I don't know why, but if I change my flyout to "Locked "in Desktop In cannot see anything

User's image

my pages are there, and I can navigate but I cannot see.

  FlyoutBehavior="{OnIdiom Desktop=Locked,
                           Phone=Flyout}"
  
  Shell.NavBarIsVisible="{OnIdiom Phone=true,
                                  Desktop=false}"
  Shell.TabBarIsVisible="False">
  <Shell.FlyoutFooterTemplate>
      <DataTemplate>
          <Button
              Margin="20"
              Command="{Binding SignOutCommand}"
              CornerRadius="8"
              Text="Log out" />
      </DataTemplate>
  </Shell.FlyoutFooterTemplate>


this is the helper I use for create the menu.

public static class FlyoutHelper {
    public static void CreateFlyoutHeader(DemyUser? updatedUser) {
        IAppService appService = new AppService();
        Shell.Current.FlyoutHeader = new FlyoutHeader(
            new FlyoutHeaderViewModel(
                              $"{updatedUser!.Firstname} {updatedUser.Lastname}"!,
                              updatedUser.DemyId!,
                              updatedUser.Email!,
                              updatedUser.CurrentRole!,
                              appService
            ));
    }
    public static void CreateFlyoutMenu(string role) {
        switch (role) {
            case nameof(Roles.Student):
                CreateStudentItems();
                break;
            case nameof(Roles.Teacher):
                CreateTeacherItems();
                break;
            case nameof(Roles.Coordinator):
                CreateCoordintorItems();
                break;
        }
    }
    private static void CreateStudentItems() {
        var studentItems = new FlyoutItem() {
            Title = "Welcome",
            Route = nameof(StudentDashboardPage),
            FlyoutDisplayOptions = FlyoutDisplayOptions.AsMultipleItems,
            Items = {

            new ShellContent {
                Title = "Register student",
                ContentTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(RegisterStudentPage)),
            }
        }
        };
        if (!Shell.Current.Items.Contains(CoordinatorItems)) {

        }
    }
    public static void GetDefaultMenuItems() {
        var defaultItems = new List<ShellContent> {
             new() { ContentTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(StartupPage)),
                Route = nameof(StartupPage), FlyoutItemIsVisible = false },
            new() { ContentTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(LoginPage)),
                Route = nameof(LoginPage), FlyoutItemIsVisible = false },
            new() { ContentTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(NoInternetPage)),
                Route = nameof(NoInternetPage), FlyoutItemIsVisible = false },
            new() { ContentTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(RoleSelectionPage)),
                Route = nameof(RoleSelectionPage), FlyoutItemIsVisible = false }
        };
        Shell.Current.Items.Clear();
        foreach (var item in defaultItems) {
            Shell.Current.Items.Add(item);
        }

The strange part is that is I change the behavior to flyout.

and open it, I can see my option.

look

<Style

    TargetType="Shell">
    <Setter Property="Shell.BackgroundColor" Value="{AppThemeBinding Light={StaticResource Primary}, Dark={StaticResource OffBlack}}" />
    <Setter Property="Shell.ForegroundColor" Value="{OnPlatform WinUI={StaticResource Primary}, Default={StaticResource White}}" />
    <Setter Property="Shell.TitleColor" Value="{AppThemeBinding Light={StaticResource Black}, Dark={StaticResource SecondaryDarkText}}" />

</Style>

My desktop in on light theme, so the title shoud be black

    public AppShell(AppShellViewModel appShellViewModel) {
        InitializeComponent();
        //SetupNavigationView();
        BindingContext = appShellViewModel;
    }
    protected override void OnAppearing() {
        FlyoutHelper.GetDefaultMenuItems();
        base.OnAppearing();
    }
}
//    private void SetupNavigationView() {
//#if WINDOWS
//        Loaded += delegate {
//            Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls.NavigationView navigationView = (Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls.NavigationView)flyout.Handler!.PlatformView!;
//            navigationView.PaneDisplayMode = Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls.NavigationViewPaneDisplayMode.Left;
//        };
//    }

If I manipulate the window like resizing or dragging, the text will return.

    Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I Fix it.

    What I did is that in the appshell.xmal, I disable the flyout or desktop, and in the Startup, when I call the NavigationHelper, I did this.

      public static async Task NavigatoToDashboardRoleAsync(DemyUser demyUser) {
            var pageNage = $"{demyUser.CurrentRole}DashboardPage";
            FlyoutHelper.GetDefaultMenuItems();
            FlyoutHelper.CreateFlyoutHeader(demyUser);
            FlyoutHelper.CreateFlyoutMenu(demyUser?.CurrentRole!);
            if (DeviceInfo.Platform == DevicePlatform.MacCatalyst
                || DeviceInfo.Platform == DevicePlatform.WinUI) {
                Shell.Current.FlyoutIsPresented = true;
                Shell.Current.FlyoutBehavior = FlyoutBehavior.Locked;
            }
            await Shell.Current.GoToAsync($"//{pageNage}", true);
        } 
    
    
    

    So, I think that I wasn't giving my flyout enough time to update.

    My question is, if that is the case, why I was able to navigate to all my pages?
