    Hi James. Thanks for the help. I based my bachelor task on a mobile application like uber, but for businesses,with xamarin forms and your videos learned me every basic thing i needed to know. Every other tutorial is to messy. Yours is really clean. So thank you.

    Another nice tutorial (out of many) what's up next? I hope you consider doing a piece on how to add machine learning capabilities - I mean a coffee app should have the possibility to provide recommendations on what coffee to serve to people based on their mood - or grinder settings based on weather forecasts - right?

    Thank you for your content. I am stuck with customizing the shell tab bar with icon fonts that change if it the tab is selected or not. I was able to use icon fonts with FontImageSource. To allow the iconfont to change, I have used Style Triggers that check the IsSelected Property and based on true or false will assign an icon font. However, this way it creates flickering and a small animation when changing tabs

    This is a nice way of supporting icons, thank you! One question: Is it possible to add a contour?

      A color? You can set the text color and it shows up in the color you pick

      @@worldofbasti397 I don't think so, you would probably want to look at the built in drawing APIs of Xamarin.Forms to do that.

    how can we have an icon followed by the Label text. I mean an icon preceding the text for the same label. two labels with text of one set to static resource for font awesome and the other as text has some UI alignment issues.

    Starting April 26, 2021, all iOS and iPadOS apps submitted to the App Store must be built with Xcode 12 and the iOS 14 SDK.
    Will Xamarin ios app still be able to Apple Store???
    Thanks.

    • @JamesMontemagno
      @JamesMontemagno  3 роки тому

      We shipped basically same day support for iOS 14 and Xcode 12 :) I have been using them since they came out. So the answer is yes.

    Except if you want to reference them from a bit of local HTML in a web view. Then it is a bit trickier as it doesn't just pick them up. That still needs platform dependant code.

      So you would need to find a tool that lets you pick and choose and create a new custom font. I just use it all

      Hey. I had the same problem. Make sure that you:
      1. Downloaded the ".ttf" or ".otf" fonts
      2. Put your downloaded files into the project explorer and marked them as "Embadded ressource"
      3. Add the downloaded files to your "AssemblyInfo.cs" like in the video
      4. Have a class which defines the unicodes as static strings
      5. Made an xmlns
      6. Did the {x:Static} stuff
      7. AND (THIS WAS MY PROBLEM) set the "FontFamily" attributes to your Aliases as you defined them in your "AssemblyInfo.cs". Like in the video, try FontFamily = "FAR" "FAS" or "FAB".
      I hope this helps you and some others! Good luck! 😄
