Native markdown rendering on top of Xamarin.Forms & Markdig.

markdownview's Issues

Is it possible to set the theme via Styles from a Resource Dictionary

I can see that you can set the theme via the bindable property MarkdownView.Theme which is great.

The issue comes when handling your application wide light/dark theme.
Currently I use the method of a Resource Dictionary using Styles and AppThemeBinding which appears to be the path Xamarin is suggesting now. I cannot see how I can use a Resource Dictionary and Styles to theme the MarkdownView.

My aim is for all "theme" management to be implemented using the Resource Dictionary/Styles method.
Is that at all possible with MarkdownView?

Thanks in advance.

Consider future of RelativeUrlHost

• It's legacy of origin plugin
• Consider whether to remain it or replace it by better solution

Support for mailto: and tel:

raises System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException

This one was hard to resolve as you don't get much more detail but I believe I found the issue.

1. Start with a standard Xamarin Forms new app.
2. Add your nuGet which is currently v1.5.2 and I note you have a dependancy on Markdig >=0.15.0.
3. Follow your sample doco and add MarkdownView to a page. If you spin up the app the page renders fine with your control.
4. Now add the nuGet Markdig which is at v0.25.0.
5. Spin up the app and when you nav to the page with the MarkdownView control you will get the exception.
6. Remove the Markdig nuGet and error goes away.

I assume following those steps the latest nuGet of Markdig is in play and there is a breaking change that MarkdownView does not like.

For me this is not a big issue as I can use the version of Markdig pulled in by the MarkdownView but one day v0.15.0 of Markdig may be simply too old.

This error occurs on both iOS and Droid platforms.

Let me know if you require further details.
