        private ScaleGestureDetector mScaleDetector;    
        private static float mScaleFactor = 1.0f;   


        public ZoomView (Context context) : base (context)
        {

        {
            mScaleDetector.OnTouchEvent(e);

            return true;
        }

        protected override void OnDraw(Android.Graphics.Canvas canvas)
        {
            base.OnDraw(canvas);

            canvas.Save();    
            canvas.Scale(mScaleFactor, mScaleFactor);
            canvas.Restore();

        {
            mScaleFactor *= d
