Show the password with EditText

Question

I use an EditText to enter password. And a CheckBox to show password or not. Below function is the part:

public void ShowPassword() {
    if (cb.isChecked()) {
          


        

Answer 1

on the off chance that you are using Xamarin (Visual Studio Mac as it's now called) you can achieve it this way (I used a Switch)

 /// 

 /// Toggles the password.
 /// 
 /// Field.
 /// If set to true is checked.
 private void TogglePassword(TextView field, bool isChecked)
 {
      /// masks with password character
      if (isChecked)
      {
           field.TransformationMethod = new PasswordTransformationMethod();
      }
      /// unmasks password
      else
      {
           field.TransformationMethod = null;
      }

Then on your Switch .click do something like this

switch.Click += delegate {
            TogglePassword(textView, switch.Checked);
        };
