title: Xamarin - Items not loading or missing from 'Resources' folder in Release only
body: <p>I have developed a <code>Xamarin.Forms</code> application using Visual Studio 2019. This targets iOS and Android. I have currently being developing in <code>Debug</code> mode.</p>
  
  <p>The application contains many <code>svg</code> images which are loaded using the <code>FFImageLoading.Svg.Forms</code> plugin as follows: </p>
  
  <pre><code>SvgCachedImage imageSearch = new SvgCachedImage
  {
      Source = "resource://AppName.Resources.add_red.svg",
      WidthRequest = 25,
  };
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>These are all saved under the <code>AppName/Resources</code> folder. Each item's properties are as follows:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/XYZst.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/XYZst.png" alt="resource properties"></a></p>
  
  <p>This works perfectly in the Android simulator, on an Android Phone and also on an iPhone simulator, all in <code>Debug</code> mode.</p>
  
  <p>I have now tried to create an Android APK in <code>Release</code> mode. </p>
  
  <p>The APK installs onto the Android phone. The application loads without any error, but all of the items in the <code>Resources</code> folder are not displayed? All other elements are displayed.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Code shrinker: None</li>
  <li>Linking: Sdk and User Assemblies</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Any ideas or suggestions on what could be causing this?</p>
  
  <p>Versions:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Xamarin.Essentials (1.3.1)</li>
  <li>Xamarin.Forms (4.3.0.819712-pre2)</li>
  <li>Xamarin.FFImageLoading.Svg.Forms (2.4.11.982)</li>
  </ul>
