Input Bar hidden by Input Accessory View

[fluidsonic]

We don't know why but suddenly the input bar is no longer visible as long as the keyboard is shown.

We tried versions 1.5, 1.6 and master (at commit 5a442257664f76c99458db1b21c849a7fe8756ab) and the issue does always occur.

I think this is related to #230 (comment) but no separate issue was created for that problem yet.

Looking at the view hierarchies we see that the SLKInputAccessoryView is sitting in front of the SLKTextInputbar.

Why does the empty SLKInputAccessoryView have a background color and a non-zero height set? From what I understand it's not supposed to display anything.

I've been recently working on a new feature, related to the empty inputAccessoryView for panning gesture enhancements.

Would you please install this branch @fluidsonic and let me know if it's still an issue for you?
I haven't been able to repro 😕

@dzenbot that branch works fine - the input bar is visible again :)

Keyboard panning also works, although it's a bit buggy when you scroll the keyboard all the way down and then up again without lifting your finger. When the keyboard is all the way up again then finally lift the finger. Keyboard won't stay but be dismissed instead. Works fine in Messages app.

I'm glad to know that it's fixed!
That branch is still a work-in-progress thing. I submitted a PR to give visibility to whoever wanted to test and help out.
