Answer 1

i am able to get drawable image for bitmap decode resource. I used this code.

string imagefileName = "imgimge.png";
                        // Remove the file extention from the image filename
                        imagefileName = imagefileName.Replace(".jpg", "").Replace(".png", "");

                        // Retrieving the local Resource ID from the name
                        int id = (int)typeof(Resource.Drawable).GetField(imagefileName).GetValue(null);

                        // Converting Drawable Resource to Bitmap
                        var originalImage = BitmapFactory.DecodeResource(Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Context.Resources, id);
