Hello Xaramin Devs. I'm a complete Xamarin/XAML newbie.
Is it possible to use a template XAML file for the children of a CarouselPage? For example, suppose I want to create a slide show. The only difference between the pages in the slide show is the actual image that is displayed.
I cannot figure out how to change the image name for the children from within the CarouselPage XAML. Here's my starting point (which doesn't work):
For the slide show template pages (CarouselPage children):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Image x:Name="SlideImage" />
Code behind file:
namespace HelloWorld
{
public partial class SlidshowPage : ContentPage
{
public Image ImageControl
{
get { return SlideImage; }
set { SlideImage = value; }
}
}
}
For the CarouselPage:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CarouselPage.Children>
<local:SlideshowPage>
<local:SlideShowPage.ImageControl Source="image_one.png" />
</local:SlideshowPage>
<local:SlideshowPage>
<local:SlideshowPage.ImageControl Source="image_two.png" />
</local:SlideshowPage>
</CarouselPage.Children>
Thanks for any help and advice.
