Avatar with initial and custom font icon

[mobileguy]

Hi

Wondering if its possible to have an avatar view with initials and with a badge at the bottom mapped to a custom fonticon rather than a badgeicon?

Does the badge supports font icons?

thanks

Hi Mobileguy, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion.

We have analyzed the reported query and you can achieve this by using a SfBadgeView. We have created a sample by using a SfAvatarView in the content of SfBadgeView and using the font icon for the badge. Please have the sample with code snippet from following. 

  

Code snippet: 

<badge:SfBadgeView VerticalOptions="Center" 

               HorizontalOptions="Center" BadgeText="&#xe700;" 

               HeightRequest="65" WidthRequest="65"> 

  

                <badge:SfBadgeView.Content> 

                    <Grid> 

                    <sfavatar:SfAvatarView ContentType="Initials" AvatarName="Alex" 

                           VerticalOptions="Center" HorizontalOptions="Center"   

                           HeightRequest="50" CornerRadius="25" WidthRequest="50" /> 

                    </Grid> 

                </badge:SfBadgeView.Content> 

  

                <badge:SfBadgeView.BadgeSettings> 

                  <badge:BadgeSetting Offset="-5,-5" BadgePosition="BottomRight" 

                       FontFamily="{StaticResource fontFamily}"/> 

                </badge:SfBadgeView.BadgeSettings> 

  

</badge:SfBadgeView>

Thank you very much for your sample!!

It does exactly what I need .

I guess for resizing on various devices is it a case of setting the avatar size accordingly?

thanks again

Hi Mobileguy, 

 

Thanks for your update. 

 

We would like to let you know that you can customize the actual size of AvatarView by using its HieghtRequest and WidthRequest property even it is rendering with different density devices.
