Not working: I have added this nuget and tried to use it but it not worked

[divyesh008]

I have added the latest stable version of this nuget and set the things from the readme as shown in git repo but I'm getting this error while adding extension to my Xaml page

Note: I have used this in FlowListView

[felipebaltazar]

Hey @divyesh008 !
Did you declare the skeleton namespace, at top of page?

xmlns:extension="clr-namespace:Xamarin.Forms.Skeleton;assembly=Xamarin.Forms.Skeleton"

You can check a working example here:
/~https://github.com/TBertuzzi/ExemploSkeleton/blob/master/ExemploSkeleton/MainPage.xaml

[divyesh008]

Yes

[felipebaltazar]

@divyesh008 can you provide a ".sln" reproducing this problem?
Maybe I can solve this problem when I can reproduce it

I am having the same issue. It looks like it is performing the animation once the data is loaded but I don't see the skeleton loading.

Hello @alistairdyer, thanks for the reply
I tryed to reproduce the error, but seems its working.
I dont known what is "material:MaterialCard", can you create a simple ".sln" reproducing this issue ?

[AnthonyLatty]

@felipebaltazar material:MaterialCard is from the Google Material Components for XF. I guess you cant load animations through its components but with regular XF components it works

@AnthonyLatty I verified that this component (MaterialCard) inherits from View, it should work correctly.
A project reproducing the problem would be important to try to solve it
