Bind Commands.Tap from inside bound list in xaml

[mrdnote]

Any idea why this isn't working? I'm trying to setup binding from xaml like this:

<ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
         xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
         x:Name="Detail"

    <!-- irrelevant code snipped -->
    <local:BindableStackLayout

    <!-- irrelevant code snipped -->
    <StackLayout 
        xe:TouchEffect.Color="{StaticResource NavigationPrimary}" 
        xe:Commands.Tap="{Binding PromotionTapCommand, Source={x:Reference Detail}}" 
        xe:Commands.TapParameter="{Binding Id}">

In code behind:

    public ICommand PromotionTapCommand  { get; set; } = new Command<string>(PromotionTapped);

    private static void PromotionTapped(string value)
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }

But the event is not fired. If I use this principle it works:

Commands.SetTap(itemTemplate, new Command(() => 
{
        throw new NotImplementedException();
}));

But this involves a lot of event forwarding. I prefer if I could specify the commands in xaml.

Also when I put the binding on a view directly in the page it works. So there must be something with bounded lists and your component thats not playing well together.

Thanks!

Could you make a example app with all your example?
I don't see whole point. Maybe you need set in command handle method getting object instead string. Or something else. I think in some step you did something wrong, I just today using this lib in my projects, including in bounded lists.

Looks like you were right. My parameter was an int, but I declared it as string in the command.. Seems that the framework doesn't match it to the command in that case.

Thanks for the help!!
