I am developing a PCL project which involves using ListViews with group headers to make it easier for the user to distinguish which list items are where based upon which category they are in. This all works fine apart from one aspect: on iOS and WP8, having this type of grouped ListView automatically includes a jump-list which allows the user to tap on a category and be navigated right to it. However with the application that I am developing, I do not foresee there being enough list items to warrant having a jump-list and would therefore like to remove it. Furthermore, when the jump-list is displayed it is thrown onto the right-hand side of the list and squashes the actual ListView to the left side of the screen, wasting screen space. Through looking for solutions to this issue, it appears that the jump-list is also included in the WP8 build as well, and if this is the case I would like a solution that disables this jump-list as well.
At this point, I think that the only possibility to resolve this issue is to find an alternative to using a grouped ListView that produces the exact same UI setup minus the unnecessary jump-list. Either that or one of you comes up with some sort of miracle solution which I could not find through searching through both the Xamarin forums, StackOverflow, and Google for the past few days... but I'm not too hopeful of that. Actually, if there is any way to set the content of the strings displayed in the jump-lists to be totally empty always that might be another possible solution, but I'm wary that this will still force the right-side of the ListView inwards.
I don't have a picture of my app I can use at the moment, but here's another forum post which includes a picture that sort-of describes my situation. The blue text to the right of the list which displays "View Notes" and "More" is the jump-list I am talking about, though I do not experience the issue being described in the thread (my listview displays the category properly in the list unlike the OP of the other thread). Additionally, here is the code from the view which is giving me trouble (in picture form as the forums are not playing nice with XAML code):
Thanks in advance!
