DataForm in FlipView with Pagination

[George]

Hi

I'm working on a simple xamarin app, this would be displaying a list of property's in a search screen, when the user double clicks the property he or she goes on to a new screen this then displays the property for editing.

The thing is the properties are broken down into acquisition units, so the editor needs to display multiple acquisition units, using some kind of pivot or flipview control together with the means to add/delete acquisition units

I think I can use the radgrid control for the search screen. But I'm uncertain the best way to create the editor I hoped to be able to use the DataForm somehow, possibly by embedding it in some kind of pivot control, but how would I handle pagination. 

Any thought would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks

George

Hi George,

If I understand your scenario correctly, you need to edit multiple items with the same data structure in a single data form. The data form should be able to navigate between items, add new items and delete existing ones. Such functionality should be pretty straightforward to implement, just by manipulating the underlying view-model accordingly.

Attached to my post, you can find a small sample project illustrating this idea. The sample project lists several people and allows editing their contact cards. Tapping on a person navigates to a second page with the contact cards. The data form can edit one contact card at a time. Tapping "Next" or "Previous" allows you to navigate between contact cards, "Add" adds a new contact card, while "Delete" deletes the current one.

I hope this would help.

Ivan
