boxShadow + overflow hidden combination affecting pointer event box-none and scale transform. (#52413)
Summary: This issue is only reproducible with combination of `overflow: hidden` and `boxShadow` i.e. when a [container view](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/2ce7eab5f998788ffa8346b63cc4901d026456ba/packages/react-native/React/Fabric/Mounting/ComponentViews/View/RCTViewComponentView.mm#L799) is added to the hierarchy. ### Case 1: ```jsx <Pressable pointerEvents="box-none" style={{ width: 300, height: 300, boxShadow: "0 0 100px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)", overflow: "hidden" }} onPress={() => { alert("Tapped"); }} /> ``` Here the view has `box-none` but it will still trigger the press event because this [line](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/2ce7eab5f998788ffa8346b63cc4901d026456ba/packages/react-native/React/Fabric/Mounting/ComponentViews/View/RCTViewComponentView.mm#L658) returns the `_containerView` as `hitView` and this condition gets [fullfilled](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/2ce7eab5f998788ffa8346b63cc4901d026456ba/packages/react-native/React/Fabric/Mounting/ComponentViews/View/RCTViewComponentView.mm#L676) (since it is not self). To fix this issue we should iterate on `self.currentContainerView.subviews`. ### Case 2: Transform scale clipping child view. ```jsx <Pressable pointerEvents="box-none" style={{ width: 300, height: 300, overflow: "hidden", transform: [ { scale: 0.5 }, ], boxShadow: "0 0 100px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)", }} onPress={() => { alert("parent view"); }} > <Pressable style={{ position: "absolute", bottom: 0, right: 0, backgroundColor: "blue", height: 50, width: 100, }} onPress={() => { alert("child view"); }} > <Text>Press me</Text> </Pressable> </Pressable>; ``` The above style hides the child view on iOS whereas it is visible on android. | iOS | Android | |---|---| | <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/14713ec9-1ae7-4425-9348-946d507188e8" width="200px" /> | <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0f6e2368-037d-4b03-8a85-8a08f1578ff6" width="200px" /> | This happens because `containerView` uses `self.frame` property which gets mutated due to scale transform. So containerView becomes `actualSize * scale * scale` instead of `actualSize * scale` and ends up clipping child views because of overflow hidden. Please checkout the layout hierarchy in the below screenshot. To fix it we need to use `self.bounds` instead of `self.frame` when setting the frame for container. <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9ce41756-f41f-4782-bfc9-b0c281f314b7" width="300px" /> ## Changelog: [IOS] [FIXED] - boxShadow + overflow hidden combination interfering with pointerEvents and transform scale. <!-- Help reviewers and the release process by writing your own changelog entry.

React Native
Learn once, write anywhere:
Build mobile apps with React.
Getting Started · Learn the Basics · Showcase · Contribute · Community · Support
React Native brings React's declarative UI framework to iOS and Android. With React Native, you use native UI controls and have full access to the native platform.
- Declarative. React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Declarative views make your code more predictable and easier to debug.
- Component-Based. Build encapsulated components that manage their state, then compose them to make complex UIs.
- Developer Velocity. See local changes in seconds. Changes to JavaScript code can be live reloaded without rebuilding the native app.
- Portability. Reuse code across iOS, Android, and other platforms.
React Native is developed and supported by many companies and individual core contributors. Find out more in our ecosystem overview.

📋 Requirements
React Native apps may target iOS 15.1 and Android 7.0 (API 24) or newer. You may use Windows, macOS, or Linux as your development operating system, though building and running iOS apps is limited to macOS. Tools like Expo can be used to work around this.
🎉 Building your first React Native app
Follow the Getting Started guide. The recommended way to install React Native depends on your project. Here you can find short guides for the most common scenarios:
📖 Documentation
The full documentation for React Native can be found on our website.
The React Native documentation discusses components, APIs, and topics that are specific to React Native. For further documentation on the React API that is shared between React Native and React DOM, refer to the React documentation.
The source for the React Native documentation and website is hosted on a separate repository, @facebook/react-native-website.
🚀 Upgrading
Upgrading to new versions of React Native may give you access to more APIs, views, developer tools, and other goodies. See the Upgrading Guide for instructions.
React Native releases are discussed in this discussion repo.
