I am trying to lightly customise by inheritance some Elements in Mvvmcross Dialog implementation.
Colors and fonts are getting set fine, but if I try to set the Text Labels frame (to 100 X ... in this example) I cannot get it to stick.
Can anyone point me in the direction of where I am going wrong here? tried it in a couple different places.
public class MyBooleanElement : BooleanElement {
public MyBooleanElement (string caption) : base(caption, false)
{
}
protected override UISwitch CreateSwitch()
{
UISwitch s = base.CreateSwitch();
s.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Clear;
s.Opaque = false;
s.Layer.Opacity = 0.25f;
return s;
}
protected override UITableViewCell GetCellImpl(UITableView tv)
{
var cell = base.GetCellImpl(tv);
if (cell.BackgroundColor != UIColor.Clear) {
cell.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Clear;
cell.TextLabel.Font = Theme.GetContentFont();
cell.TextLabel.TextColor = UIColor.White;
cell.TextLabel.Frame = new RectangleF(100, 0, 320, 20); // this is not holding, resets to 15
cell.ContentView.Frame = new RectangleF(50, cell.ContentView.Frame.Top, cell.ContentView.Frame.Width, cell.ContentView.Frame.Height); // try this also?
}
return cell;
}
protected override void UpdateCaptionDisplay(UITableViewCell cell)
{
base.UpdateCaptionDisplay(cell);
if (cell != null) {
cell.TextLabel.Frame = new RectangleF(100, 0, 320, 20); // this is not holding, resets to 15
cell.TextLabel.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Blue; // Yet this works? some constraints somewhere cannot see in source!
}
}
}
