Extended CopyLabel control

[Depechie]

Would be great if the current implementation of the CopyLabel control ( in iOS project ) would have following extra extensions: highlight the label control with a given colour if the Copy popmenu is visible.

I've already tried to add this behaviour by adding following code in the private void OnLongPress(UIGestureRecognizer recognizer) method:

if (recognizer.State == UIGestureRecognizerState.Began)
{
    this.BackgroundColor = new UIColor(red: 0.78f, green: 0.78f, blue: 0.80f, alpha: 1.0f);

    BecomeFirstResponder();

    var copyMenu = UIMenuController.SharedMenuController;

    copyMenu.SetTargetRect(Bounds, this);
    copyMenu.ArrowDirection = UIMenuControllerArrowDirection.Default;
    copyMenu.SetMenuVisible(true, true);

    _notification = UIMenuController.Notifications.ObserveDidHideMenu((sender, args) =>
    {
        this.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Clear;
        _notification.Dispose();
    });
}

But somehow this doesn't seem 100% correct. Because by adding this code, on the first longpress I always get the ObserveDidHideMenu too ( and only the first time ).

So any tips on this?

Hmm could be this phenomenon is only in the iOS simulator... on an actual device the above code is working great.

Would be great if the highlight colour could be set through a property though... and also be set to the default iOS text highlight colour if nothing is provided in this property...
