In xamarin ,How to get touch point absolute location?

bushougu 1

I need use touch point absolute location to do something.
I have seen all GestureRecognizer,It seem only relative location .
also I find the TouchTrackingEffect samples :https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/app-fundamentals/effects/touch-tracking
It can get the touch point absolute location , but I don't want using the"PlatformEffect",maintain Platform multi-platform is suffer.
have any way get the location without using PlatformEffect?

There is no way to receive the absolute position of touchpoint in Xamarin.Forms without platform specific code.

You could try to use Skia Nuget Package to track the touch position, please refer to Touch Manipulations.

in theTouch Manipulations Examples ，It still using TouchEffect（base on PlatformEffect）to get the base absolute position。
look like Skia Nuget Package can do some matrix transformations.
good to know,but not i look for this time.

In Xamarin.Forms, you have to use platform specific code to get the absolute position as the documentation you mentioned said.

Thanks for your feedback.
