or, what I really need is to have a command property on an image, at the least an click event?
Maybe try this one:

thanks a lot.
why is there no pointer to this on the main xamarin documentation pages. it should be.
Ive asked on the forums, ive asked the success team for any info like this. but nothing.
Why does it take so long to get to the fact that this exists?
@michaelwalmsley this is a open source project by the community , it's not official by Xamarin, it jus a toolkit of controls of services the Xamarin community is sharing and maintaining.

An old thread but worth leaving an answer here.
<Button BackgroundColor="Green" TextColor="White" Text="Scan" Command="{Binding DoNextCommand}" AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds=".5,350,160,60" AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="XProportional" BorderRadius="30"> <Button.Image> <OnPlatform x:TypeArguments="FileImageSource" iOS="[email protected]" Android="btn_next.png" /> </Button.Image> </Button>I created a custom control called XImgBtn

you can also pass the desired variables to the click handler using "XibId" (to pass an Int) & "StrParam" (to pass a string) when you have multiple XimgBtns.
