Setting a background image?

[l d jones]

I have a common theme in my app where all pages have a custom BG image. I've just implemented the SfNavigationDrawer in my app and it looks to work quite well, but its overlaying a opaque background that is obscuring my image and thus my app branding/themeing.

I've tried setting the background to transparent:

<navigationdrawer:SfNavigationDrawer x:Name="navigationDrawer" DrawerWidth="200" BackgroundColor="Transparent" DrawerHeaderHeight="200">

But this hasn't helped.

Is there anything I can do to make the control fully transparent or as a fall back use a background image?

Thanks

Hi, 

Thanks for this. However I think the issue you describe is not the one I raised. My issue pertained to a lack of transparency or background image support. 

Thanks

Hi,

There is an answer for this? I also try to put BackgroundColor=Transparent an it doesn't show me the menu drawer content with Transparent.

Is there a possibility to make drawer content show a blur background?

Thanks,

Sorin

Query: How to set blur background.

We can set background image on the Content View. So the user can use a blur image at the background of the NavigationDrawer content view to make the background blur.

Please let us know if you have any concern about this.
