How to add FloatingActionButton on maps in xamarin.android












0















I am trying to add custom button for locate me for the maps. I came to know we need to use FloatingActionButton, so I have created as following in my layout.



  <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:fab="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:id="@+id/header">
<include
android:id="@+id/mapToolbar"
layout="@layout/toolbar" />
</RelativeLayout>
<Spinner
android:id="@+id/spinner"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:entries="@array/maptype_arrays" />
<fragment
android.id="@+id/map"
android:tag="maptag"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment" />
<android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton
android:id="@+id/fab"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="bottom|left"
android:src="@drawable/locateme_icon"
android:layout_marginRight="15dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="15dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
</LinearLayout>


But Im not getting button on the screen when run this. Is there anything to add along with this.



Thanks in advance.
