Using SfRotator to loop many SfImageEditors

I am using an SfRotator instance to loop between many SfImageEditors. The view loads up succesfully and am able to go to the different image editors by clicking on the thumbnails but am unable to use the path/pen tool to do some freehand writing on the image editor. Also with the text tool and the shape tool, I cant move around the text box or shape. Does SfRotator only work with images for Source or can it work with SfImageEditors as well?

Thank you for your reply. I was able to get it to work. I have another question: I would like to display text on the thumbnails instead of the SfImageEditor(s). How can I do that?

Hi Madhu Ganesh, 
  
Thanks for the update. 
 
Currently we have a support to display only the same copy of rotator item with small size in the Thumbnail view. Your requirement "Display text on a thumbnail instead of a SfImageEditor" has been achieved by adding ScrollView to the view layout and populating the desired view (Thumbnail view) in it with disabling your default SfRotator’s thumbnail view. 
 
We have prepared sample which can be downloaded from below link 
  
  
Screenshot: 
  
 
  
You can change the size of Thumbnail view by changing the HeightRequest & WidthRequest of Grid in Thumbnail.XAML page. 
  
Code Snippet[XAML]: 
  
Thumbnail.XAML: 
  
<Grid BackgroundColor="{Binding ThumbBorder}" HeightRequest="50"> 
            <Grid BackgroundColor="{Binding ColorField}" Padding="1"> 
               <Label HorizontalTextAlignment="Center" VerticalTextAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding Text,Converter={StaticResource converter}}" /> 
            </Grid> 
        </Grid> 
 
Please let us know if you have any other query.  
  
Regards, 
Hemalatha M.
