How to unMount the overlay, When I pop my scene, the overlay on this scene can't disdrory, it show on the next scene, I don't want that.

Hi @soliury! Can you give me some example code where this happens? If you can do that I can surely fix it for you 😄

[osdio]

I have delete the wrong code.

But I can discribe in words:

I put a overlay in a sence named topic, I push the sence in a sence named tab, and then, turn to the topic sence, but when I pop this sence by use navigator.pop() it works, the overlay can disdrory, but when I use gesture to pop it , it can't disdrory, it will show in tab sence.

@soliury - thanks! I'll try to reproduce

@soliury I wonder if you set the boolean variable that would be used by the Overlay's isVisible property to false. Set this boolean variable in the `Topiccomponent'scomponentWillUnmount()`` method...

I'm experiencing a similar issue. I have the following in my Overlay:

componentWillUnmont(){

    this.props.isVisible = false;
    this.render();
},

However, there is always about a second of lag before the Overlay actually removes itself, and it sometimes fails to do so for a few seconds. Furthermore, when I cmd+R to refresh the JS and load a new preview of my app, the Overlay stays on the simulator and doesn't remove itself. Is there another way I can reliably remove the Overlay?

Thanks so much!

If anyone has a chance to investigate this further it would be much appreciated! Unfortunately I have higher priority tasks to work and this library currently solves all of the needs that I personally have for it :)

Can confirm this issue. Setting isVisible={true} then replacing the route in navigator via an async function. Overlay does not disappear and isVisible. Even refreshing the JS via react native menu does not remove the overlay. Need to close the app via app manager or Xcode. Might have something to do with how the component deals with being unmounted?

Might you need to change this:

constructor(props) {
  super();
  // ... this.state or whatever
}

to this?

constructor(props) {
  super(props);
  // ... set state or whatever
}

@louuysison @Achang28 @travisyeh did you fix?

See #36 - we will be refactoring this soon to support Android/iOS and not have any issues here, there will no longer be the XCode integration needed

Similar problem here. I try to dynamically change components inside the overlay but while the component is getting destroyed, it is still drawn onto the screen. Any workaround?

Hey guys, I am facing the same issue. Its more than 6 years since this issue is opened. Is there any workaround?
