App shifted towards right in landscape RTL mode
When the device is in landscape with RTL mode, the app got shifted towards right. Because of which all the touch points and areas are shifted which affects app behaviour. Attaching screenshot for the Microsoft's Edge app. I am trying these things on emulator, please let me know the same bug is there on real device or not. Thank you.

UI concept question: Can the detail page of a master/detail pattern become the new master page?
Hi folks, I've a Xamarin.Forms master/detail page pattern applied to my Surface Duo app. Current scenario On the left side are mutliple selectable list items, on the right, the detail of the select item will be shown. New scenario The user should be able to take notes of each detail item. That requires a new mutli line text area which is related to the detail's content. The questions Whats the best ui / ux pattern to update the app's canvas for this new scenario on a dual screen device? Idea 1: The detail page become the new master and shifts to the left while on the right side the note taking page will appear. This becomes really hard in page transitions and animation and it will break the learned user behavior of "left master, right detail" Idea 2: The screens of the Surface Duo are huge compared to e.g. an iPhone screen. That's why I could split the detail page in two vertical segments. The top one is still the content page and the bottom one will become the note taking part Idea 3: Do not use the the dual screen feature at all and present it modally above the master page. That would enable the user to see the detail content on the correct right side. But this would display features of the detail page on the master page's side. Thanks for your opinions!
