Can anyone think of a workaround for this until a fix is released? I need to show my app to the client pretty soon.

Hey @3rror404
We will update the info here once an official fix is applied. Meanwhile, to resolve your issue, perhaps you can avoid using the transform scale for your button and instead use another technique to resize the button. For example, you can use dummy grid-layout with columns="* , 2_, *" where you button is placed within the 2_ col. Or you can hardcore the button width based on it parent view using percentage!?

I got this working by wrapping the button in a StackLayout and scaling this instead. The inner button seems to be unaffected by the above bug in this situation.
