MvvmCross: MvxImageViewLoader how to set DefaultIm

Question

How can I set the DefaultImagePath on MvxImageViewLoader?

How can I get the LocalResourcePath for an UImage?

 var imageViewLoader = new MvxImageViewLoader(() => imageView);
 imageViewLoader.DefaultImagePath = UIImage.FromBundle("images/Default.png");
 imageViewLoader.ErrorImagePath = UIImage.FromBundle("images/Error.png");

Answer 1

Could not get the above to work, the below though worked right away:

imageViewLoader.DefaultImagePath = NSBundle.MainBundle.PathForResource("Cover", "png");
imageViewLoader.ErrorImagePath = NSBundle.MainBundle.PathForResource("Cover", "png");

Answer 2

Using resource image paths with is discussed in Using MvxImageViewLoader to load a resource image, is it possible? using the res: prefix

 imageViewLoader.DefaultImagePath = ("res:images/Default.png");

There has also been a recent question saying ErrorImagePath was not working correctly in some http error cases - Adding user agent header to image download request - but no reproduction/issue has been made on this yet.
