I try to mix the pinch and pan gesture code (https://developer.xamarin.com/samples/xamarin-forms/WorkingWithGestures/PinchGesture/ and https://developer.xamarin.com/samples/xamarin-forms/WorkingWithGestures/PanGesture/) for my image control but failed. The image just acting weirdly while zooming/panning. I think some of the code are conflicting in the OnPinchUpdated and OnPanUpdated fucntions.
My PinchToZoomAndPanContainer class is shown below:
public class PinchToZoomAndPanContainer : ContentView
{
double currentScale = 1;
double startScale = 1;
double xOffset = 0;
double yOffset = 0;
double x, y;
public PinchToZoomContainer()
{
var pinchGesture = new PinchGestureRecognizer();
pinchGesture.PinchUpdated += OnPinchUpdated;
GestureRecognizers.Add(pinchGesture);
var panGesture = new PanGestureRecognizer();
panGesture.PanUpdated += OnPanUpdated;
GestureRecognizers.Add(panGesture);
}
void OnPinchUpdated(object sender, PinchGestureUpdatedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Status == GestureStatus.Started)
{
// Store the current scale factor applied to the wrapped user interface element,
// and zero the components for the center point of the translate transform.
startScale = Content.Scale;
Content.AnchorX = 0;
Content.AnchorY = 0;
}
if (e.Status == GestureStatus.Running)
{
// Calculate the scale factor to be applied.
currentScale += (e.Scale - 1) * startScale;
currentScale = Math.Max(1, currentScale);
// The ScaleOrigin is in relative coordinates to the wrapped user interface element,
// so get the X pixel coordinate.
double renderedX = Content.X + xOffset;
double deltaX = renderedX / Width;
double deltaWidth = Width / (Content.Width * startScale);
double originX = (e.ScaleOrigin.X - deltaX) * deltaWidth;
// The ScaleOrigin is in relative coordinates to the wrapped user interface element,
// so get the Y pixel coordinate.
double renderedY = Content.Y + yOffset;
double deltaY = renderedY / Height;
double deltaHeight = Height / (Content.Height * startScale);
double originY = (e.ScaleOrigin.Y - deltaY) * deltaHeight;
// Calculate the transformed element pixel coordinates.
double targetX = xOffset - (originX * Content.Width) * (currentScale - startScale);
double targetY = yOffset - (originY * Content.Height) * (currentScale - startScale);
// Apply translation based on the change in origin.
Content.TranslationX = targetX.Clamp(-Content.Width * (currentScale - 1), 0);
Content.TranslationY = targetY.Clamp(-Content.Height * (currentScale - 1), 0);
// Apply scale factor
Content.Scale = currentScale;
}
if (e.Status == GestureStatus.Completed)
{
// Store the translation delta's of the wrapped user interface element.
xOffset = Content.TranslationX;
yOffset = Content.TranslationY;
}
}
void OnPanUpdated(object sender, PanUpdatedEventArgs e)
{
switch (e.StatusType)
{
case GestureStatus.Running:
// Translate and ensure we don't pan beyond the wrapped user interface element bounds.
Content.TranslationX = Math.Max(Math.Min(0, x + e.TotalX), -Math.Abs(Content.Width - App.ScreenWidth));
Content.TranslationY = Math.Max(Math.Min(0, y + e.TotalY), -Math.Abs(Content.Height - App.ScreenHeight));
break;
case GestureStatus.Completed:
// Store the translation applied during the pan
x = Content.TranslationX;
y = Content.TranslationY;
Debug.Write("x=" + x.ToString() + " y=" + y.ToString());
break;
}
}
}
I noticed that the way to instantiate this PinchToZoomAndPanContainer class is a little bit different in the sample code from my above hyperlinks, pinch is put in a Grid, while pan is put in an AbsoluteLayout. I tried both for my code, but neither works. I would really appreciate it very much if someone can help me fix it.
