setFloatingButtonEdge is working not correctly on Android about instabug-react-native HOT 1 CLOSED

Hello @PEvgeniya! Thanks for reporting this issue.

This issue is that the values passed to BugReporting.setFloatingButtonEdge aren't normalized from React Native values to appropriate values to pass to the native side so the way the number passed is treated differs both Android and iOS.

On Android, it expects the value to be in pixel size (px), not in layout size (dp), and React Native uses layout size by default, so the value returned from Dimensions needs to get scaled to be in pixel size which you can achieve using the PixelRatio API as below:

const height = Dimensions.get('window').height;

BugReporting.setFloatingButtonEdge(
  FloatingButtonPosition.right,
  PixelRatio.getPixelSizeForLayoutSize(height * 0.8),
);

On iOS, it expects the value in layout size which is the default in React Native so you can pass the value from Dimensions as is.

The complete code should look something like this (I'm using Platform to conditionally normalize the value on Android):

const height = Dimensions.get('window').height;
const offset = 0.8 * height;

BugReporting.setFloatingButtonEdge(
  FloatingButtonPosition.right,
  Platform.OS === 'android' ? PixelRatio.getPixelSizeForLayoutSize(offset) : offset,
);

We already have it on our radar to make such APIs behave the same on both iOS and Android without the need for manual normalization from the developer's end, but this is how you can achieve it for now. 🙏🏼

I'll close the issue for now but feel free to reopen it if you're still facing any issues with it.
