I have a carouselview in my Xam.Forms project. I have also created 3 ContentViews (one for each DataTemplate). My template selector class looks like this
public class DashboardTemplateSelector : DataTemplateSelector
{
public DataTemplate QuickMessageTemplate { get; set; }
public DataTemplate DataViewTemplate { get; set; }
public DataTemplate LastUsedTemplate { get; set; }
public DashboardTemplateSelector()
{
QuickMessageTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(QuickMessage));
DataViewTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(DataView));
LastUsedTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(LastusedView));
}
protected override DataTemplate OnSelectTemplate(object item, BindableObject container)
{
var cv = (Frame)item;
DataTemplate rv = null;
switch(cv.ClassId)
{
case "data":
rv = DataViewTemplate;
break;
case "quick":
rv= QuickMessageTemplate;
break;
case "last":
rv = LastUsedTemplate;
break;
}
return rv;
}
Nothing out of the ordinary and I have the ClassId on each frame within the ContentView set to match the name in the switch.
When I build the app and run it, it looks fine but there is nothing in the CarouselView and a break point set in the OnSelectTemplate method (the first line) is never hit.
My XAML for the carouselview is this
<ContentPage.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<local:DashboardTemplateSelector x:Key="templateSelector" />
</ResourceDictionary>
</ContentPage.Resources>
<CarouselView Grid.Row="2" PeekAreaInsets="12" Margin="8" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource templateSelector}" HeightRequest="200" BackgroundColor="BlueViolet" />
The view shows (can see the background colour) but nothing in the view itself.
I've only checked this on a physical android device and not on iOS, but I'm guessing the same retult. My guess is that I can't cast to a Frame for the object, but I'm not sure.
To populate data, you have to set an ItemsSource via DataBinding or Code-Behind. Then your DataTemplateSelector will be hit with each item of the ItemsSource as object item. Please see the documentation here: https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/xamarin/xamarin-forms/user-interface/carouselview/layout
<CarouselView Grid.Row="2" PeekAreaInsets="12" Margin="8" ItemsSource="{Binding ViewsViewModels} ItemTemplate="{StaticResource templateSelector}" HeightRequest="200" BackgroundColor="BlueViolet" />
The item in OnSelectTemplate
is itemsource data. Change the item to container and use CarouselView
instead of Frame
. Do not forget to set the ClassId
of your CarouselView
.
The whold project for your reference.
Xaml:
<ContentPage.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<local:DashboardTemplateSelector x:Key="templateSelector" />
</ResourceDictionary>
</ContentPage.Resources>
<CarouselView
Grid.Row="2"
Margin="8"
ClassId="data"
HeightRequest="200"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource templateSelector}"
ItemsSource="{Binding infos}"
PeekAreaInsets="12" />
Code behind:
public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
public ObservableCollection<Info> infos { get; set; }
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
infos = new ObservableCollection<Info>()
{
new Info{ DataViewText="DataViewText1", LastusedViewText="LastusedViewText1", QuickMessageText="QuickMessageText1"},
new Info{ DataViewText="DataViewText2", LastusedViewText="LastusedViewText2", QuickMessageText="QuickMessageText2"},
new Info{ DataViewText="DataViewText3", LastusedViewText="LastusedViewText3", QuickMessageText="QuickMessageText3"},
new Info{ DataViewText="DataViewText4", LastusedViewText="LastusedViewText4", QuickMessageText="QuickMessageText4"},
};
this.BindingContext = this;
}
}
public class Info
{
public string QuickMessageText { get; set; }
public string DataViewText { get; set; }
public string LastusedViewText { get; set; }
}
QuickMessage, DataView and LastusedView is a contentview with label which binding a text.
QuickMessage:
<Label Text="{Binding QuickMessageText}" />
DataView:
<Label Text="{Binding DataViewText}" />
LastusedView:
<Label Text="{Binding LastusedViewText}" />
DashboardTemplateSelector:
public class DashboardTemplateSelector : DataTemplateSelector
{
public DataTemplate QuickMessageTemplate { get; set; }
public DataTemplate DataViewTemplate { get; set; }
public DataTemplate LastUsedTemplate { get; set; }
public DashboardTemplateSelector()
{
QuickMessageTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(QuickMessage));
DataViewTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(DataView));
LastUsedTemplate = new DataTemplate(typeof(LastusedView));
}
protected override DataTemplate OnSelectTemplate(object item, BindableObject container)
{
var cv = (CarouselView)container;
DataTemplate rv = null;
switch (cv.ClassId)
{
case "data":
rv = DataViewTemplate;
break;
case "quick":
rv = QuickMessageTemplate;
break;
case "last":
rv = LastUsedTemplate;
break;
}
return rv;
}
}
