Enforce theme in Xamarin-CodePudding

I want to enforce the lightmode theme to my android application.

I've added this line of code to the app.cs

public partial class App : Application
{
    public App()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        App.Current.UserAppTheme = OSAppTheme.Light;
        MainPage = new MainPage();
    }

I read this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/user-interface/theming/system-theme-changes but don't understand what I'm missing.

CodePudding user response：

Assigning App.Current.UserAppTheme is not enough, you have to define your light or/and dark theme through styles for different controls using the xaml extension AppThemeBinding like shown in examples in documentation link.

I've solved this by placing this line of code in the MainActivity.cs from the Android project

AppCompatDelegate.DefaultNightMode = AppCompatDelegate.ModeNightNo;

Placing this line of code directly at the start of the OnCreate method solves the problem.
