Features and usage

It's super simple to get started:

publicclassViewController:UIViewController{privateTagListViewtagsView;publicoverridevoidViewDidLoad(){// codethis.tagsView=newTagListView(){// you can customize properties here!};this.View.AddSubview(this.tagsView);this.View.AddConstraints(// Add your constraints!);// you can attach a source object to each tagvarmyObject=newMyModel{Title="I'm a MyModel!"};this.tagsView.AddTag(myObject.Title,myObject);// but, if none is provided, it will be the text string this.tagsView.AddTag("I'm a simple tag!");}}

By default, TagsView will display a button next to the text of the tag. To prevent this, you can pass the value false for the parameter enableTagButton in its constructor.

As explained in the code snippet, each tag can contain a source object. These will be available for you on the events the control exposes:

• TagSelected: User tapped a tag.
• TagButtonTapped: User tapped a tag button.

There are also a lot of properties available for you to customize the look & feel:

Feature	Property	Type
Alignment	Alignment	TagsAlignment
Text color	TagTextColor	UIColor
Tag background color	TagBackgroundColor	UIColor
Font	TextFont	UIFont
Tag corner radius	CornerRadius	float
Tag border width	BorderWidth	float

MvvmCross version

If you are using MvvmCross, you can take advantage of MvxTagListView!

publicclassViewController:UIViewController{// declare a MvxTagListView using MyObject as items typeprivateMvxTagListView<MyObject>mvxTagsView;publicoverridevoidViewDidLoad(){// You need to specify how MyObject can be translated to a string in the ctor!this.mvxTagsView=newMvxTagListView<MyObject>(
myObject =>myObject.Title){// you can customize properties here!};this.View.AddSubview(this.mvxTagsView);this.View.AddConstraints(// Add your constraints!);varset=this.CreateBindingSet<FirstView,FirstViewModel>();// In this case, YourSource should be an ObservableCollection<MyObject>set.Bind(this.mvxTagsView).For(v =>v.ItemsSource).To(vm =>vm.YourSource);// MyObjectTagSelectedCommand should be a IMvxCommand<MyObject>set.Bind(this.mvxTagsView).For(v =>v.TagSelectedCommand).To(vm =>vm.MyObjectTagSelectedCommand);// MyObjectTagButtonTappedCommand should be a IMvxCommand<MyObject>set.Bind(this.mvxTagsView).For(v =>v.TagButtonTappedCommand).To(vm =>vm.MyObjectTagButtonTappedCommand);set.Apply();}}

As you can see from the code snippet, the control allows you to bind ItemsSource and two commands: TagSelectedCommand, TagButtonTappedCommand.

Using a collection of strings as items source

If your source is just a collection of strings, you should consider using MvxSimpleTagListView, super handy!

publicclassMvxSimpleTagListView:MvxTagListView<string>{publicMvxSimpleTagListView(boolenableTagButton=true):base(s =>s,enableTagButton){}}
