Proposal: Visual Studio xaml editor is not showing color inline preview when using AppThemeBinding in Xamarin
See original GitHub issueRelated link to Xamarin.Forms repo: https://github.com/xamarin/Xamarin.Forms/pull/11012 Themes for Xamarin.Forms enables to fast implementation of dark/light themes.
when using for example:
<Label Text="Xamarin.Forms!" TextColor="{AppThemeBinding Dark=#2196F3, Light=#2196F3}"/>
Summary
Visual studio should display an incline color preview near beside Dark=#2196F3" and Light=#2196F3 the same way it did for something like: <Label TextColor="#2196F3"/>
Rationale
- Because you are setting a color hex code it make sens to have preview inline for it.
Note: I am not able to report this thru visual studio because of some session issues, if this is not the right place please someone report this as a visual studio issue.
