MvvmCross: PictureChooser Plugin - Preview screen Button Text - xamarin.ios

Is there a way to change the text in iOS and Android for the two buttons which showing up inside the Picture Preview screen after you take a photo using MvvmCross PictureChooser plugin?
I have searched on it but I can't seam to find anything.
Thank you!

There's no way provided by MvvmCross to do this.
The source code to the picture chooser is in https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/tree/v3.1/Plugins/Cirrious/PictureChooser
On Droid, this uses the standard ActionGetContent intent - https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/blob/v3.1/Plugins/Cirrious/PictureChooser/Cirrious.MvvmCross.Plugins.PictureChooser.Droid/MvxPictureChooserTask.cs#L37
On iOS, this uses the standard UIImagePickerController - https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/blob/v3.1/Plugins/Cirrious/PictureChooser/Cirrious.MvvmCross.Plugins.PictureChooser.Touch/MvxImagePickerTask.cs
So to customise these, you'll need to replace this code or to look to see if there are any "standard" ways on each platform.

Android Responsive design using android studio

Hi all !!
I'm newbie to android, Can i get any solutions to make my android app layout that fits in all screens.

Thanks,
Create the following folders in res and add the xml in that
res/layout-small
res/layout-normal
res/layout-large
res/layout-xlarge
And open it from studio layout and make changes.
this link helps you.
The Android resource system gives you the tools to provide alternate resources based on the available width, height, or smallest width — important measurements that serve as the basis for choosing when to change our UI based on the space available.
Width and Breakpoints
Width is perhaps the most important dimension when it comes to choosing when to change your UI. This is because width is the basis for the breakpoint system.
A very good example is here

Winrt Xaml Toolkit does not allow me to add new controls

I'd like to add the imagebutton control to my windows store app, however when I install the Winrt Xaml Toolkit using NuGet it does not allow me (using the intellisense) to add any new controls. All I'd like to do is be able to specify an image for an appBarButton when hovered and an image when pressed. I find it slightly ridiculous that Microsoft has made it so difficult. Any help is MUCH appreciated.
it's funny how I can spend hours on programming with no success, then the next morning find the answer in 5 minutes. Here's the answer I needed, was found at
How can i change background image of a button when hover or click in XAML for Windows 8?
I needed to add this xml namespace at the top of the page...
xmlns:controls="using:WinRTXamlToolkit.Controls"
Then this works.
<controls:ImageButton HorizonalAlignment="Center"
NormalStateImageSource="normal.png"
HoverStateImageSource="hover.png"
PressedStateImageSource="pressed.png" />
Hope this helps someone else who has the same question.

Teechart on Monotouch: where is the documentation?

Downloaded eval for Teechart for Monotouch iOS. Looks very promising. Could not find documentation though except windows help chm. Are there any docs available on the web?
Also running an example on iPad discovered that pan and zoom are extremely slow unless set to Auto.
chart3.Chart.Aspect.ZoomScrollStyle = Steema.TeeChart.Drawing.Aspect.ZoomScrollStyles.Auto;
Why?

Yes, you can download on our web site throught this link.
Also running an example on iPad discovered that pan and zoom are extremely slow unless set to Auto.
Why?
This was the reason we introduced the ZoomScrollStyles property, setting it to Auto, the chart will use the standard zoom and scroll gestures used for iOS (for most common 2D chart styles), meanwhile setting it to Manual, the chart will make use of the default zoom and scroll functionality based on the TeeChart for NET product.
