#PancakeView
People have been asking, so let me answer; I'm sorely lacking in time to support #PancakeView🥞 lately. This leaves me with a few options:

- Submit to the #XamarinCommunityToolkit
- Have someone else take over
- Deprecate and move people to newer XF graphics bits

Thoughts?

The wonderful people over at Tizen have created #PancakeView🥞 for Tizen 😍 Runs on #SkiaSharp under the hood and is pretty much feature complete. Available now in v2.1.0.714! Awesome stuff so go check it out! Thanks @Jay_jhCho @rookiejava

Gradients (in 4.8) ✅
Rounded corners -> Shapes ✅
Borders -> Shapes ✅
Shadows ❌

Not long before XamForms natively supports all of #PancakeView natively and we can wave at it while it rides off into the sunset 😁 https://t.co/TkkUGno3aa

So, I see that making the UWP version of #PancakeView🥞 community support instead of first-party support from v2.0 onwards has gotten people talking a bit. Let me explain what that means in more detail just in case things are being misinterpreted. (1/...)

PancakeView goes v2.0! Here's what's new.
It’s been in the making for quite a while and the road to getting to the end result has been quite a struggle. However, it’s finally time to release version 2.0 of PancakeView!

Any people knowledgable with Android custom drawing in the house willing to pitch in on some PancakeView things? Trying to draw shadows, but clipping is coming back to haunt me...

Finally decided to sit down and fix that border drawing style enumeration that has been there forever but never really worked as it should on PancakeView🥞.

Finally figured this stupid thing out. Thanks to all who gave mental support, you know who you are 😘 So the fruits of that labour: Up your shadows game with PancakeView🥞 vNext 🎉

Been exploring adding some new bits to PancakeView🥞 like this border dash pattern feature. Where I think it can really use some work is shadows though. However, with such vast differences per platform; what would you think is a nice way of implementing them cross platform?

Could one say that PancakeView is essentially a glorified StackLayout? A "SnackLayout" as it were?

Wanted a #PancakeView🥞, #DebugRainbows🌈 or #StateSquid🦑 sticker, but not finding them anymore at #XamExpertDay? Come have a chat, I might have a few still lying around in the secret stash.

New #PancakeView🥞 version: https://github.com/sthewissen/Xamarin.Forms.PancakeView/wiki/v1.3.3 - Fixing some bugs most notably shadows + individual corner radii on Android + UWP support out of beta.

There will come a day that #PancakeView🥞 will be deprecated and it will be glorious. I won’t be mad because it means all of the features will be in the Xamarin.Forms platform 🤩 @jsuarezruiz has made specs for most of the bits already so curious to see where it goes.

.@JamesMontemagno always reppin’ that PancakeView #dotNETConf! I probably need to buy you some German pancakes @XamExpertDay 😂🥞

What have you made me do @JamesMontemagno... #PancakeView🥞

For whoever has missed it, #PancakeView🥞 now supports polygonal shapes as well since v1.1.8! Get 'em while they're hot! https://www.thewissen.io/pancakeview-update-v118/
Breaking the Pancake mould
You may have used PancakeView in your Xamarin.Forms adventures in the past. Ever dreamed of breaking out of that rectangular/circular mould? Well, now you can with the latest PancakeView update!

I see some non-English PancakeView blogs popping up! Awesome, feeling honored ☺️ Panqueques para todos! https://twitter.com/TrailheadTech/status/1156209368204902402

Another new version of #PancakeView🥞 is out (1.1.5)! This time: gradient borders (suggested by @SinkingStar) and elevation to influence the default shadows (PR-ed by @Piskariov)!
November 16, 2024 at 12:51 PM
New #PancakeView🥞 now out of beta, new icon, new options, getting tastier with every release 🤤 Screenshot below shows all combinations of possible bits. Borders, gradients, shadows all in one box of pre-packaged pancakes.

They were talked about by the one and only @davidortinau yesterday at #XamDevSummit: gradients. Today they’re here in the new #PancakeView🥞 beta: multi coloured gradients for Xamarin Forms! Easily made by using the new gradient stops property 😍 https://bit.ly/32qNUoY

Playing around with a new #PancakeView🥞 version. Improving most of the rendering for both iOS and Android and adding some new little bits. Here's a look at some of the possible combinations it currently offers and will offer in the near future 😍

A sunny Sunday and I'm updating my NuGet packages to #Xamarin 4.0. #PancakeView and #DebugRainbows are done, #EasyLoading is playing hard to get it seems. There's a weird issue in it, but there's a beta version out there regardless. For testing purposes only.
November 16, 2024 at 12:48 PM
Latest Xamarin Forms version seems to break something in PancakeView. I won’t be home until late on Sunday to check it out though. Just so you know.
