ContentPresenter and ContentView in xamarin forms

-


ContentPresenter :


A layout manager for templated views. Used within a ControlTemplate to mark where the content to be presented
appears.







ContentView :


An element with a single content. ContentView has very little use of its own. Its purpose is to serve as a base class
for user-defined compound views.



* XAML

<ContentView>
<Label Text="Hi, I'm a simple Label inside of a simple ContentView"
HorizontalOptions="Center"
VerticalOptions="Center"/>
</ContentView>

* Code

var contentView = new ContentView {
Content = new Label {
Text = "Hi, I'm a simple Label inside of a simple ContentView",
HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center,
VerticalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center
}
};

In XAML: <ContentPage.Content> <ScrollView> <StackLayout> <BoxView BackgroundColor="Red" HeightRequest="600" WidthRequest="150" /> <Entry /> </StackLayout> </ScrollView> </ContentPage.Content> The same definition in code: var scroll = new ScrollView(); Content = scroll; var stack = new StackLayout(); stack.Children.Add(new BoxView { BackgroundColor = Color.Red, HeightRequest = 600, WidthRequest = 600 });
