Axemasta / MauiButtonSpinner

A simple POC for a button spinner

MauiButtonSpinner

A simple example of a button spinner. when the bound command is executing, an activity spinner will be displayed within the button.

This control is a very Xamarin approach, I believe a better implementation would be possible using a ButtonHandler and implementing the spinner on each platform. The advantage would be all styling would be inherited, the disadvantage being complexity!

Usage

• Add ButtonSpinner.cs to your project
• Reference xml namespace: xmlns:controls="clr-namespace:ButtonSpinner.Controls"
• Add to content:

<controls:ButtonSpinner
    Margin="0,0,0,20"
    BackgroundColor="LightBlue"
    Command="{Binding DoSomethingCommand}"
    CornerRadius="0"
    FontAttributes="Bold"
    FontSize="Title"
    IndicatorColor="Yellow"
    Text="Styled Spinner"
    TextColor="Red" />

Appearance

The default appearance:

With styling (this looks ghastly, but gives a basic idea):
