Summary
Currently we can not place toolbaritems on the left side, on default. It's possible to write a renderer for the ContentPage on ios (see https://timeyoutake.it/2016/01/02/creating-a-left-toolbaritem-in-xamarin-forms/).
But it would be nice if we can place toolbaritems on the left on default.
API Changes
In order to place a toolbaritem on the left, a property is added to the ToolbarItem class:
ToolbarItem toolbarItem = new ToolbarItem();
toolbarItem.Position = ToolbarItemPosition.Left;
public enum ToolbarItemPosition
{
Left, Right
}
where ToolbarItemPosition.Right is the default.
Intended Use Case
We can use this in every situation where you want a toolbarItem on the left side. A very common situation is a detailpage with "Cancel" on the left side and "Save" on the right side:
