if (Control != null)
{
if (Element.LineBreakMode == LineBreakMode.TailTruncation)
{
Control.AdjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = false; //for purists

You could binding true or false for the IsExpanded property to indicate that the Expander is expanded or collapsed.
I make a simple example for your reference.

PropertyChanged Event doesn't reflect new Image.Source on first run

I'm working on mobile app that kinda simulates how to build a Desktop Computer by dragging and dropping an image in order. I work with DropGestureRecognizer with AllowDrop set to True for the Drop Zone Image controls and DragGestureRecognizer with CanDrag set to True for the Drag Image Objects.
The idea is the Drag Image Objects will get dragged and dropped to a Drop Zone Image Control and if they dropped the correct Drag Image, the Drop Zone will accept this as the Image.Source and another Drop Zone will be stacked in front of it to work with the next Desktop Computer component. Otherwise, it would get rejected and the Image.Source will be set to empty or null.
However, i'm encountering a weird issue that, on the first incorrect image dragged, the Image.Source gets reset to empty or null by property but on the actual UI, it doesn't. On the succeeding EventHandler execution, it does get reset. I have a TapGestureRecognizer on the Drop Zone to check if there is an Image.Source set or not.
I'm sorry if my explanation is a bit confusing because English is not my native language and i'm having a hard time explaining it. So please refer to below example in GIF and my code:

Current Build demo in GIF: https://imgur.com/a/oLeM9DV (i can't directly link the GIF because its too big)
Because when you trigger the PropertyChanged event, the drag and drop action has already been completed and the image has been automatically set to the target.
We could make that judgment as soon as we drag it over the target with DragOver event.Then make an action when the drag and drop is complete with Drop event.
For example,change the codes of the Image (imgCaseDropZone):
<Image x:Name="imgCaseDropZone"
RelativeLayout.XConstraint="0"
RelativeLayout.YConstraint="0"
RelativeLayout.WidthConstraint="400"
RelativeLayout.HeightConstraint="400"
BackgroundColor="LightGray"
>
<Image.GestureRecognizers>
<DropGestureRecognizer AllowDrop="{Binding CaseIsVisible}" DragOver="CaseDropZone_DragOver" Drop="CaseDropZone_Drop"/>
<TapGestureRecognizer Tapped="TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped" />
</Image.GestureRecognizers>
</Image>
in the code behind:
private void CaseDropZone_DragOver(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
FileImageSource file = (FileImageSource)e.Data.Image;
string name = file.File;
if (name != "img_assembly_case.png")
{
e.Data.Image = string.Empty; // set the value string.Empty when drag it over the target,then it will fill the empty source to the image.
}
}
private async void CaseDropZone_Drop(object sender, DropEventArgs e)
{
var ctx = (BindingContext as AssemblyViewModel);
FileImageSource source = (FileImageSource)await e.Data.GetImageAsync();
string name = source.File;
if (name == "img_assembly_case.png")
{
ctx.CaseIsVisible = false;
imgMotherboardDropZone.IsVisible = true;
}
else
{
Global.Score.PCAssembly -= 5;
DisplayAlert($"Score: {Global.Score.PCAssembly}", "The pre-requisite component for this part has not yet been placed.", "OK");
}
}
Other Images are modified like this.

Xamarin Datapicker how customize it to be an calender image

I'm new to Xamarin and I would like to know how can I set the DatePicker to be an image for example a calender instead of being text with a line under it (default).
The goal is to have an entry and next to it a calender image to have it's behaviour like a DatePicker like in the image below:
I have the following code but i have DatePicker commented. I tried to set isVisible = 'false' and have the image on it's position but it didn't work.
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="360" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Frame Style="{StaticResource FrameStyle}">
<controls:CustomEntry x:Name="DataDocEntry" Grid.Column="0" Text="{Binding Date, StringFormat='{0:d/M/yy}', Source={x:Reference MainDatePicker}}" IsEnabled="false" Style="{StaticResource EntryStyle}" />
</Frame>
<!--<DatePicker x:Name="MainDatePicker" Grid.Column="1" MinimumDate="1/1/2018" MaximumDate="12/31/2030" HeightRequest="30" />-->
<Image VerticalOptions="Center" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalOptions="End" Source="icalendar.png" HeightRequest="30" WidthRequest="30">
<Image.GestureRecognizers>
<TapGestureRecognizer Tapped="Calendario_Clicked" NumberOfTapsRequired="1" />
</Image.GestureRecognizers>
</Image>
</Grid>
I also created a DatePickerRenderer to customize the DatePicker to try to set it's background as image but wasn't sucessful either.
DatePickerRenderer.cs
using Android.Content;
using FormsApp.Droid;
using Xamarin.Forms;
using Xamarin.Forms.Platform.Android;
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(DatePicker), typeof(MyRenderer))]
namespace FormsApp.Droid
{
class MyRenderer : DatePickerRenderer
{
public MyRenderer(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<DatePicker> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
{
//Control.Background = "icalendar.png";
}
}
}
}
Best regards
You could hide the DataPicker and use the Focus in the click event of image.
xaml:
<StackLayout Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalOptions="StartAndExpand">
<Entry x:Name="entry" />
<Image
HeightRequest="20"
HorizontalOptions="EndAndExpand"
Source="calendar.png"
WidthRequest="20">
<Image.GestureRecognizers>
<TapGestureRecognizer Tapped="TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped" />
</Image.GestureRecognizers>
</Image>
<DatePicker
x:Name="dataPicker"
IsVisible="false"
Unfocused="dataPicker_Unfocused" />
</StackLayout>
Code behind:
private void dataPicker_Unfocused(object sender, FocusEventArgs e)
{
entry.Text =dataPicker.Date.ToString();
}
private void TapGestureRecognizer_Tapped(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
dataPicker.Focus();
}

i want to pass a parameter in a xaml button

hello i want to pass the Label with the button in xaml
its a list view and each row has her own Label and i want update each row by the label
<Label Grid.Column="2"
Grid.Row="1"
Text="{Binding Label}"
FontSize="20"
TextColor="Black"
Margin="0,10,0,0"
FontFamily="{StaticResource font}"
HorizontalOptions="Start"
VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<ImageButton Grid.Column="2"
Grid.Row="0"
HorizontalOptions="End"
VerticalOptions="End"
Source="plus.png"
Margin="9"
clicked ="update"
BackgroundColor="Transparent"/>
and the function in the class
public void update (object sender , EventArgs e)
{
update by the Label
}
i know that's there is something with commands but i'm beginner and i don't know how to use it i tried this and i didn't work.
Command="{Binding Path=BindingContext.UpdateCommand, Source={x:Reference Name=listViewEvent}}"
CommandParameter="{Binding Label}"
and the function is this
UpdateCommand = new Command<string>(async (args) => {
String Label = args as string;
DisplayAlert("update", "update", "OK");
_ = Navigation.PushAsync(new AddReminder(Label));
});
and the alert didn't show
please i need help
you don't need to "pass" the Label
<ImageButton Grid.Column="2" Cilcked="update" ... />
protected void update(object sender, EventArgs a)
{
var btn = (ImageButton)sender;
// MyClassName should be the name of your model class
// this will get you the object referenced by the selected row
var item = (MyClassName)btn.BindingContext;
// then you can reference any property of item
// ie, item.Label, etc
}
<Label x:Name="myLabel"
Grid.Column="2"
Grid.Row="1"
Text="{Binding Label}"
FontSize="20"
TextColor="Black"
Margin="0,10,0,0"
FontFamily="{StaticResource font}"
HorizontalOptions="Start"
VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<ImageButton Grid.Column="2"
Grid.Row="0"
HorizontalOptions="End"
VerticalOptions="End"
Source="plus.png"
Margin="9"
clicked ="update"
BackgroundColor="Transparent"
CommandParameter={x:Reference myLabel}/>
And then in code behind you can get the label
protected void update(object sender, EventArgs a)
{
var btn = (ImageButton)sender;
var label = btn.CommandParameter as Xamarin.Forms.Label;
}

How to display a ListView and Other Controls in a ScrollView?

As I use a complex ViewCell DataTemplate, I did not consider to add my items in the code behind file as Buttons instead of a ListView.
Hope someone can show me a Xaml or CS pattern to achieve my goal.
Please only suggest a solution which works on iOS and Android!
Thanks

This is XAML code
<ScrollView Padding="2">
<StackLayout HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<Grid HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<StackLayout>
<ScrollView Orientation="Horizontal">
<ListView BackgroundColor="Transparent" ItemsSource="{Binding UsersList}" SeparatorVisibility="None" x:Name="YourListView" RowHeight="50">
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ViewCell>
<StackLayout BackgroundColor="Transparent" Padding="5">
<Button Text="{Binding UserName}" WidthRequest="115" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" TextColor="White" BackgroundColor="#4b76c4" FontAttributes="Bold" FontSize="20" FontFamily="Avenir Book"/>
</StackLayout>
</ViewCell>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>
</ScrollView>
</StackLayout>
</Grid>
</StackLayout>
</ScrollView>
and .cs file you need set BindingContext
BindingContext = new YourViewModel();
Solution:
As Rodrigo E suggested I download the latest Xamarin Evolve App 2016. After digging through the code I adjusted/simplified the FeedPage.xaml in the solution to that:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ContentPage
xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:XamarinEvolve.Clients.UI;assembly=XamarinEvolve.Clients.UI"
xmlns:pull="clr-namespace:Refractored.XamForms.PullToRefresh;assembly=Refractored.XamForms.PullToRefresh"
x:Class="XamarinEvolve.Clients.UI.FeedPage"
x:Name="FeedPage"
Title="Evolve Feed"
Icon="tab_feed.png"
BackgroundColor="{DynamicResource WindowBackgroundTable}">
<pull:PullToRefreshLayout
IsPullToRefreshEnabled="True"
RefreshCommand="{Binding RefreshCommand}"
IsRefreshing="{Binding IsBusy}">
<local:AlwaysScrollView
HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<StackLayout>
<StackLayout Spacing="0">
<local:NonScrollableListView
x:Name="ListViewSessions"
ItemsSource="{Binding Sessions}">
<local:NonScrollableListView.RowHeight>
<OnPlatform x:TypeArguments="x:Int32" Android="50" iOS="50" WinPhone="50"/>
</local:NonScrollableListView.RowHeight>
<local:NonScrollableListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ViewCell>
<Button Text="{Binding Title}" BackgroundColor="Black" TextColor="Green" />
</ViewCell>
</DataTemplate>
</local:NonScrollableListView.ItemTemplate>
</local:NonScrollableListView>
</StackLayout>
<StackLayout Padding="0" Spacing="0" BackgroundColor="Green">
<Button Text="OTHER" BackgroundColor="Blue" TextColor="White" />
<Button Text="OTHER" BackgroundColor="Blue" TextColor="White" />
<Button Text="OTHER" BackgroundColor="Blue" TextColor="White" />
<Button Text="OTHER" BackgroundColor="Blue" TextColor="White" />
<Button Text="OTHER" BackgroundColor="Blue" TextColor="White" />
<Button Text="OTHER" BackgroundColor="Blue" TextColor="White" />
</StackLayout>
</StackLayout>
</local:AlwaysScrollView>
</pull:PullToRefreshLayout>
There are a few things to do:
In the FeedViewModel.cs I added that code for a quick test:
async Task ExecuteLoadSessionsCommandAsync()
{
if (LoadingSessions)
return;
LoadingSessions = true;
try
{
NoSessions = false;
Sessions.Clear();
OnPropertyChanged("Sessions");
#if DEBUG
await Task.Delay(1000);
#endif
var sessions = await StoreManager.SessionStore.GetNextSessions();
var testSessions = new List<Session>();
testSessions.Add(new Session
{
Title = "TEST"
});
testSessions.Add(new Session
{
Title = "TEST"
});
testSessions.Add(new Session
{
Title = "TEST"
});
sessions = testSessions;
if(sessions != null)
Sessions.AddRange(sessions);
NoSessions = Sessions.Count == 0;
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
ex.Data["method"] = "ExecuteLoadSessionsCommandAsync";
Logger.Report(ex);
NoSessions = true;
}
finally
{
LoadingSessions = false;
}
}
You have to reference the package Refractored.XamForms.PullToRefresh to get the Pull-to-Refresh behavor.
This is in that namespace referenced: xmlns:pull="clr-namespace:Refractored.XamForms.PullToRefresh;assembly=Refractored.XamForms.PullToRefresh"
You have to Copy the AlwaysScrollView , NonScrollableListView to your PCL library.
refercene it with: xmlns:local="clr-namespace:"
In your iOS Project add that custom ListView Renderer:
public class NonScrollableListViewRenderer : ListViewRenderer
{
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
Control.ScrollEnabled = false;
}
}
public class AlwaysScrollViewRenderer : ScrollViewRenderer
{
public static void Initialize()
{
var test = DateTime.UtcNow;
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(VisualElementChangedEventArgs e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
this.AlwaysBounceVertical = true;
}
}
See file: Renderer
Put that CollectionChanged Handler in your Code-behind file:
ViewModel.Sessions.CollectionChanged += (sender, e) =>
{
var adjust = Device.OS != TargetPlatform.Android ? 1 : -ViewModel.Sessions.Count + 1;
ListViewSessions.HeightRequest = (ViewModel.Sessions.Count * ListViewSessions.RowHeight) - adjust;
};
