Hi Dirk, 

  

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

  

Query 1: Is there any plans for implementing a ColorPicker in Xamarin.Forms? 

  

We have checked your requirement from our side. We have created a color picker sample using SfRadialMenu. Please find the sample from below link. 

  

Sample: http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/137373/ze/ColorPicker1647276010  

  

Could you please check whether this will fulfil your requirement. 

  

Query 2: Is there any plans for implementing a Tooltip in Xamarin.Forms? 

  

You can use the SfPopupLayout control to display as a tool tip.
Click https://help.syncfusion.com/xamarin/sfpopuplayout/getting-started  to refer the UG of SfPopupLayout. 

  

To display popup as the tool tip, you need to set the SfPopupLayout.PopupView.HeightRequest and SfPopupLayout.PopupView.WidthRequest and Call SfPopupLayout.ShowRelativeToView(relativeView,relativePosition)  or ShowPopupAtTouchPoint() or Show(x,y).  

  

Please find the code snippet below to display popup:

 

//MainPage.xaml  

<ContentPage.Content>  

    <sfPopup:SfPopupLayout x:Name="popupLayout">  

        <sfPopup:SfPopupLayout.PopupView>  

            <sfPopup:PopupView ShowHeader="False" ShowFooter="False" HeightRequest="100"WidthRequest="100">  

                <sfPopup:PopupView.ContentTemplate>  

                    <DataTemplate>  

                        <!-- Content to be displayed in popup -->  

                        <Label Text="Tool tip" BackgroundColor="White"TextColor="Black"/>  

                    </DataTemplate>  

                </sfPopup:PopupView.ContentTemplate>  

            </sfPopup:PopupView>  

        </sfPopup:SfPopupLayout.PopupView>  

        <sfPopup:SfPopupLayout.Content>  

            <!--View on which the popup should be displayed-->  

            <StackLayout>  

                <Button x:Name="showPopupButton" Text="Click to show popup" />  

            </StackLayout>  

        </sfPopup:SfPopupLayout.Content>  

    </sfPopup:SfPopupLayout>  

</ContentPage.Content>  

  

// MainPage.xaml.cs  

  

showPopupButton.Clicked += ShowPopupButton_Clicked;  

  

private void ShowPopupButton_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)  

{  

     // Displays popup to the bottom of the button.  

     popupLayout.ShowRelativeToView(sender as View, RelativePosition.AlignBottom);  

     // Displays popup at touch point  

     //popupLayout.ShowAtTouchPoint();  

     // Displays popup at given x and y position  

     //popupLayout.Show(50, 50);  

}  

  

We have prepared a sample to display popup as the tool tip, you can download the same from the below link:
