How to Programming with Mvvmcross

As Stuart said in his comment, N=32 - ViewModels and MvxView on the iPad - N+1 days of MvvmCross is the MVVMCross tutorial you want. For those that are happy with the idea of ViewModels being more than just a ViewModel per screen and understand Binding the bit around Custom...

UICollectionView Help What is the Best Way for adding section in MVVMCross Xamarin?

To add supplementary views within a UICollectionView, you'll need to override the CollectionViewSource to provide them. The base code for this in MvvmCross is in https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/blob/3.5/Cirrious/Cirrious.MvvmCross.Binding.Touch/Views/MvxCollectionViewSource.cs and https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/blob/3.5/Cirrious/Cirrious.MvvmCross.Binding.Touch/Views/MvxBaseCollectionViewSource.cs A good Xamarin tutorial for CollectionViews is...

MvvmCross binding + Android EventHandler

android,android-fragments,xamarin,mvvmcross

I suspect this is caused by both the MvvmCross binding and the internal Xamarin event handling both using SeekbarListener's - while Java only allows one of them to work at a time. In MvvmCross's case, this listener is at https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/blob/3.5/Cirrious/Cirrious.MvvmCross.Binding.Droid/Target/MvxSeekBarProgressTargetBinging.cs#L41 One way around this for your case is: you could...

How to prevent SupportV4 (Fragment)Tabhost creating its own Fragment at TabChange?

The answer would be the work-around; (but a better solution would be the suggestion of Cheesebaron) public override View OnCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { if (ViewModel == null) { return null; } base.OnCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState); return this.BindingInflate(Resource.Layout.GroupedFragmentView, null); } ...

MvvmCross IMvxValueConverter fires every time you type a key

c#,android,xamarin,mvvmcross

To solve this, you could add a binding for FocusText which would only update on losing focus. There was discussion recently about introducing FocusText within MvvmCross - based on MvvmCross: change update source trigger property of binding on MonoDroid - but I don't believe that ever made it through to...

MVVMCross WPF Value Converter with Tibet Binding Is Not Converting?

wpf,xaml,mvvm,mvvmcross,valueconverter

The debug output was telling me that it failed to find combiner or converter for BoolNegation. I noticed in the source code for MvxWpfSetup that it does not contain either protected virtual void RegisterBindingBuilderCallbacks() nor protected virtual void FillValueConverters(IMvxValueConverterRegistry registry) Like the MvxAndroidSetup class does, so neither of these methods...

ViewModel is null during ViewDidLoad

ios,xamarin,mvvmcross

I'm guessing here the problem here will be specific to the way that TabBarViewController is constructed. ViewDidLoad is a virtual method and it is called the first time the View is accessed. In the case of TabBarViewController this happens during the iOS base View constructor - i.e. it occurs before...

Registering same singleton for multiple interfaces in IOC

c#,xamarin,mvvmcross

You can register a factory for the singleton which can produce a singleton manually and return that whenever anyone wants to call it.

Can't update hot tuna ios dialog support to version 3.5

monotouch,xamarin,mvvmcross,monotouch.dialog

The issue is you are still targeting the old 32 bit only iOS api (the MonoTouch.dll). All apps being written for the store must support 64 bit and 32 bit (Xamarin.ios.dll). You can I believe get a build of mvvmcross 3.5 that will support the old apis, but I'd look...

Conditional Binding of Properties using MVVMCross

c#,ios,xamarin,monotouch,mvvmcross

Typically, Mvvm developers do this type of formatting in a ValueConverter For more on this, see https://github.com/MvvmCross/MvvmCross/wiki/Value-Converters This includes the "time ago" sample which shows how to change the string depending on current value: public class MyTimeAgoValueConverter : MvxValueConverter<DateTime, string> { protected override string Convert(DateTime value, Type targetType, object parameter,...

New iOS MVVMCross project - which Nuget package and/or PCL targets?

ios,mono,xamarin,mvvmcross,portable-class-library

It looks like Your challenge is supporting Silverlight 5 - sl50 All the other platforms you list will support modern PCL profiles like 78 and 259. However, Microsoft haven't built any Silverlight support for these profiles. This dropping of the "older profiles" is why MvvmCross dropped the old WindowsPhone support...

UIAlertView popup won't let me swipe up Control Center

ios,xamarin,mvvmcross

It's not possible to get around this, since UIAlertView is probably being displayed above the window that handles gestures for the Control Center. This is the way Apple made it. I would use a custom view as a UIAlertView and fade the background view's alpha. Or you could use a...

MvvmCross/MvvmCross-SQLite support for profile 259 on Xamarin (.Net 4.5)

Xamarin Forms won't build with MvvmCross (Android)

c#,mono,xamarin,monodroid,mvvmcross

Thanks Stuart, after checking the differences of the solutions. I noticed that my project is missing the MvvmCross.HotTuna.MvvmCrossLibraries.

What's the proper way to implement Fragments in MvvmCross 3.5.1

Xamarin.Android 5.1 introduces some breaking changes. This means you need to add [Register("app.namespace.FragmentName")] in all your Fragments.

Positioning a dialog window in WPF

c#,wpf,mvvm,mvvmcross

You should have a method / command, as such: public static void ShowMyWindow(WindowAbsoluteLocationPosition pos) { IShowMyWindowService myService = Mvx.Resolve<IShowMyWindowService>(); myService.ShowWindow(pos); } If that is done, you should use CommandParameter with Converter: <Button Command="{Binding YourCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding ElementName=YourWindow, Converter={StaticResource yourConverter}}" /> which basically can turn YourWindow into the correct WindowAbsoluteLocationPosition (user-defined) structure...

MvxAdapter Programmatic Binding

For future reference, this is how I tackled binding within the adapter: The convertView is an IMvxBindingContextOwner, as set in the base.GetBindableView(). If convertView is cast to this, the binding methods, such as CreateBinding are available. You can then create a binding for any view within ConvertView, but I also...

Hosting and initialising multiple MVVMCross ViewModels for the MvxTabViewController

monotouch,mvvmcross

Creating dialog element inside tableViewController

xamarin,mvvmcross,mvxbind

This doesn't sound like it's a straight-forward thing to do. Monotouch.Dialog is an impressively complex beast and it relies on a few properties and methods in the owning DialogViewController.

Why “removing any who's ViewModel PropertyType is an interface” when creating the MvvMCross View lookup table

Failure in locating ValueCombiner in MvvmCross Android project

Getting a switch Checked event to fire in the same way as a Click event with mvvmcross

c#,xamarin,monodroid,mvvmcross

Binding to DataModel in MVVMCross

data-binding,monotouch,xamarin,mvvmcross

The default mode is by naming convention. If your view is called "AwesomeView", Mvx will assign "AwesomeViewModel" to it at the app initialization. When your view is instantiated, Mvx will "inject" the dependency (ViewModel) into your view as a binding context So the convention to look up the view model...

MvvmCross AttributedText Converter data binding generates null pointer warning, but label renders fine — what is wrong?

The warnings will be generated because when an MvxTableViewCell is reused, then its binding context is set to null. This will cause the bindings to use their fallback values - which by default are also null. To workaround this issue (to remove the warnings), you could try setting string.Empty fallback...

Unable to bind custom MvvmCross Views

android,visual-studio,xamarin,mvvmcross

As Stuart suggested, this is a part of Xamarin's breaking changes in Xamarin 5.1. I had to do two things to fix this: I had to add [Register("com/example/namespace/CustomViewName")] to my custom Views to fix those.

You didn't include your viewmodel's code but I belive you execute your navigation logic in setter of your SelectedProductSearchResult property.

How to detect when MvxListView is bound and has loaded its bindings?

To be safe, though, you can...
