Ffimageloading: FontImageSource support

Created on 9 May 2019  路  10Comments  路  Source: luberda-molinet/FFImageLoading

Description

I just tried to implement a very basic example of FontImageSource.
https://montemagno.com/using-font-icons-in-xamarin-forms-goodbye-images-hello-fonts/
But when I change from classic image into FFImageLoading, is crashing with

Specified cast is not valid. (System.InvalidCastException) at Xamarin.Forms.ImageElement.OnImageSourceChanging

So, the question is if does the control support this kind of source.
Thanks

@daniel-luberda Hi there, is there any eta when this might be avaible? Thanks!

I would love to have this too.

+1 for this

I'm on board for this support as well :)

Same here, a must have!

@daniel-luberda do you need help with this implementation? Is there a branch already to work on it? Would you like me to tackle it?

On news on this?

@daniel-luberda Could you reply to other posts as to when this will be implemented please?
If you need help or wish to farm out the work then please say so.

Thank you

Same for me, it says :
image

As a workaround, I use VisualStateManager to show/hide default image component.
