Hi Gerald, thanks for the video, the control looks great. I would be interested to use this for swiping between pages, and to have hooks for appearing/appeared/disappearing/disappeared on each tab, so I an register / deregister for view updates and keep the memory profile low. On that point, lazy loading of tabs would be a real plus too. Cheers!
Hi Gerald. I'm trying to change the format of the letters of tabs because it appears always in upper case. Is there something like TextTransform="none" in the tabViewItem?
Hi Gerald, is there a way to customize the content of the tab itself, e.g. layout horizontally with icon and text, or, add a stacklayout to the tab (not the page the tab will show, but the tab itself) to allow any content at all?
He Deakin! I don't think we can do that at the moment... Looking at the source we just have an icon and text for now... Also have a look at the samples in our sample app: github.com/xamarin/XamarinCommunityToolkit/tree/main/samples/XCT.Sample/Pages/Views/TabView This is definitely a good request though! If you could spare the time please see if a request is already somewhere in the issues and if not open a new issue with as much detail as you can possibly think of. Thanks!
Hi. Thanks for the tutorial. I thought I would try this and whist it is OK for my iOS build it is not OK for my MacOS build. The MacOS is showing a button bar at the top but nothing is showing in the content of the tab items.
Not sure how much of this is supported on macOS, but please open an issue on the repository so we can track it and have a look. I'll be honest and say that macOS is probably not our highest priority right now, but who knows what happens :)

Hi Gerald. Great Video, exactly what I have been looking for) My Question might not specificly apply to this video however I'll ask anyway. How do I change the color of the pulldown tool bar (no sure if this is the correct terminology) on the very top of the Android screen?
Great nice feature,.. but I'm struggle with its is only supported with contentview only (if I'm not wrong), I can not handle the right way to implement MVVM Binding, etc.. because I want to separate viewmodel on each tab content view, and I can not use Page.
I totally understand! Right now you would either have to have one view model for all the views in there _or_ you can set the BindingContext on each of those views to still separate it. A BindingContext is not specific to a page
Hi Antonio! Sorry reply took a while :) So what you're asking is if there is a difference in performance when using Shell with ContentTemplates or TabView with ContentViews? At this time I think you'll be better of with ContentTemplate and Shell. Those are lazy loaded I think, usually all templates are, while with the TabView they are not. :)
Hello, thanks for the video, but i have one question: is it possible to put inside the tabViewItem a complete contentpage which then has it's own Viewmodel? so for example Thanks in advance!
Thanks for another great video! With Shell, I can click on a tab and then tap into subsequent NavigationPages while still in the context of that tab. Is this possible with XCT TabView?
Errr, not sure! With TabView you don't push pages in there though, you have to work with views in there. But not entirely sure on what you're looking for here, sorry :) And thank you so much for becoming a member!
Good video. Can we use this Tabview like ViewPager? What I mean was there is static view at the top of the ContentPage, then after that the TabView which I want to swipe. Problem is it works on Android but not in iOS.
I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean, sorry. Maybe for this scenario the CarouselView is a better fit? ua-cam.com/video/y0X15M_Acdc/v-deo.html

Nice work! Does the tab view always take up the entire page? Is it possible to have something else on the page, either above or below? What I'me trying to accomplish is a form with a map showing a location, and just below it is a section for entering the location. I want to give the user a choice of several different ways of specifying a location such as current, address, geo coordinates, etc. And then more content below the tab view such as Save and Cancel Buttons. It is this section that I am thinking of having as a TabView. Is this possible?
As always, this is an amazing video. I am waiting for it to accept contentPages as content, so the Xaml can be cleaner and compact. I am, although, struggling in Android as the tabViewItem text is always uppercase. I added the textAllCaps property with value false, in styles.xml but the text is still upper case. Do you know if this is a known issue or if there is a workaround?
For the uppercase, you can create your own template, have a look at this sample: github.com/xamarin/XamarinCommunityToolkit/blob/main/samples/XCT.Sample/Pages/Views/TabView/CustomTabsPage.xaml For the ContentPages, I wouldn't wait for it. It might take a while or not come at all. You can still have your views in separate XAML files too to clean up your XAML :) And thank you for the kind words!
Hey Gerald! can you please tell me how to put a separate content page into a tabview item .... For example I have a Content Page named "SomeContentView" and I want to display this in a tabview item like this . Is it possible ? If yes then how ?
Another great video Gerald 👍. I've been experimenting with using TabView as using Shell with Tabs I found some limitations. On experimenting with the TabView I think I have found another limitation. I see a flicker when moving from a TabViewItem containing a XF Map to any other TabView. It is fine moving from a tab to the tab containing the XF Map. Only happens when "IsSwipeEnabled" and "IsTabTransitionEnabled" are False. Is this perhaps a bug? Or does anyone know how to work around it. I seem to becoming stuck at every road I venture down with XF lately ☹

@@jfversluis dear sir, there is no such tutorial in UA-cam and everyone need to know how to deal with widgets in xamarin... So it will be very promoting as well as helpful. Kindly arrange to make a complete video on this... Please sir...
I’m not a big user of widgets myself, and therefore I don’t have very much interest in them or used them. I understand you need it. I have it on my list, but that list is very long with other things that also don’t have tutorials on UA-cam and I will probably do those first. I don’t make fulltime videos, this is something I do in my spare time and I love doing it, but that also means I have to make choices. I hope you understand!
For certain things to work correctly changes that are only available in Xamarin.Forms 5 is needed. I think the question should be: why can’t you update to 5 😉
@@jfversluis For me it is showing but the size is very small, font size is not working for me. Sent you a screenshot in DM in twitter. If you please reply, that would be of great help.
Very cool. Thank you very much. :-) I did your barcode scanner tutorial before, and tried to combine it with this tutorial. I put the "ZXingScannerView" inside the tabbed "StackLayout". Unfortunatly, I get after the camera permission acception the error "Java.Lang.NullPointerException: 'Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean android.content.Context.isUiContext()' on a null object reference'" Do you maybe know how I can fix that error? EDIT: If I comment out the "ZXingScannerView" the tab app did work without an issue. I also tried it with the latest 3.1.0 beta 2 ZXing. EDIT2: I just verified that it only happens if I put the ZXing inside the "TabViewItem.Content". Both work on their own, but not combined.

Still waiting for your cross device widget implementation tutorial.
I don’t think I will get to this anytime soon, sorry
@@jfversluis dear sir, there is no such tutorial in UA-cam and everyone need to know how to deal with widgets in xamarin... So it will be very promoting as well as helpful. Kindly arrange to make a complete video on this... Please sir...
I’m not a big user of widgets myself, and therefore I don’t have very much interest in them or used them. I understand you need it. I have it on my list, but that list is very long with other things that also don’t have tutorials on UA-cam and I will probably do those first. I don’t make fulltime videos, this is something I do in my spare time and I love doing it, but that also means I have to make choices. I hope you understand!
Nice
It’s cool, right?
Great ❤
TabView is going to be awesome for developers!
why doesn't it support Xamarin Forms 4.0?
For certain things to work correctly changes that are only available in Xamarin.Forms 5 is needed. I think the question should be: why can’t you update to 5 😉
@@jfversluis for the same problem
There are some packages in my project that are incompatible with xamarin 5
@@jfversluis but I agree, I have to update/replace those packages
Which ones are those?
everything is fine but the icons doesn't work for me
They don’t show at all? If you use it in another place?
@@jfversluis It's showing now, I only adjust the text font size
@@jfversluis For me it is showing but the size is very small, font size is not working for me. Sent you a screenshot in DM in twitter. If you please reply, that would be of great help.
i think it doesnt work in ios, the tab show, but the content doesnt show
If you think that’s the case, please open an issue on the repository with a reproduction
Very cool. Thank you very much. :-)
I did your barcode scanner tutorial before, and tried to combine it with this tutorial. I put the "ZXingScannerView" inside the tabbed "StackLayout".
Unfortunatly, I get after the camera permission acception the error "Java.Lang.NullPointerException: 'Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean android.content.Context.isUiContext()' on a null object reference'"
Do you maybe know how I can fix that error?
EDIT: If I comment out the "ZXingScannerView" the tab app did work without an issue. I also tried it with the latest 3.1.0 beta 2 ZXing.
EDIT2: I just verified that it only happens if I put the ZXing inside the "TabViewItem.Content". Both work on their own, but not combined.
Great..
It’s cool right?
Can i make it floating
With the right design skills you can make it appear floating, absolutely
@@jfversluis can you make a video or any website for me
@@AmanKumar-bi4jl I’m not a great designer, sorry 😅
