Use two images in Xamarin Forms Android Splash Screen

Question

I am completely new to Xamarin Forms Cross Platform Development. I wan to implement Whatsapp like Splash Screen. See below

With my existing code I am not able to use two different images in a splash screen. Followed the normal splash screen tutorials and able to generate simple splash with single image. here piece of code from my Splash.XMl (theme file)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
  <item>
    <color android:color="@color/primary"></color>
  </item>

  <item>
    <bitmap android:src="@drawable/Logo" android:gravity="center" android:tileMode="disabled"></bitmap>
    <bitmap android:src="@drawable/ack" android:gravity="bottom" android:tileMode="disabled"></bitmap>

  </item>


</layer-list>

I used two different <item></item>but no success. Please help. Thanks in Advance.

Answer 1

Would you try with this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item>
           <color android:color="@android:color/white" />
    </item>
    <item>
        <bitmap
          android:src="@drawable/xamarin_small"
          android:gravity="center"/>
    </item>
    <item android:bottom="40dp">
        <bitmap
          android:src="@drawable/microsoft"
          android:gravity="center_horizontal|bottom"/>
    </item>
</layer-list>

With the code above I am able to display the two images as part of the background for the launcher.

Hope this helps.-
