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.
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.
As I mentioned in the comment , we can't just combine TabView + PageControl
, ScrollView
is also needed in this scenario .
Create a ScrollView
to wrap all the views/elements ,and put the ScrollView into Cell.ContentView
.
Add PageControl
into Cell.ContentView
.
Refer to
UIScrollView and UIPageControl within UITableView
UIPageControl with UITableView
Is the following screen shot you want ?
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);
