adding a page control to UITableView

Time:12-28

I have a UITableView that we're looking to adjust to have a carousel-like effect to items in our table that the user has pinned to the top.

example

I see that the page control is a view controller and the other item is just the dot container. I've seen a few other SO answers suggest I use a UIScrollview with the page control but in all those cases their data was just images and in my case it's a combination of text, buttons, and images so I'm lost on what a good clean solution would be.

CodePudding user response:

As I mentioned in the comment , we can't just combine TabView PageControl, ScrollView is also needed in this scenario .

  1. Create a ScrollView to wrap all the views/elements ,and put the ScrollView into Cell.ContentView.

  2. Add PageControl into Cell.ContentView.

Sample code

 public class User
    {
        public string icon { get; set; }
        public string name { get; set; }
        public string content { get; set; }
        public string image { get; set; }

    }

    [Register("UIViewController1")]
    public class UIViewController1 : UIViewController
    {
        public UIViewController1()
        {
        }

        public override void ViewDidLoad()
        {
            base.ViewDidLoad();

            UITableView table = new UITableView(View.Bounds); // defaults to Plain style
            List<User> tableItems = new List<User>();
            tableItems.Add(new User { icon = "dog.png", name = "Cole", content = "I'm test1", image = "bg1.PNG" });
            tableItems.Add(new User { icon = "dog.png", name = "Kevin", content = "I'm test222222222", image = "bg2.PNG" });
            tableItems.Add(new User { icon = "dog.png", name = "Tom", content = "I'm test333333_33333333", image = "bg3.PNG" });

            table.Source = new TableSource(tableItems);
            Add(table);


        }

    }

    public class TableSource : UITableViewSource

        List<User> TableItems;
