Can I combine the creation of an element and adding a new element together in Xamarin.Forms?
I have this code:
var layout = new StackLayout
Orientation = StackOrientation.Vertical,
Spacing = 0
;
layout.Children.Add(new HeaderTemplate
Header = Settings.cc.LongText().ToUpper()
);
Can these two statements be combined in some way?
@GeraldVersluis ?
Children is an IList<View>, so yes you can add a comma separated list of children in StackLayout constructor via the initializer shorthand. Now I have no idea what a HeaderTemplate custom(?) class is (ListView has one), so assuming it is a View subclass, that would work fine. )– SushiHangover

Children
IList<View>
HeaderTemplate
@SushiHangover my mistake, you are right. As pointed out by Limbani Akashs' answer. That is the way to do it :)

@GeraldVersluis Totally missed Limbani's answer ;-) Guess I did not scroll down far enough, yes, that is it...

Try this.
var layout = new StackLayout
Orientation = StackOrientation.Vertical,
Spacing = 0,
Children =
new HeaderTemplate
Header = Settings.cc.LongText().ToUpper()
;

Not possible, you will need an instance before being able to add children. There is no support in C# at this time to do that from the initialization.
