I have a problem. I used the following code to create a Floating Action Button Menu: https://github.com/Polarts/CrossFAB
Now, I added it to my code like this:
<ContentPage.Content>
<AbsoluteLayout VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<ScrollView Orientation="Vertical" AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0,0,1,1"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All">
<StackLayout Orientation="Vertical">
<Label Text="Undone" TextColor="Black" FontSize="26" FontAttributes="Bold" Margin="10" />
</StackLayout>
</ScrollView>
<c:FloatingMenu Margin="0, 0, 10, 10" BGColor="Gray" OpenIcon="Share.png" CloseIcon="X.png"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0,0,1,1" AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All">
<c:FloatingButton x:Name="FB" BGColor="Blue" IconSrc="Facebook.png"/>
<c:FloatingButton x:Name="TW" BGColor="White" IconSrc="Twitter.png"/>
<c:FloatingButton x:Name="TB" BGColor="Navy" IconSrc="Tumblr.png"/>
</c:FloatingMenu>
</AbsoluteLayout>
</ContentPage.Content>
I used an AbsoluteLayout, because the FloatingMenu needs to be in the bottom right corner, but the problem is that right now, I can use the Floating Action Button, but the scroll of the ScrollView isn't working. When I put the FloatingMenu code above the ScrollView, the FloatingMenu stops working and I can only scroll.
How can I use both items for clicks?
When you set the AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0,0,1,1" and AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All" on a view, you're saying that you want you want the view to start in the top left corner and you want it to take up the full width and height of the view.
Since you set the LayoutBounds on both your views to this, you essentially have two views that take up the entire screen stacked on top of each other. You can test this out by adding a background color to either of the views and see what happens. Because of this, whichever view you put second is getting the touches, because it's the one on top.
If you want your FloatingMenu to be in the bottom right hand corner, you need to fix the layout bounds on that view to reflect that.
Something like this might get you started:
<c:FloatingMenu
Margin="0, 0, 10, 10"
BGColor="Gray"
OpenIcon="Share.png"
CloseIcon="X.png"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds=".95,.95,50,50"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="PositionProportional">
This says that we want to put the view 95% over and 95% down the screen with a set width and height of 50. We say PositionProportional because we want the position, the first 2 numbers to be read as a proportion, not as absolute values.
You may also need to adjust the layout of the Floating Menu view. I suspect you're doing something like EndAndExpand for your Vertical and Horiztonal options that may not work like you expect when you fix the absolute layout.
Make sure to also take a look at the documentation on AbsoluteLayout.
PositionProportional, indicates that the x and y values will be
interpreted as proportional, while the size values are interpreted as
absolute.
A position of (0,0) puts the child in the upper-left corner, while a position of (1,1) puts the child in the lower-right corner, and a position of (0.5,0.5) centers the child within the AbsoluteLayout.
So you could try to change like below:
<ContentPage.Content>
<AbsoluteLayout VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<ScrollView Orientation="Vertical" AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0,0,1,1"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All">
<StackLayout Orientation="Vertical">
<Label Text="Undone" TextColor="Black" FontSize="26" FontAttributes="Bold" Margin="10" />
</StackLayout>
</ScrollView>
<c:FloatingMenu Margin="0, 0, 10, 10" BGColor="Gray" OpenIcon="Share.png" CloseIcon="X.png"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="1,1" AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="PositionProportional">
<c:FloatingButton x:Name="FB" BGColor="Blue" IconSrc="Facebook.png"/>
<c:FloatingButton x:Name="TW" BGColor="White" IconSrc="Twitter.png"/>
<c:FloatingButton x:Name="TB" BGColor="Navy" IconSrc="Tumblr.png"/>
</c:FloatingMenu>
</AbsoluteLayout>
</ContentPage.Content>
How I can change size icon? I want to enlarge because the icon is too small. In the original the icon has a correct size but in the application is too small
<StackLayout>
<local:AnimatedButton BackgroundColor="#ffffff"
BorderColor="#ffffff"
BorderRadius="25"
WidthRequest="50"
HeightRequest="50"
Command="{Binding CenterMyLocationCommand}">
<Button.Image>
<FileImageSource File="googlemap_view_center_button.png" />
</Button.Image>
</local:AnimatedButton>
</StackLayout>
Try to add/change WidthRequest and HeightRequest (also check: Width and Height) attributes
I'm using Xamarin.Forms and I wanted to put some controls inside a TableView. One of them is a SearchBar, which is inside a ViewCell.
I tested this one in my Android phone and it doesn't allow me to input from keyboard, I tap on it and it doesn't bring keyboard.
Perhaps is bug or I am using the wrong Cell type for a SearchBar.
<ContentPage.Content>
...
<TableView>
<TableRoot>
<TableSection Title="Cliente">
<ViewCell>
<SearchBar x:Name="txtBusquedaCliente" Placeholder="Seleccione..." />
</ViewCell>
<SwitchCell x:Name="swFormato" Text="Shor Format: " ></SwitchCell>
</TableSection>
...
</TableView>
...
</ContentPage.Content>
Code:
<ScrollView>
<StackLayout VerticalOptions="Start">
<local:myListPicker x:Name="LP"></local:myListPicker>
<Label Text="Push me"></Label>
<Label Text="DOWN"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</ScrollView>
I added four Items to the ListPicker, when I tap on it, it opens, but only the first one can be seen, since it does not "push away" the two labels under it.
It looks like the ListPicker is "behind" the two labels, why is that and how to fix?
Additinol Info:
ExpansionMode equals ExpansionMode.ExpansionAllowed.
With 5 or more Items in the List it gets fullscreen (which is totally OK)
Im new to NS and I have a project. I want a Button floating inside a ScrollView.
<ScrollView>
<StackLayout orientation="vertical">
<AbsoluteLayout >
<Button top="0" left="0" right="0" text="Test" style="font-size: 10; margin:5; " />
</AbsoluteLayout>
<Label text="Trending Now: " cssClass="trending-label" />
<Repeater items="{{ categories }}">
<Repeater.itemTemplate>
.
.
.
</Repeater.itemTemplate>
</Repeater>
</StackLayout>
</ScrollView>
But its not working. The Button is also scrolling. I want the Button to be floating on ScrollView. Thank you.
The reason why the button is scrolling together with the other items is that everything is situated in a ScrollView. In order to have only the Label and the Repeater scrolling, the Button should be placed outside of it.
Another thing I have noticed is that on the Button, simultaneously are applied left and right alignment, which might cause a problem.
I made a possible implementation of the float button, which you can check here.
