How to add sub shape file layer for ImageryLayer in Xamarin.Forms SfMaps?

1 min read

The Layers property in the Xamarin.Forms Maps control is used to add imagery layer. Using SubLayers support, you can add sub shape file layer over the imager layer to highlight the map or show the road or river view on map.

The following code snippet demonstrates how to add sub shape file layer over ImageryLayer.

XAML

<maps:SfMaps >
    <maps:SfMaps.Layers>
        <maps:ImageryLayer> 
            <maps:ImageryLayer.Sublayers>
                <maps:ShapeFileLayer Uri="africa.shp">
                    <maps:ShapeFileLayer.ShapeSettings>
                        <maps:ShapeSetting ShapeFill="Red"/>
                    </maps:ShapeFileLayer.ShapeSettings>
                </maps:ShapeFileLayer>
            </maps:ImageryLayer.Sublayers>           
        </maps:ImageryLayer>
    </maps:SfMaps.Layers>
    
</maps:SfMaps>

SfMaps maps = new SfMaps();
ImageryLayer imageryLayer = new ImageryLayer();
ShapeFileLayer shapeFileLayer = new ShapeFileLayer();
shapeFileLayer.Uri = "africa.shp";
shapeFileLayer.ShapeSettings.ShapeFill = Color.Red;
imageryLayer.Sublayers.Add(shapeFileLayer);
maps.Layers.Add(imageryLayer);
