One way to do this is to have a transparent ContentView covering the screen. Add a GestureRecognizer to the ContentView which, when clicked, will hide the PopupControl .

When the PopupControl is not showing, set ContentView.InputTransparent to true so clicks do not register, or remove the ContentView from the screen completely.

When you show the PopupControl , set ContentView.InputTransparent to false or add in the ContentView if you removed it.
