Hi Luca,

 

Greetings from Syncfusion.

 

We would like to let you know that currently we are revamping our UG document of Native platforms (Xamarin.Android and Xamarin.iOS) SegmentedControl. Changes will be reflected in our Volume 1 Service Pack 1 2020 release which is scheduled to be rolled by end of January 2020.

 

Query : FontColor is not Working:

 

We were able to reproduce the same and currently we have a workaround to resolve the same by setting FontSize of SegmentedControl as per in below code snippet

 

Code Snippet [C#]:

protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

        {

            base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);

            SfSegmentedControl segmentedControl = new SfSegmentedControl(this);

            segmentedControl.LayoutParameters = new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MatchParent, 300);

            segmentedControl.SelectionTextColor = Color.Green;

            segmentedControl.FontColor = Color.Red;

            segmentedControl.FontSize = 15;

            List<SfSegmentItem> clothList = new List<SfSegmentItem>()

            {

                new SfSegmentItem(){Text = "Item 1"},

                new SfSegmentItem(){Text = "Item 2"}

            };

 

 

            segmentedControl.ItemsSource = clothList;

            segmentedControl.SegmentHeight = 60;

            segmentedControl.SelectionIndicatorSettings = new SelectionIndicatorSettings()

            {

                Position = SelectionIndicatorPosition.Bottom,

                StrokeThickness = 2

               

            };

            segmentedControl.VisibleSegmentsCount = 3;

            segmentedControl.DisplayMode = SegmentDisplayMode.Text;

            SetContentView(segmentedControl);

        }

 

Query : is it possible to unselect an item if i clck on it when it is selected?

 

Currently we don’t have a toggle option selection in SegmentedControl. Once SegmentedItem has been selected that selection on same item has been ignored.

 

Query: i need to be able to have no one item selected

 

If your requirement is to clear the entire the selection on segmented control then, it has been achieved by setting – 1 as SelectedIndex property of SegmentedControl.

 

Please check and let us know if you need any further assistance.

Hi,

We also have a need to clear the selected item when the item is clicked up.   Do you have any suggestion on how to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Scott
