Xamarin.iOS - ImageInverter

  • Code Sample
Browse code

This sample code shows how to use an Action extension with a view controller. The app shares an image through a UIActivityViewController while the extension can be used to flip vertically the shared image and return it to the host app. The host app and extension are communicating using NSExtensionItem and NSItemProvider. The extension shows the basic interaction with the NSExtensionContext.

Instructions

  • Launch the app and tap the share icon at the bottom left corner, the iOS sharing view should appear

  • Scroll through the 3rd row of icons and look for one marked ImageInverterExt. If you do not find it, click “More” (with the “…” icon) in that list, and enable ImageInverterExt it from the settings screen that appears.

  • Tap on ImageInverterExt and a window will appear displaying the original image from the app vertically inverted.

  • Tap “Done” in the top right corner of the window to return to the app’s main view.

  • The app should now display the vertically inverted image ImageInverterExt.
