Description

This article shows how to create a full screen Popup control.

Solution

The RadPopup control has a PlacementTarget property which defines an element relative to which the popup is positioned when it is open. For more information on this check here.

In order to achieve 100% width you could attach it to the page (the relative element). For example:

<ContentPage.Content>


    <Button HorizontalOptions="Center"
            VerticalOptions="Start"
            BackgroundColor="#7A9BFF"
            TextColor="White"
            Text="Show popup"
            Clicked="ShowPopup"
            x:Name="button"/>

</ContentPage.Content>
<telerikPrimitives:RadPopup.Popup>
    <telerikPrimitives:RadPopup x:Name="popup"
                                Placement="Center">
        <telerikPrimitives:RadBorder CornerRadius="6" 
                                        HeightRequest="500"
                                        BackgroundColor="#93D7FF"
                                        BorderColor="#7A9BFF"
                                        Padding="10">
            <Label Text="With Telerik Popup for Xamarin you could easily add modal popups to your application in order to draw attention to important information or receive user input." />
        </telerikPrimitives:RadBorder>
    </telerikPrimitives:RadPopup>
</telerikPrimitives:RadPopup.Popup>

And lets open the Popup when the button is Clicked:

private void ShowPopup(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    popup.IsOpen = true;
}

When the popup is defined in XAML it should always be attached to an element (using RadPopup.Popup attached property) and this element is considered as its PlacementTarget. In the example above the placement target of the Popup is the page.
