React Native - View disappears when position is absolute on Android

Question

Whenever I made the position style \'absolute\' for this view, it disappears. I have no idea why it is happening.

import React, { Component } from \'react\';
imp         


        

Answer 1

I solved mine by giving parent component a flex:

position:'relative',
flex:1

Just dropping it soo it could be helpful to people.
