Top Navigation Drawer in Xamarin Shell example

I am using the SfSchedule control for the calendaring functionality of my app. My app is using App.Shell. I would like to have a top Drawer that allows the user to toggle from Day View, WeekView, and MonthView. I can't find any sample of SfNavigationDrawer used in a Shell project. Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi Tim,

Greetings from Syncfusion.

We have prepared a sample using the Shell Page to navigate the month, day and week views in schedule using the navigation drawer. Please have the sample from the below link,

Sample Link: https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/ze/TestSfApp_d48ef1c1383624654

Please check with the sample and if the sample differs from the requirement please provide a pictorial representation of the same which will be helpful for us to provide a better solution. 
 
Thanks, 
Rachel.

Thank you so much! This was exactly what I needed.

Thanks again for the sample! Just what I needed - but now have a new challenge.

In the sample you provided, the SfSchedule control was added to the NavigationDrawer's ContentView in code behind. How to I setup the AppointmentMapping in code behind? I also want to bind a OnSelected to have a button for adding new Appointments. How do I set the values for SfSchedule.SelectionView from code behind?

For example, trying to map required fields, I get an exception when I try to run this:
schedule.AppintmentMapping.Colormapping = "color";   

Sorry for the newbie questions.
