The app works fine on device when i use a default theme but when i modify it, i have white pages.
Can somebody help?
On the simulator:
On the device (Tablet Sumsung galaxy 10.1) everything is white:
There is an issue with background gradient style UIID's on Android.
However, you should probably not use background theme gradients as explained here. They are less efficient than background images by a big margin.

After send a javascript build with androidTheme (override the default iOS theme), the output javascript apps works properly, just the "ActionBar" (Back,Menu) button do not appear (yes, there is Commands added into the form)
This make my build javascript apps with androidTheme cannot perform Command action or even "Back" command.
Any idea to solve this issue? If I use default iOS theme, the command is added automatically into the top/bottom bar.
This seems to be a continuation of the discussion here.
Generally commands are not portable unless you use the Toolbar API at which point they become cross platform. The iOS theme uses the StatusBar style to space the title so you can just set that UIID to 0 but if you build a native iOS app that might be an issue.
I'm new to Xamarin.Forms and was looking for a way to remove the Splash Screen and have my custom animated splash screen, does anyone have the idea about how to do it? Any help at all would be great!
Thanks
There is a blog post here that details how remove the default splash screen and replace this on iOS, Android, and WindowsPhone.
For example on the Android example, they are talking about creating a new Activity, prior to loading the default Activity that will launch the Xamarin.Forms App.
Using that approach will most likely also work in all other platforms. As you can do some platform-specific native animation set, prior to launching your real Xamarin.Forms App in your PCL.
I just developed a multiplatform mobile app with Codename One. I styled it using the codename one visual tool. I tested the app on multiple ios and Android devices and everything is fine except on asus android tablet. With these one. The screen displays like no style is loaded. The screens remains mainly dark... any idea ?
Look within your override directory, if you have a file there just delete it.
Ok. Starting over with this. I see that the SocialBoo theme has something similar in what I want to achieve. If I find that I can work and improve. I Added a new socialboo theme and created blank GUI. Assumed it would be a Commandbehavior but that didnt do the trick, so did adding tabs. Seems like those components are not for that specific bar... However did notice another issue.
How do I get the social actionbar as displayed in the socialboo theme? (Screen shot). Assuming those images etc are part of the default theme, right.
Also, If I create a TouchCommand = bar, title or native. It displays fine in Gingerbread but not ICS. DO you know why is that? (screen shot)
Thanks, in advance.
Those images aren't a part of the theme, they are a part of the specific demo. If you add a Tabs component to the center of the border layout UI you will get thee tabs where the "icon" property will allow you to customize the unselected icon and you can customize the selected icon as well. You can see the full source/resource file of the social boo demo in the docs and demos zip in the download section.
Generally customizing commands is a bit complex because of platform specific constraints, when running on an Actual Android 4 device we use the native ActionBar by default to provide the experience Android users are used to. This is hard for us to simulate so you will only see this properly in the device build. I suggest not relying on commands, it seems that what you are trying to achieve is easily doable with tabs and its possible that's why you had difficulties in your other question.
If someone can help me with this I will be eternally grateful. Recently I have started an on-line magazine using virb.com to host the site. I have done some basic css alterations to their theme but run into a problem when the theme automatically re-sizes itself for mobiles or even if the browser window is shrunken down. The content goes all whack, probably because of my css alterations. Is there a way that I can disable the responsive theme from resizing or fix my css so it doesn't discombobulate or even just have different page display for mobile users that says something like 'not available for mobile'??
Thanks,
