How do I access Shell PresentationMode in code?

Question

When the Xamarin.Shell begins navigation, the Navigating event is fired. Inside here, is there any way to access the following property that I set in the constructor for the ContentPage being displayed (i.e. the one from which the navigation is initiated)?

public MyContentPage()
{
     Shell.SetPresentationMode( this, PresentationMode.Modal );
}

I've dug through just about everything in the debugger and can't find it anywhere.

Hello PatrickRyder,​

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

To access the presentation mode of the page, try using Shell.GetPresentationMode method.

Here is the sample code, you could refer to it.

   var mode = Shell.GetPresentationMode(this);
