I am using a FlexLayout to try and make buttons wrap around. It works but there is no space between rows of the buttons.



Does anyone have any idea how I can ensure there's a space between. Here's the XAML that I am using and below is what it looks like:



<StackLayout Orientation="Vertical" 
BackgroundColor="{DynamicResource GridBackgroundColor}"
Spacing="0"
Padding="20" >
<FlexLayout x:Name="flexLayout"
Wrap="Wrap"
JustifyContent="SpaceAround" >
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Introduction" />
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Learning" />
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Home" />
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Help" />
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Settings" />
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Dictionary" />
<Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Padding="10" Margin="5" Text="Cards" />

</FlexLayout>
</StackLayout>

          Solution:



          Try to add HeightRequest and/or WidthRequest of your button.



           <ContentPage.Resources>
          <Style TargetType="Button">
          <Setter Property="HeightRequest" Value="40"></Setter>
          <Setter Property="Margin" Value="5"></Setter>
          </Style>

          </ContentPage.Resources>

          <StackLayout Orientation="Vertical"
          BackgroundColor="{DynamicResource GridBackgroundColor}"
          Spacing="0"
          Padding="20">
          <FlexLayout
          Wrap="Wrap"
          JustifyContent="SpaceAround"
          Direction="Row">
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Introduction" />
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Learning" />
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Home" />
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Help" />
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Settings" />
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Dictionary" />
          <Button BackgroundColor="Silver" Text="Cards" />

          </FlexLayout>
