Release Date

There is no Calendar Control for Xamarin.Forms available as of today, right?

The structure of the Forum (Xamarin -> Forms -> Calendar) makes me believe, that there are plans for such a control.
Is there a release date for it?

I need to have an iOS and Android App with a calendar view ready by the end of the year and would prefer Xamarin.Forms.

PieChart Selection Behavior

It seems like the selection behavior does not work for RadPieChart. It works for a Bar Series, but not PieSeries.

var chart = new RadPieChart();

var selectionBehavior = new ChartSelectionBehavior { DataPointSelectionMode = ChartSelectionMode.Single, SeriesSelectionMode = ChartSelectionMode.Single };
selectionBehavior.SelectionChanged += (a, b) =>
{
DisplayAlert("SelectionChanged", "You have selected an item", "OK");
};

chart.Behaviors.Add(selectionBehavior);

var series = CreatePieSeries();

chart.Series.Add(series);

Where can I find the documentation for the Calendar?

Hi

I have downloaded the Telerik_UI_for_Xamarin_2014_3_1110_Trial, but can't find any documentation on how to use it? The samples in the trial also don't show how to use it?

Thanks

Use the AccessibilityIdentifier to query the UI element

I am looking to construct the query in my step repositories, such that it can use the accessibilityIdentifier which is what we have widely used in identifying our UIViews in the app.

The other query examples available which use the class and properties such as currentTitle does not seem to apply for our app and hence I am not able to use these tags.

Need help.

Unable to work with the Xamarin Chart

I have started evaluating your chart for Xamarin and got stuck with the starter walkthrough from here:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/xamarin/controls/chart/chart-getting-started

I am getting the errors as shown in attached screenshot and am unable to resolve it. Note that all the references have already been added to the respective projects.

Any sort of help ASAP would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Custom Controls

Can we use UI for Xamarin Forms just like if we had a subscription to Xamarin platform, where we can create our own custom controls that will work across all 3 majors platforms (iOS, Andriod, Windows)? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense to make an app that only has a chart in it and nothing else (chart being the only built-in control for all 3 platforms).

Good start

Hi,

Just downloaded and tested your graph control on our iOS build machine and on a few Androids and on Genymotion built from Visual Studio 2013.

Looks good and works as expected, eagerly awaiting some data visualisation controls such as a data grid. I know you guys are working hard behind the scenes to get other controls out, good job to get something out there so quickly though.

One bit of feedback, I'd like to see the control defined in XAML in the view rather than building up in the cs code behind file. I know this is easier but as forms improves we'd to avoid the code behind approach for defining controls.

Looking forward to the next release,
Norman.

Styles

Xamarin forms 1.3 (I think) will have the ability to allow styling, I spoke personally to one of the Xamarin forms authors at Evolve 2014.

With that in mind does Telerik have plans to implement styles for the Xamarin forms controls going forward?

The demand for information on Xamarin Forms was huge at Evolve 2014, a lot of talks were dedicated to the subject.
