I am developing an iOS native app using xamarin. My app contains an UIImageView and a "Remove" button associated with that image for preview purpose. These both ImageView and Remove button is initially hidden. I have another button for selecting picture. so once, user select a photo, it will be display in ImageView and Remove button also appear dynamically. I achieve this through MvvmCross command binding.
The Problem is, when the PreviewImage and button are hidden, then also the screen occupies the blank space. I want it to be collapse, as there is nothing at that time.
So can anyone knows how to handle such situation? I am newby in iOS and xamarin.

I'm building my first Universal Windows Platform (UWP) App and am trying to implement the popular "Hamburger Menu" using the SplitView class.
Inspired by many samples, the items hosted on the SplitView pane are re-styled RadioButton controls, with a vertical highlight-rectangle, an icon and a text. The appearance is similar to that of the Groove app.
I'm now trying to implement navigation and selection using the keyboard, and this now bring a little focus-rect around the items in the SplitView pane. However, since the pane clips its contents when its DisplayMode is either CompactInline or CompactOverlay, the focus rectangle is also clipped, which is not the behavior a user would expect.
Please, can anyone advise on how to property display the focus rectangle in this situation ?
Just an idea, what if you set the width of all radio button's to be same as the CompactPaneLength property of SplitView. The default is 48 DIPs.
I am new to Xamarin IOS and I have a problem with creating nested layouts in IOS as like in Android(some text controls and a list view) . I added a tableview but not sure how to add some text and image controls in a view and add the tableview below the text and image controls. Also I am using ViewPager in Android and is there an equivalent control that I can use in IOS?
Yes, you should use UIScrollView and enable paggin there. The only issue that you need always to set the ContentSize for it, to make it scroll properly. So you should set the common Size of inner content.
You should check out monotouch.dialog for rapid tableview development. Once you get the hang of it, it makes creating tables a lot easier.
I am using the home button of the main Activity of my IM app to allow the user to change their availability status. My app is using ActionBarSherlock, which falls back to the native implementation where supported.
However, the size of the tappable area is inconsistent between Android releases:
On Android 4.2.0 and before (including the compatibility library), only the icon is tappable:
On Android 4.2.1+, icon and activity name are tappable:
How can I make the tappable area consistently include icon and activity title on all versions of Android?
I am using ActionBarCompat (and you should probably update, if you haven't already), so this may not behave exactly the same. I wanted the full title to be clickable for using the navigation drawer. For some reason, using a custom logo instead of the text makes the whole thing automatically clickable, where only the icon could be clicked before:
final ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
actionBar.setDisplayShowTitleEnabled(false);
actionBar.setDisplayUseLogoEnabled(true);
actionBar.setLogo(R.drawable.im_title);
I don't know if it's possible to trigger that change while still using text with the default icon, but the setDisplay... methods and flags may be a good place to start looking.
Am I thick or what? I have a view controller, and within that there is a UIWebView. When I run the app, the WebView covers the UIToolbar at the bottom and the UIButtons there, and so you cannot navigate away from the WebView. I cannot figure out how to change the WebView size or behaviour.
Unfortunately I do not have sufficient rep to post screenshots. The WebView displays an html file with text. The WebView partially covers the status bar at the top and completely covers the taskbar at the bottom. I can touch and drag the view up to see the taskbar and buttons at the bottom, but cannot use them.
I am using storyboard to build the app, and have done similar apps before without issue (in iOS6) but iOS7 appears to have thrown me a curveball.
I cannot see how to change the size in Xcode - or should I be looking at the html code in the file that the WebView is calling?
Oddly enough this is no longer an issue, I have not made any changes to code or config, and the only thing different is I upgraded my version of X-Code
I have attached a toolbar with a UITextField and UIButton to the keyboard when it becomes the first responder via the user taping inside the textfield
textField.inputAccessoryView = theToolbar;
Problem is, the toolbar disappears when the keyboard is dismissed, thus preventing any further input.
Any ideas on how to make the toolbar go back to the bottom of the screen rather than off it completely?
I'm thinking a delegate method might help but Im really not too sure. It seems once the inputAccessoryView always the inputAccessoryView :(
Cheers
The input accessory view is automatically dismissed with the input view (the keyboard, in this case). Generally you do not want to have an input accessory view in your view hierarchy. Instead, if you want your toolbar to scroll up when the keyboard is shown, you should follow the guidelines for Managing the Keyboard.
You could try using an additional toolbar that is offscreen as the inputAccessoryView, which could "fake" the appearance of what you are trying to do. Alternatively, have you tried adding the toolbar back to the bottom of the screen using
[self.view addSubview:theToolbar];
when the keyboard reaches the bottom of the screen? You can use keyboard notifications for this.
