Remarks

Button Appearance

In addition to the appearance properties common to all View objects, the Button class provides the BorderColor, BorderWidth, and ImageSource properties.

The XAML code snippet below demonstrates how to use these properties to create a basic button with the text "Press me!" The image that the button displays appears on the start side of the layout, which is the left side for left-to-right languages.

<Button Text="Press me!"
        Image="icon.png"
        BackgroundColor="White"
        BorderWidth="2"
        BorderColor="Black"
        HorizontalOptions="Center"/>

To display the icon.png image with the above XAML, the developer must place it in the appropriate location, with the appropriate build action, specific to each platform project. The Images topic explains this and other important details about working with images in Microsoft.Maui.Controls.

Button Events

Buttons notify the developer of press, release, and click events with the Pressed, Released, and Clicked events, respectively.

The following XAML assigns handlers to two of these button events:

<Button x:Name="PressMeButton"
        Text="Press Me!"
        Pressed="PressMeButton_Pressed"
        Clicked="PressMeButton_Clicked"/>

With the XAML above, the following event handlers in the code-behind file change the button's text when these events are raised:

private void PressMeButton_Pressed(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   (sender as Button).Text = "You pressed me!";
}

private void PressMeButton_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   (sender as Button).Text = "I was just clicked!";
}

Commands

The commanding API for buttons allows the developer to run a command in response to what would otherwise be the Clicked event.

The following XAML specifes a command to run when the button is clicked. The command updates a view model property called modelUpdateCount, which the button then uses to update its text. (The text binding is shown for completeness. Only the commanding code is relevant.):

<Button Text="{Binding modelUpdateCount, StringFormat='Number of updates to the model: {0:D}'}"
        Command="{Binding IncrementLabelCommand}" />

With the XAML above, the developer first defines the IncrementLabelCommand property on the view model and implements a method with which to later instantiate the command:

public ICommand IncrementLabelCommand { get; private set; }

void IncrementLabel()
{
   modelUpdateCount++;
}

Second, the developer initializes the command with the method (or action):

public ViewModelDemo()
{
   IncrementLabelCommand = new Command(IncrementLabel);
}

Finally, the developer must sets the binding context in the constructor for the main page to that of the view model where the property is implemented:

public MainPage()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    BindingContext = new ViewModelDemo();
}

Constructors

FindByName<T>(Element, String)
CancelAnimations(VisualElement)	Aborts all animations (e.g. LayoutTo, TranslateTo, ScaleTo, etc.) on the view element.
FadeTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that performs the fade that is described by the opacity, length, and easing parameters.
LayoutTo(VisualElement, Rect, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that eases the bounds of the VisualElement that is specified by the view to the rectangle that is specified by the bounds parameter.
RelRotateTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Rotates the VisualElement that is specified by view from its current rotation by drotation.
RelScaleTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that scales the VisualElement that is specified by view from its current scale to dscale.
RotateTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that rotates the VisualElement that is specified by view that is described by the rotation, length, and easing parameters.
RotateXTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that skews the X axis of the the VisualElement that is specified by view by rotation, taking time length and using easing.
RotateYTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that skews the Y axis of the the VisualElement that is specified by view by rotation, taking time length and using easing.
ScaleTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that scales the VisualElement that is specified by view to the absolute scale factor scale.
ScaleXTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that scales the X axis of the the VisualElement that is specified by view to the absolute scale factor scale.
ScaleYTo(VisualElement, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Returns a task that scales the Y axis of the the VisualElement that is specified by view to the absolute scale factor scale.
TranslateTo(VisualElement, Double, Double, UInt32, Easing)	Animates an elements TranslationX and TranslationY properties from their current values to the new values. This ensures that the input layout is in the same position as the visual layout.
HasVisualStateGroups(VisualElement)	Returns true if element has one or more visual state groups associated with it. Otherwise, returns false.
