When I change the visible property of a listviewer to TRUE on Android Live Test, the listviewer component moves to the upper left corner, but remains visible. When I change it to false, it returns to the design time location.  
_Edit: I have confirmed that this is the same for labels, images, buttons, and maps. I stopped testing after that._

Hey @drted - thanks for flagging this, sorry for the delay following up with you.

One more question; Did you get a chance to check if this was limited to the Live Testing app on Android or does it also happen on an installed .apk file too?

Thanks.

I just rebuilt the example and the behavior is consistent for live test and the apk.

Here is a project link with just one button, one list and 3 blocks
