Save Xamarin.Forms.VisualElement to a bitmap image

Question

Is it possible to render a VisualElement as an image?

I'd like to save screenshots of some of my UI's elements in my Xamarin.Forms application.

You can't. Xamarin does not have that kind of feature. You should write a Renderer for your UIComponent.

Fortunately there is an Objective-C iOS implementation, and an Android one as well. You can inspire from them.
