I don't understand what's wrong with this. The URL is fine and I do see the image if I manually put the URL in the src field. But when using a viewModel or even setting it like on lIne 16, the image doesn't appear. This is in a modal if that makes a difference.

XML

<Page shownModally="onShowModally" xmlns="http://schemas.nativescript.org/tns.xsd" xmlns:ui="@triniwiz/nativescript-image-zoom">
  <StackLayout>
  	<ui:ImageZoom  src="{{ image }}" id="imageEl" loaded="onLoaded" aspectFill="stretch" width="200" height="200" />
  </StackLayout>
</Page>

JS

import { fromObject } from '@nativescript/core';

var page,
	viewModel = new fromObject({
		image: null,
	}),
	closeCallback;

export function onShowModally(args) {
	page = args.object;
	closeCallback = args.closeCallback;
	viewModel.image = args.context[0].image;
        page.bindingContext = viewModel;

  let imageEl = page.getViewById('imageEl');
  imageEl.src = viewModel.image;
}

export function onLoaded(){
	console.log('image loaded'); //works
}
export function closeModal(){
	closeCallback();
}

Start with the modal XML and its JavaScript handler, especially onShowModally, the image binding, and the ImageZoom view. Reproduce on an Android 11 device with the listed NativeScript versions and compare direct src assignment with the view-model value; done means the image renders in both cases.
