How do Image Click Event works on Xamarin Forms - iOS Apps?

I am relatively new to Xamarin Forms : iOS Apps. Just like any other Apps, I have to create an event on an Image. Home , Back , Account setting.

Whether these events are fired on Image Button Event ?

Solution

  • There is no click event for the image. You have to create a Tap Gesture Recognizer for the image.

    Xaml:

    <Image Source="imageName.png">
    <Image.GestureRecognizers>
        <TapGestureRecognizer
                Tapped="OnImageNameTapped"
                NumberOfTapsRequired="1" />
  </Image.GestureRecognizers>
</Image>

    Xaml.cs:

    void OnImageNameTapped(object sender, EventArgs args)
    {
        try
         {
            //Code to execute on tapped event
         }
        catch (Exception ex)
         {
           throw ex;
         }
    }
