VisualElement.MinimumHeightRequest Property
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets or sets a value which overrides the minimum height the element will request during layout.
public double MinimumHeightRequest { get; set; }member this.MinimumHeightRequest : double with get, setProperty Value
System.Double
The minimum height the element requires. Default value is -1.
Remarks
MinimumHeightRequest is used to override the results of a call to GetSizeRequest(Double, Double) by setting the minimum height property. This causes overflow handling to shrink this element to its minimum height before elements who do not have a minimum size set.
The following example sets the MinimumHeightRequest to enable an image to shrink below its normal size.
void Build (string veryLongString)
{
var label = new Label {Text = veryLongString};
var image = new Image {Source = "image500x500.png"};
image.MinimumHeightRequest = 20;
Content = new StackLayout {
Children {
label,
image
}
};
