Could you share sample code for how to use it ?

 

[DonManfred]

No. I´m lazy. Do it yourself please.

Hi, is the badge clickable by itself?

Hi, is the badge clickable by itself?

Sorry, the lib does not provide adding a clicklistener

 

[ykucuk]

No. I´m lazy. Do it yourself please.

I wish i can do but i really dont know how to do it.
Anyway thanks for your reply

 

[DonManfred]

I wish i can do but i really dont know how to do it.

Open the designer, place the CUSTOMVIEW over a normal view.
in your app load the layout and then call objectname.Text = "25"

Maybe you should go over the beginners guide again.

It is decribed how to create a layout or how to add a customview to the layout.

Hi,
I implemented this notifcation badge in an app (the badge is displayed on a menu button as the example you provided), it works well on few devices (samsung galaxy S4, samsung galaxy tab 2 for instance) but on few other devices (ex OnePlus One),the badge is displayed under the menu button. I tried to use BringToFront method but it didn't fix the problem (in this case, the badge disappeared).
Do you know from what the pb could comming from ?
