'Changing BackgroundColor of Button within Xamarin CollectionView changes the BackgroundColor of every 8th button down. why?
I have a Xamarin CollectionView That uses a Button (Button x:Name="PNameButton") to Change the Background color of the button.
When the Button is clicked the background color changes... However - So does every 8th Button in the CollectionView. Its as if the CollectionView renders new data every 8 or so items, and that new first button gets the changed color property. How do I fix this? Code Follows:
<CollectionView x:Name="PairingsCollectionView" SelectionMode="Multiple" Margin="20,5,20,5" >
<CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid Margin="0" Padding="0,0,0,0">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="25" />
<RowDefinition Height="35" />
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<BoxView Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" Margin="0" Color="#333130"/>
<Button x:Name="PNameButton" Margin="0" Padding="0,0,0,0" Grid.Column="0" BackgroundColor="{Binding UseColor}" Text="{Binding PDisplayName}" FontSize="Small" TextColor="Black"
HorizontalOptions="Start" VerticalOptions="Center" Clicked="Button_Clicked" />
<BoxView Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Color="#333130" Margin="0"></BoxView>
<Label Margin="0" Padding="0,0,0,0" Grid.Column="1" TextColor="White" FontSize="Small"
HorizontalOptions="Center" VerticalOptions="Center" >
<Label.FormattedText>
<FormattedString>
<Span Text="{Binding PDays, StringFormat='{0}Dy'}"/>
<Span Text=" "/>
<Span Text="{Binding PDay}"/>
</FormattedString>
</Label.FormattedText>
</Label>
<BoxView Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="2" Margin="0" Color="#333130"></BoxView>
<Label Margin="0" Padding="0,0,0,0" Grid.Column="2" Text="{Binding PCredit, StringFormat='{0}'}" TextColor="#F57BFA" FontSize="Small"
HorizontalOptions="Center" VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<BoxView Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="3" Color="#333130" Margin="0"></BoxView>
<Label Margin="0" Padding="0,0,0,0" Grid.Column="3" Text="{Binding PFlightTime, StringFormat='{0}'}" TextColor="White" FontSize="Small"
HorizontalOptions="Center" VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<BoxView Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="4" Color="#333130" Margin="0"/>
<Label Margin="0" Padding="0,0,0,0" Grid.Column="4" Text="{Binding PRegionType, StringFormat='{0}'}" TextColor="White" FontSize="Small" HorizontalOptions="Center" VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<BoxView Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="5" Color="#333130" Margin="0"/>
<CheckBox x:Name="IsSelectedCheckbox" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="5" IsChecked="{Binding PIsSelected}" VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<BoxView Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="1" Color="LightGray"></BoxView>
<Label Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="1" Text="{Binding PDateModified}" TextColor="Black" FontSize="Small"
HorizontalOptions="Center" VerticalOptions="Center"/>
<BoxView Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="5" Color="LightGray" ></BoxView>
<Label Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="5" Text="{Binding PLayovers}"
TextColor="Coral" FontAttributes="Bold" FontSize="17" HorizontalOptions="Start" VerticalOptions="Center" Margin="5,0,0,0" />
<WebView Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="6" BackgroundColor="#333130"
MinimumHeightRequest="150" HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"
HeightRequest="{Binding PWebViewHeight}" >
<WebView.Source>
<HtmlWebViewSource Html="{Binding PAllText}"/>
</WebView.Source>
</WebView>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</CollectionView.ItemTemplate>
</CollectionView>
And in the Code Behind:
private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
string ChkVal = "";
bool compareBool = false;
bool currentState = false;
Color buttonColer;
string ColorHexVal;
int i = 0;
var thisButton = sender as Button;
buttonColer = thisButton.BackgroundColor;
ColorHexVal = buttonColer.ToHex();
if (buttonColer != Color.FromHex("#F7F75A"))
{
currentState = true;
}
else
{
currentState = false;
}
var PairingItem = ((Button)sender).Parent.BindingContext as Pairings;
compareBool = App.DatabaseNA.GetIsSelected(PairingItem.PID);
if (!compareBool == true)
{
thisButton.BackgroundColor = Color.FromHex("#46AE3C");
}
else
{
thisButton.BackgroundColor = Color.FromHex("#F7F75A");
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
DisplayAlert("Alert", ex.InnerException.ToString(), "OK"); //await
}
}
Again - Thank You!!! The code works great and sets the Background color of the button... The problem is - It sets the Background Color of every Button about 8 items down.
Thanks
