I have a View that is being called through a MenuItem button. But within these View contains another button that calls a new View . This new View opens off the burger menu, ie it hides itself.
I need this new View to continue displaying the menu just above as in the first image.
I have already used PushModalAsync and PushAsync but continue this way.
How can I fix this issue?
Using the MessagingSender in xamarin we can do a detailpagechanged navigation that keeps the menu in place of push and pop.
MessagingCenter.Subscribe<Page>(this, "DetailPageChanged", (page) =>
{
DetailPageChanged(page);
});
private void DetailPageChanged(Page page)
{
var currentDetailPage = Detail as HoldingPage;
if (currentDetailPage != null)
{
var internalPage = currentDetailPage.CurrentPage as IDisposable;
if (internalPage != null)
{
internalPage.Dispose();
}
}
var holdingPage = new HoldingPage();
holdingPage.PopAsync();
holdingPage.PushAsync(page);
Detail = holdingPage;
}
You can create a helper and call the method this way:
public static void SendDetailPageChanged(Page detailPage)
{
MessagingCenter.Send<Page>(detailPage, "DetailPageChanged");
}
