Xamarin Forms Android search bar remove underline - xamarin.forms

Hopefully this doesn't get dinged, I've looked at other posts and nothing seems to work.
Code:
<controls:SearchPageSearchBar Grid.Column="1" Scale=".8" Margin="0,0,0,0" x:Name="searchBar"
BackgroundColor="White"
SearchCommandParameter="{Binding Text, Source={x:Reference searchBar}}"
Placeholder="Search" >
</controls:SearchPageSearchBar>
public class SearchPageSearchBarDroid : SearchBarRenderer
{
public SearchPageSearchBarDroid(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<SearchBar> args)
{
base.OnElementChanged(args);
var plateId = Resources.GetIdentifier("android:id/search_plate", null, null);
var plate = Control.FindViewById(plateId);
plate.SetBackgroundColor(Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
}
}
Tried all solutions here too

[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(SearchPageSearchBar), typeof(SearchPageSearchBarDroid))]
i test your code and it works,have you missed the above line in your SearchPageSearchBarDroid ?
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(SearchPageSearchBar), typeof(SearchPageSearchBarDroid))]
namespace App18.Droid
{
class SearchPageSearchBarDroid:SearchBarRenderer
{
public SearchPageSearchBarDroid(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<SearchBar> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
var plateId = Resources.GetIdentifier("android:id/search_plate", null, null);
var plate = Control.FindViewById(plateId);
plate.SetBackgroundColor(Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
}
}

Automatic height of the webview

I have a xamarin forms application and I have inserted a webview inside the layout stack, the problem is that I have multiple pages and in each page the length of the content is different from the others.
I wanted to ask if there was a way to have the webview automatically adjust the height.
I have read other similar questions on the site, but I admit they seemed confusing to me.
This is my code xaml
<ContentPage.Content>
<StackLayout Padding="0" VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" Spacing="0" BackgroundColor="White">
<WebView
x:Name="wvSite"
VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"
HeightRequest="2300" />
</StackLayout>
</ContentPage.Content>
You could reset the webview height according to the content height when loading page finished via custom renderer.
Android:
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(WebView), typeof(CustomWebViewRenderer))]
namespace App1.Droid
{
public class CustomWebViewRenderer : WebViewRenderer
{
public CustomWebViewRenderer(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Xamarin.Forms.WebView> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
Control.SetWebViewClient(new CustomWebViewClient(e.NewElement));
}
}
internal class CustomWebViewClient : Android.Webkit.WebViewClient
{
private WebView webView;
public CustomWebViewClient(WebView webView)
{
this.webView = webView;
}
public async override void OnPageFinished(Android.Webkit.WebView view, string url)
{
if (webView != null)
{
int i = 10;
while (view.ContentHeight == 0 && i-- > 0)
await System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Delay(100);
webView.HeightRequest = view.ContentHeight;
}
base.OnPageFinished(view, url);
}
}
}
iOS:
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(WebView),
typeof(CustomWebviewRenderer))]
namespace App1.iOS
{
public class CustomWebviewRenderer : WkWebViewRenderer
{
protected override void OnElementChanged(VisualElementChangedEventArgs e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
NavigationDelegate = new CustomWebviewNavigationDelegate();
}
}
internal class CustomWebviewNavigationDelegate : WKNavigationDelegate
{
[Export("webview:didFinishNavigation:")]
public override void DidFinishNavigation(WKWebView webView, WKNavigation navigation)
{
//base.DidFinishNavigation(webView, navigation);
webView.Frame = new CoreGraphics.CGRect(0, 0, webView.ScrollView.ContentSize.Width, webView.ScrollView.ContentSize.Height);
}
}
}

Color in custom MaterialEntryRenderer

Why this line
Control.BackgroundTintList = ColorStateList.ValueOf(Android.Graphics.Color.Green);
is working in a custom EntryRenderer in Android (xamarin forms) and not in a custom MaterialEntryRenderer?
I want to change only the underline color of the entry in material and not the underline color and the placeholder text color too.

Image with rounded corners

I am trying to get an image in the shape of rectangle with rounded Cornes. I have tried to use nugget fftransformations and frame. So far I am not getting the result I want. Using the nugget turns the image into square no matter what size I give to it. Using frame for some reason doesn't actually round the corners. enter image description here
<StackLayout VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand">
<ffimageloading:CachedImage VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand"
WidthRequest="530" HeightRequest="334"
DownsampleToViewSize="true"

<Image Source = "http://loremflickr.com/530/330/nature?filename=simple.jpg" Aspect="AspectFill" />
</Frame>
</Grid>
</StackLayout>
Some time ago I needed corner effects on other controls. And it applies to image too.
All you need is to create Effect:
public class RoundCornersEffect : RoutingEffect
{
public RoundCornersEffect() : base($"MySuperApp.{nameof(RoundCornersEffect)}")
{
}
public static readonly BindableProperty CornerRadiusProperty =
BindableProperty.CreateAttached(
"CornerRadius",
typeof(int),
typeof(RoundCornersEffect),
0,
propertyChanged: OnCornerRadiusChanged);
public static int GetCornerRadius(BindableObject view) =>
(int)view.GetValue(CornerRadiusProperty);
public static void SetCornerRadius(BindableObject view, int value) =>
view.SetValue(CornerRadiusProperty, value);
private static void OnCornerRadiusChanged(BindableObject bindable, object oldValue, object newValue)
{
if (!(bindable is View view))
return;
var cornerRadius = (int)newValue;
var effect = view.Effects.OfType<RoundCornersEffect>().FirstOrDefault();
if (cornerRadius > 0 && effect == null)
view.Effects.Add(new RoundCornersEffect());
if (cornerRadius == 0 && effect != null)
view.Effects.Remove(effect);
}
}
And implement it on both platforms:
IOS:
public class RoundCornersEffectIOS : PlatformEffect
{
protected override void OnAttached()
{
try
{
PrepareContainer();
SetCornerRadius();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.WriteLine(e);
}
}
protected override void OnDetached()
{
try
{
Container.Layer.CornerRadius = new nfloat(0);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.WriteLine(e);
}
}
protected override void OnElementPropertyChanged(PropertyChangedEventArgs args)
{
if (args.PropertyName == RoundCornersEffect.CornerRadiusProperty.PropertyName)
SetCornerRadius();
}
private void PrepareContainer()
{
Container.ClipsToBounds = true;
Container.Layer.AllowsEdgeAntialiasing = true;
Container.Layer.EdgeAntialiasingMask = CAEdgeAntialiasingMask.All;
}
private void SetCornerRadius()
{
var cornerRadius = RoundCornersEffect.GetCornerRadius(Element);
Container.Layer.CornerRadius = new nfloat(cornerRadius);
}
}
Droid:
public class RoundCornersEffectDroid : PlatformEffect
{
private Android.Views.View View => Control ?? Container;
protected override void OnAttached()
{
try
{
PrepareContainer();
SetCornerRadius();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.WriteLine(e);
}
}
protected override void OnDetached()
{
try
{
View.OutlineProvider = ViewOutlineProvider.Background;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.WriteLine(e);
}
}
protected override void OnElementPropertyChanged(PropertyChangedEventArgs args)
{
if (args.PropertyName == RoundCornersEffect.CornerRadiusProperty.PropertyName)
SetCornerRadius();
}
private void PrepareContainer()
{
View.ClipToOutline = true;
}
private void SetCornerRadius()
{
var cornerRadius = RoundCornersEffect.GetCornerRadius(Element) * GetDensity();
View.OutlineProvider = new RoundedOutlineProvider(cornerRadius);
}
private static double GetDensity() =>
DeviceDisplay.MainDisplayInfo.Density;
private class RoundedOutlineProvider : ViewOutlineProvider
{
private readonly double _radius;
public RoundedOutlineProvider(double radius)
{
_radius = radius;
}
public override void GetOutline(Android.Views.View view, Outline outline)
{
outline?.SetRoundRect(0, 0, view.Width, view.Height, (float)_radius);
}
}
}
Then you can use it in control:
<Image Source="mylogo.png" VerticalOptions="Center" Aspect="AspectFit" myeffects:RoundCornersEffect.CornerRadius="5"/>

The underline of entry cannot removed

I want to make a entry that without underline. I tried two solutions but both can not work well.
Control.Background = null;
it is not go well and I take another solution:
GradientDrawable gd = new GradientDrawable();
gd.SetColor(global::Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
Control.SetBackground(gd);
this.Control.SetRawInputType(Android.Text.InputTypes.TextFlagNoSuggestions);
Control.SetHintTextColor(ColorStateList.ValueOf(global::Android.Graphics.Color.White));
It also not go well in android but work well in ios.I do not understand why.
You can try add xml styling named editText_bg.xml,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<solid android:color="#FFFFFF" />
<stroke
android:width="1dp"
android:color="#2f6699" />
<corners
android:radius="10dp"
/>
</shape>
And you can give this to entry as background resource :
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(CustomEntry), typeof(AndroidCustomEntryRenderer))]
namespace XXX.Droid.Renderer
{
public class AndroidCustomEntryRenderer : EntryRenderer
{
public AndroidCustomEntryRenderer(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
{
Control.SetBackgroundColor(global::Android.Graphics.Color.White);
Control.SetBackgroundResource(Resource.Drawable.edittext_bg);
}
}
}
}
Try my implementation(working for Android and ios). PlainEntry is empty class inherited from Xamarin.Forms.Entry
Android
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(PlainEntry), typeof(PlainEntryRenderer))]
namespace UR.Droid.Renderers
{
public class PlainEntryRenderer : EntryRenderer
{
public PlainEntryRenderer(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
{
this.Control.
SetBackgroundColor(global::Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
Control.SetPadding(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
}
}
}
iOS
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(PlainEntry), typeof(PlainEntryRenderer))]
namespace UR.iOS.Renderer
{
class PlainEntryRenderer: EntryRenderer
{
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
{
Control.BorderStyle = UITextBorderStyle.None;
Control.BackgroundColor = UIColor.FromRGBA(0, 0, 0, 0);
}
}
}
}
If you want to use renderers for all Xamarin.Forms.Entry like not the than specify:
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(Xamarin.Forms.Entry), typeof(PlainEntryRenderer))]

Create a custom renderer in your Android project:
public class CustomEntryRenderer : EntryRenderer {
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e) {
base.OnElementChanged(e);
Control.SetBackgroundColor(Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
}
}
Then in your XAML:
<ContentPage xmlns:xyz="clr-namespace:PclNamespaceForCustomControls">
...
<xyz:CustomEntry Placeholder="Lorem ipsum" />
</ContentPage>
See Microsoft docs for more info: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/app-fundamentals/custom-renderer/entry
You can use custom renderers to achieve entry and editor underline removal.
I am using the below code to apply these feature for all entries and editors in the project and it is working with Xamarin Forms 4.8+

protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
{
Control.Background = null;
Control.SetBackgroundColor(Android.Graphics.Color.Transparent);
}
}
}
}
Editor
