I'm looking for a HTML editor to that can be used in a Xamarin Forms Project. I need both an iOS and Android implementation. Another option is to try and shoehorn one of the existing open source projects in to a custom forms control. Anyone have any ideas?
There is the "TEditor": https://github.com/XAM-Consulting/TEditor
Never tried but it does look good (though i dont know if its still in active developement)

I'm looking for free themes to style my private Xamarin.Forms application which has a non commerical purpose. I tried Syncfusion already, but they let me to create a whole new application which I don't like.
I want to look my application a bit nicer than the standard look and feel.
Xamarin.Forms applications can respond to style changes dynamically at runtime by using the DynamicResource markup extension.

I'm writing an UWP app, in C# netcore. targeting min API 1809, with VS2019
I'm trying to add a ContentDialog that performs operations with storage files. And I want to add a FileExplorer control in that dialog. For selecting multiple files.
The Controls available in the XAML library, (and in the Community Toolkit Library) seems to lack the File Explorer Control. Like shown in the following image (from a very old software):
I want to add to my app something like in the image. A Visual Control for displaying files and folders, and allow to select them. Does it exists?
Please guys, I beg don't tell me to use the UWP TreeView Control because I think it sucks.
Thanks and regards!
UWP - Is there a File Explorer control?
UWP does not has exactly the same control like above screenshot, but it has TreeView control that could implement similar feature. Please check this document for more detail. And we also provide Xaml Control Gallery app that you could refer.
I already start using mvvmcross and i want to learn how to use a master/detail navigation. I can't find MvxMasterDetailPage described in this solution.
I have spent two days trying to start a master/detail navigation and nothing. I wouold like to do it with Xamarin Forms; i don't want to create any other presenter class but use the MvxFormsDroidMasterDetailPagePresenter for android. I had tried create a MvxFormsDroidMasterDetailPagePresenter in setup and also use MvxMasterDetailViewModel and nothing work.
Can some one please explain me or guide me to others options. Thanks.
Where can I find a working example that uses the library "Vuforia" in Xamarin.Forms portable (Droid+iOS) for WinPhone I know that does not work?
Or working converted library for specific platform?
From what I understand. Xamarin is for Custom Touches and UI. So when it comes to Vuforia, the only feature it is going to use is the augmentation.
Hence, if you want to use Xamarin for it's functionalities, you can do so but it will not interfere with the Vuforia virtual touch buttons.
I hope this is what you asked for. Examples this specific aren't available online, I would think.
Is there a way to change the image of the pins in Xamarin Forms Maps. I want to make the pin a custom image, if it has to be done natively, can someone give me a simple example of it. Thank you.
To anyone coming to the later, this is now well supported in Xamarin Forms.
In essence you need to create a custom map class in your PCL or shared code that inherits from the Xamarin Forms Map and then create a Custom Renderer in each of the platforms' projects.
Those custom renderers will be different for each platform, dealing with the specifics of rendering icons and any pop up information shown when you click on that pin for that particular platform. You are not obliged to create a custom renderer for all platforms, for any that you don't a normal map will be displayed.
This is all now really well documented in the Custom Renderers | Customizing a Map section of the Xamarin Forms Developers Guide. That documentation walks through creating a custom renderer for Android, iOS and UWP and explains the code needed in detail. There's a lot of it, so I won't reproduce it here. There is also an accompanying sample solution here.
One point worth noting is that if you are trying to reproduce that code in your own project you will also need to add the images in the various drawable folders in the ProjectName\Droid\Resources directory, and also the two axml files in the layout directory.
Apparently this is quite locked down and you have to look at custom renderers to achieve what you are needing.
There is a discussion about this on the following link:-
http://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/17916/customization-of-xamarin-forms-maps-pins
, with specific reference to a project at the following link which someone has implemented custom image pins from the Assets folder:-
https://github.com/paulpatarinski/ShouldIWashMyCar/blob/master/Android/Renderers/MapViewRenderer.cs
I haven't tried this yet, however this would probably be a good place to start when looking to customize map rendering.
This project might be helpful to you. raechten/BindableMapTest
From the description:
Small sample for binding a collection to a Xamarin Forms Maps pins
(valid until binding directly to the Pins property will be supported
by Xamarin Forms directly).
Includes custom and clickable pins.
It has Android and iOS implementations.
