I would like to know the scroll position of ViewCell inside the ListView.
Tried with various ways but always that gives me 0 value.
My intension is to get ViewCell's position in screen. In order to resolve this problem trying to get it's scroll position and then i will add this value to the Y value of ListView object.
Can anybody please help me in this case?
On
you have to make custom renderer of the ViewCell its kinda tricky to send the positions to pcl then we subscribe to the event in the view here's my code
PCL
public class SAChatViewCell : ViewCell
{
public delegate int[] IntEventHandler(object sender, float[] postion);
public event IntEventHandler OnCellItemLongClicked;
public event EventHandler OnCellItemTouched;
public void InvokeOnCellItemLongClicked(object sender, float[] e)
{
//send the current grid
OnCellItemLongClicked?.Invoke(sender, e);
}
public void InvokeOnCellItemTouched(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//send the current grid
OnCellItemTouched?.Invoke(sender, e);
}
}
Android Renderer
class SAChatViewCellRenderer : ViewCellRenderer
{
private bool selected;
ClickListener handler = new ClickListener();
static Android.Widget.ListView listView;
Xamarin.Forms.ListView listviewforms;
static SAChatViewCell cellElement;
Android.Views.View cellControl;
protected override Android.Views.View GetCellCore(Cell item, Android.Views.View convertView, Android.Views.ViewGroup parent, Android.Content.Context context)
{
try
{
if (cellControl == null)
{
cellControl = base.GetCellCore(item, convertView, parent, context);
}
cellElement = item as SAChatViewCell;
selected = false;
listviewforms = cellElement.View.Parent.Parent as Xamarin.Forms.ListView;
if (listviewforms == null)
{
return null;
}
if (listviewforms.BackgroundColor.ToAndroid() == Color.Transparent.ToAndroid())
{
cellControl.SetBackgroundColor(Color.White.ToAndroid());
}
else
{
cellControl.SetBackgroundColor(listviewforms.BackgroundColor.ToAndroid());
}
cellControl.SetOnLongClickListener(handler);
cellControl.SetOnTouchListener(handler);
return cellControl;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return null;
}
}
protected override void OnCellPropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs args)
{
base.OnCellPropertyChanged(sender, args);
if (args.PropertyName == "IsSelected")
{
// I had to create a property to track the selection because cellCore.Selected is always false.
// Toggle selection
selected = !selected;
var selectedBackground = cellElement.SelectedBackgroundColor.ToAndroid();
if (selected)
{
if (selectedBackground == Color.Transparent.ToAndroid())
{
cellControl.SetBackgroundColor(Color.White.ToAndroid());
return;
}
cellControl.SetBackgroundColor(selectedBackground);
}
else

{
