Using DataTrigger on MenuItem to display different state in Xamarin.Forms

Question

I'm trying to use DataTrigger on a MenuItem inside a ViewCell in Xamarin.Forms. The ListView displays a list of conversations. If the conversation is deleted, I want the menu item to show "Restore". If the conversation is not deleted, I want to show "Delete".

On build I get the error:

Error: Position 12:49. Can't resolve Clicked on MenuItem

Your issue is with this line:

<Setter Property="Clicked" Value="OnDelete" />

Remove this line - MenuItem has no Clicked property. Clicked is an Event.

You should be binding to the Clicked event in the MenuItem tag, eg:

<MenuItem CommandParameter="{Binding Id}" Command="{Binding OnDelete}">
