I'm working on an application where I've used TapGestureRecognizer on a Path. This works correctly in Android but when I build and debug on an iOS device (physical or emulated) the command bound to the recognizer doesn't work. The code is as follows:
<shapes:Path Data="{StaticResource CustomIconResource}">
<shapes:Path.GestureRecognizers>
<TapGestureRecognizer Command="{Binding ExecuteMyCommand}" />
</shapes:Path.GestureRecognizers>
</shapes:Path>
I don't see any exceptions in the log that would indicate why this isn't working. Any help on this would be great.
@Andrew I managed to reproduce the issue and report here : https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/issues/13020 ,I will keep monitoring this thread and post here if something gets update.
@Cole Xia (Shanghai Wicresoft Co,.Ltd.) I really appreciate you opening that case. jsuarezruiz linked to another issue that looks like the same issue. I tried setting the InputTransparent option in XAML as a workaround (which is mentioned in https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/issues/10623) but that didn't work for me unfortunately.
InputTransparent does not work for me either.
After some testing I decided to just create a custom control to wrap the Shape. The control is just a ContentView with a Shape as it's only child. I added a TapGestureRecognizer to the ContentView, set the Shapes InputTransparent attribute to true and exposed bindings for some of the Shapes attributes and for a Command that I bind to the TapGestureRecognizer. Kind of a pain but it works and actually simplifies my XAML a little bit.
It's seem the only workaround before the final fix release . If possible could you kindly post as answer below ?
Until the issue with `` on iOS is fixed I created a custom control to wrap a Shape in a ContentView and set the TapGestureRecognizer on the ContentView instead. The code has been attached.
