Hi there,
i just started to code with xamarin. How can I navigate from a ContentPage to a CarouselPage using onClick-event of a button? Here is my Code of this event:

private async void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e) { await Navigation.PushAsync(new P_Carousel(1)); return; }

and here my Code of "P_Carousel.xaml.cs"

`public P_Carousel (int index)
    {
        InitializeComponent ();

        Children.Add(new ContentPage { Content = new BoxView { Color = new Color(1, 0, 0) }, Title = "Page 1" });
        Children.Add(new ContentPage { Content = new BoxView { Color = new Color(0, 1, 0) }, Title = "Page 2" });
        Children.Add(new ContentPage { Content = new BoxView { Color = new Color(0, 0, 1) }, Title = "Page 3" });


    }`

I need to use DataTrigger in ListView ItemTemplate. I simplified everything till following example (trigger syntax copypasted from Xamarin samples git):

<ListView>
  <ListView.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
      <ViewCell>
        <ViewCell.View>
          <Entry x:Name="entry" Text="" Placeholder="required field" />

          <!-- referenced below in DataTrigger-->
          <Button x:Name="button" Text="Save"
                  FontSize="Large"
                  HorizontalOptions="Center">
            <Button.Triggers>
              <DataTrigger TargetType="Button"
                            Binding="{Binding Source={x:Reference entry},
                                          Path=Text.Length}"
                            Value="0">
                <Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="False" />
              </DataTrigger>
            </Button.Triggers>
          </Button>
        </ViewCell.View>
      </ViewCell>
    </DataTemplate>
  </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

On build I'm getting error

Easy dropshadow on stacklayout or other controls

$
0
0

Hi All,
I wanted to implement a dropshadow on a stacklayout, and after some mucking around I decided on this:
"Stick it in a Frame with no padding, a transparent outline, and a custom rendered less opaque shadow"

Here is the xaml:
<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml" xmlns:local="clr-namespace:myapp" x:Class="myapp.HomePage"> <local:ShadowFrame OutlineColor="Transparent" Padding="0,0,0,0" > <StackLayout HeightRequest="50" BackgroundColor="White"> <Label Text="A label for my stacklayout" /> </Stacklayout> </local:ShadowFrame> </Contentpage>

And the custom Frame class:
using Xamarin.Forms; namespace myapp { public class ShadowFrame : Frame { } }

And finally the custom renderer if you want to make the dropshadow lighter:
using myapp; using myapp.iOS; using Xamarin.Forms; using Xamarin.Forms.Platform.iOS; [assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(ShadowFrame), typeof(ShadowFrameRenderer))] namespace myapp.iOS { public class ShadowFrameRenderer : FrameRenderer { protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Frame> e) { base.OnElementChanged(e); Layer.ShadowOpacity = 0.2f; } } }
The result is attached as an image

Other properties of the Frame class can be changed as well, see the source code for the FrameRenderer here:
https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/blob/master/Xamarin.Forms.Platform.iOS/Renderers/FrameRenderer.cs
Thanks to Xamarin for open sourcing the Xamarin Forms Framework!

Hi Developers,

I am recently developing a Cross Xamarin.Forms app for Android and IOS.

What are you guys (or girls) using when programmaing push notifications these days, when starting "fresh"? Is Google Firebase a good solution, or are there easier way to do this.

My back-end is a web server that can hold tokens of devices, and send them a push messages if needed.

Thanks for your time!

Hello,

my app connects to a server that typically has a self signed certificate. I know that this is not perfect and I will show a warning to the user, but at least for now I need to able to accept all server certificates in my Xamarin.Forms project.

I use System.Net.Http.HttpClient and I have not found a universal solution.

ServerCertificateCustomValidationCallback and ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback are apparently not available for UWP.

How could I solve this issue to use Xamarin.Forms with an HttpClient that accepts all certificates?

I just started learning xamarin and I can't get a local image to display. I'm following a tutorial and looking at the documentation, but I"m still having issues. I don't see what I'm doing different from the documentation. I named the image an embedded resource in properties and I set the page as the default page in app.xaml.cs. All I get is a blank app with no image or anything.

    `   MainPage = new Images.LocalImage();`

I've been stuck on this for a few days now so any help is greatly appreciated.

I've tried running my UITests on AppCenter Tests for my iOS project, unfortunately I came across problem that can't seem to find anywhere on net.

Error: Cannot find test-cloud.exe, the path specified by "--uitest-tools-dir" was not found.

I give specific path to folder that test-cloud.exe is (file is there), yet I cannot run my tests, because this error gets thrown. I've message microsoft support but they are taking ages to reply. Has anyone come across similar problem?
