SfPopupLayout_XForms_GettingStarted

About the sample

This repository contains the sample to get started with the Syncfusion's SfPopupLayout control for Xamarin.Forms.

Create a new BlankApp (Xamarin.Forms.NET Standard) application in Xamarin Studio or Visual Studio for Xamarin.Forms. Import the SfPopupLayout control namespace Syncfusion.SfPopupLayout.XForms. The SfPopupLayout can be displayed by the following cases.

###Displaying popup when the SfPopupLayout is set as root view The SfPopupLayout can be displayed by making it as base view or content view of the main page. For the first case, set the view over which the SfPopupLayout should be displayed as the content of the SfPopupLayout by using the SfPopupLayout.Content property.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             xmlns:syncfusion="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.SfPopupLayout.XForms;assembly=Syncfusion.SfPopupLayout.XForms"
             xmlns:local="clr-namespace:GettingStarted;assembly=GettingStarted"
             x:Class="GettingStarted.MainPage">
   <sfPopup:SfPopupLayout x:Name="popupLayout">
   <sfPopup:SfPopupLayout.Content>
     <StackLayout x:Name="mainLayout">
       <Button x:Name="clickToShowPopup" Text="ClickToShowPopup" 
               VerticalOptions="Start" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
                Clicked="ClickToShowPopup_Clicked"/>
     </StackLayout>
    </sfPopup:SfPopupLayout.Content>
  </sfPopup:SfPopupLayout>
</ContentPage>

using Syncfusion.XForms.PopupLayout;
using Xamarin.Forms;

namespace GettingStarted
{
    public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
    {
        public MainPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void ClickToShowPopup_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            popupLayout.Show();
        }
    }
}

Displaying popup on the go

You can continue to keep your view as the content view of the main page and still display popup over your view by simply calling the SfPopupLayout.Show method.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             xmlns:local="clr-namespace:GettingStarted"
             x:Class="GettingStarted.MainPage" 
             Padding="0,40,0,0">
     <StackLayout x:Name="mainLayout">
       <Button x:Name="clickToShowPopup" Text="ClickToShowPopup" 
               VerticalOptions="Start" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
               Clicked="ClickToShowPopup_Clicked" />
     </StackLayout>
</ContentPage>

using Syncfusion.XForms.PopupLayout;
using Xamarin.Forms;

namespace GettingStarted
{
    public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
    {
        SfPopupLayout popupLayout;

        public MainPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            popupLayout = new SfPopupLayout();
        }

        private void ClickToShowPopup_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            popupLayout.Show();
        }
    }
}
