Question

User43424 posted

In porting some iOS code I found on StackOverflow I was able to come up with the following code for rounded corners on labels:

headerLabel.Frame = new RectangleF( 0, this.ContentView.Frame.Top, this.ContentView.Frame.Width, this.ContentView.Frame.Height ); var leftShapeLayer = new CAShapeLayer(); leftShapeLayer.Path = UIBezierPath.FromRoundedRect( this.ContentView.Frame, 8f ).CGPath; this.headerLabel.Layer.Mask = leftShapeLayer; this.headerLabel.Layer.MasksToBounds = true; this.headerLabel.Layer.ShouldRasterize = true; this.headerLabel.Layer.RasterizationScale = UIScreen.MainScreen.Scale;

Does anyone know how to work this sort of magic on Labels and ContentViews?
