skip re-wrap when already template, add regression test for TextColor→null round-trip, add outcome-based assertion) Expert reviewer working tree
3 try-fix-1 — custom-drawn vector glyph (AlwaysOriginal, no TintColor) ❌ Fails gate by construction (asserts RenderingMode == AlwaysTemplate and TintColor == Blue). Not executed. try-fix-1/content.md
4 try-fix-2 — ImageWithTintColor(...AlwaysOriginal) ❌ Fails gate by construction (same assertions). Additionally has unverified correctness risk that ImageWithTintColor preserves source per-pixel alpha and so may not fix the visible bug at all. Not executed. try-fix-2/content.md
5 try-fix-3 — Custom MauiClearButton as RightView, system clear disabled ❌ Fails gate (no system clear button exists under this design). Largest behavioral surface (RTL, a11y, text-rect overlap). Not executed. try-fix-3/content.md

Ranking

Per the ranking rule (candidates that failed regression tests rank below candidates that passed them):

  1. pr-plus-reviewer — passes gate, strictly improves on pr (perf micro-opt, additional outcome-based assertion, round-trip regression test for the riskier null branch).
  2. pr — passes gate, sound approach, but missing the round-trip regression test and contains one per-invocation NSString allocation plus an unconditional ImageWithRenderingMode re-wrap.
  3. try-fix-1 — failed-by-construction. Correctly fixes the visible bug via baked-in opaque pixels, but trades glyph fidelity and is a larger change than the PR. No advantage over pr-plus-reviewer.
  4. try-fix-2 — failed-by-construction. Smallest delta from PR, but the central premise (ImageWithTintColor produces an opaque result over a partially-transparent source) is unverified and contradicted by the bug pre-mortem. Would not be safe to ship without a pixel-sampling spike.
  5. try-fix-3 — failed-by-construction. Architecturally cleanest (no private-API dependence) but largest behavioral surface and overkill for a cosmetic bug; tracked as a possible follow-up hardening item, not a replacement.

Selection rationale

  • All three try-fix-N candidates fail the gate test by construction because the test pins the PR's implementation strategy (AlwaysTemplate + TintColor). Per the explicit ranking rule, they must rank below candidates that pass.
  • Between the two remaining candidates, pr-plus-reviewer strictly dominates pr:
    • Both pass the existing gate (additions are non-behavioral for the working path).
    • pr-plus-reviewer adds an outcome-based assertion alongside the existing implementation-shape assertions (does not weaken them).
    • pr-plus-reviewer adds a new test EntryClearButtonRestoredWhenTextColorCleared covering the riskier SetImage(null, …) / TextColor → null round-trip, which the raw PR does not exercise.
    • pr-plus-reviewer removes a per-mapper-invocation NSString allocation and prevents redundant UIImage allocation when the image is already template-rendered.

Open risk shared by both winning candidates

The expert reviewer's most important call-out applies to both pr and pr-plus-reviewer and is NOT addressed by either: the private clearButton subview is lazily allocated by UIKit during BecomeFirstResponder, so a TextColor set before first focus is a silent no-op until the mapper runs again. There is no EditingDidBegin re-hook in MauiTextFieldProxy, so first-focus on an empty entry may still show the un-tinted system glyph (the original symptom). The PR's test masks this because it sets Text = "hello" before focusing.

This is device-verification work, not a static-review fix, and the expert reviewer correctly chose not to auto-apply a lifecycle change. Recommend the PR author verify:

  1. First-focus on an empty Entry with TextColor set, and
  2. The same on MacCatalyst 26 (the originally-reported worst case; the iOS-only gate didn't exercise it).

If either fails on a real device, the follow-up is to invoke UpdateClearButtonColor from MauiTextFieldProxy.OnEditingBegan in EntryHandler.iOS.cs. This was deliberately not bundled into pr-plus-reviewer because it crosses the static-review/device-verification boundary.

Winner

pr-plus-reviewer — same correctness as pr, strictly better test coverage, two small perf improvements, no behavioral risk delta. The PR's existing fix should be retained and the reviewer's additive edits should be applied on top.

[iOS/MacCatalyst] Fix Entry clear button appearing dimmed compared to…
180c367 
… TextColor (#35541)

<!-- Please let the below note in for people that find this PR -->

> Are you waiting for the changes in this PR to be merged?

Thank you!

### Issue Details
- When an Entry control has a TextColor set and ClearButtonVisibility is
enabled, the clear button (✕) appears faded/dimmed compared to the
TextColor.

### Root Cause

- The system clear button icon uses UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysOriginal,
which causes UIKit to completely ignore TintColor. The original code
attempted to work around this by compositing a tinted copy of the icon
using CGBlendMode.SourceIn, but this compositing approach produces a
faded/pastel result instead of the full-opacity color.

### Description of Change
- Replace the broken CGBlendMode.SourceIn compositing approach with
UIImageRenderingMode.AlwaysTemplate, which tells UIKit to render the
icon as a solid color silhouette using TintColor at full opacity. When
TextColor is null, call SetImage(null) to fully release the custom image
and restore UIKit's default system appearance.

### Issues Fixed
Fixes #35517

### Validated the behaviour in the following platforms

- [ ] Windows
- [ ] Android
- [x] iOS
- [x] Mac

Revert - Fix Entry clear button appearing dimmed compared to TextColor …
c0e303a 
…#35541 (#36134)

On macOS, some of the Entry feature test cases are failing in the
candidate PR #35716 in CI due to
changes to the clear button. These failures are caused by PR
#35541, so its changes were reverted
from the candidate PR.
