title: xamarin crossplatform canvas
body: <p>I am investigating Xamarin as an option for our crossplatform solution. For us it is critical that we can create our own custom interactive controls.</p>
  
  <p>The examples (<a href="http://devcenter.wintellect.com/jprosise/supercharging-xamarin-forms-with-custom-renderers-part-5" rel="nofollow">http://devcenter.wintellect.com/jprosise/supercharging-xamarin-forms-with-custom-renderers-part-5</a>) I've seen show how to create custom rendered controls. Unfortunately they all essentially show how to render to Canvas differently depending on platform. This is not acceptable for us.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a true crossplatform way to create Xamarin custom rendered controls without writing same drawing logic in each platform specific implementation?</p>
