Hello PD4ML Support Team,
We’ve identified a rendering defect that is reproducible across multiple PD4ML v4 builds, including our current version. We’d appreciate your review.
PD4ML Versions Tested (issue reproduces identically on both):
– 4.0.21-20240926-0231
– 4.0.23fx2-20260908-0058Issue Summary:
When an element has border-radius, a background (solid color or linear-gradient), a partial border (e.g. border-bottom only), and overflow:hidden applied together, the border-radius and border render correctly, but the background does NOT paint at all. The element renders with a transparent/white interior instead of the specified background color or gradient.We have confirmed this is specific to the background property — border-radius clipping and border rendering both work correctly in isolation and in combination with each other; only the background fails when combined with them.
CSS (unmodified, as shipped):
.experience-card-poor {
border-radius: 14px;
background: linear-gradient(
to bottom,
#FEF7F8 48%,
#FFFFFF 100%
);
border-bottom: 4px solid #EE223B;
overflow: hidden;
}HTML:
<td width=”33.33%” style=”height:121px;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px” class=”experience-card-poor”>
Poor<span>35</span><span class=”f14-normal”>%</span>3309</td>
We also tested with a plain background-color instead of the gradient, and the result is identical — the issue is not specific to gradients, it affects background painting generally under this combination of properties.
Expected result: card renders with a rounded top, the specified background fill, and a colored bottom border (see attached reference/expected mockup).
Actual result: card renders with correct rounded corners and correct colored bottom border, but no background fill at all (see attached PDF output / screenshot).
Could you confirm whether this is a known issue, and if so, whether a fix is planned or already available in a later build?
Happy to provide the full HTML/CSS source, additional screenshots, or a minimal standalone reproduction file if useful.
Thank you,
