I installed VS with Xamarin but Intellisense in XAML files is not working properly. In some parts of the code it shows the list of suggestions as shown below.

Does anyone have any suggestions to solve or work around this problem?

Thanks to all of you.

I was having the same problem and solved it as follows:

I updated Xamarin to its latest version as requested by Visual Studio 2015 itself

I restarted Visual Studio

Right click on the xaml file and click on "Open With ..", which by default was marked "Source Code Text (Editor) With Encoding" and changed to "Automatic Editor Selector (XML) to be the Default.

Notice that this line should be completely blue if it is working because if it has some element in red it means the Intellisense of the xml that is working and not of the xaml.

Hugs.
