Using plugin as Segmented Tabs

[kerberosargos]

Hello firstly thank you for sharing works.

I have researched but I did not find. I would like to ask "is there any way to use your plugin as segmented tabs".

I mean I would like to create 2 constant listviews on ContentPage than I would like to show them by click segmented tabs. I think your plugin created based on ItemSource?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, yes, you can do it easily. There are two approaches: 1) Put two list views to ItemsSource 2) Use DataTemplateSelector for two different lists

Can you write very simple sample? I am trying above code but it is giving me Null error.

 <cards:CarouselView>

        <cards:CarouselView.ItemsSource>
            <x:Array Type="{x:Type View}">
                <ContentView>
                    <Image Source="yourImage.png" />
                </ContentView>
                <RelativeLayout>
                    <Button Text="Click" />
                </RelativeLayout>
                <StackLayout>
                    <Label Text="any text" />
                </StackLayout>
            </x:Array>
        </cards:CarouselView.ItemsSource>

    </cards:CarouselView>

Maybe that is because you don't have yourImage.png ?

 <cards:CarouselView>
        <cards:CarouselView.ItemsSource>
            <x:Array Type="{x:Type View}">
                <ContentView  BackgroundColor="Red" />
                <ContentView BackgroundColor="Green" />
            </x:Array>
        </cards:CarouselView.ItemsSource>
    </cards:CarouselView>

yes, this approach is right. What exactly doesn't work?
