Gridview height gets cut

Question

I\'m trying to display 8 items inside a gridview. Sadly, the gridview height is always too little, so that it only shows the first row, and a little part of the second.

Found tacones answer helpfull... so i ported it to C# (Xamarin)

public class ExpandableHeightGridView: GridView
{
    bool _isExpanded = false;

    public ExpandableHeightGridView(Context context) : base(context)
    {            
    }

    public ExpandableHeightGridView(Context context, IAttributeSet attrs) : base(context, attrs)
    {            
    }

    public ExpandableHeightGridView(Context context, IAttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) : base(context, attrs, defStyle)
    {            
    }

    public bool IsExpanded
    {
        get { return _isExpanded; }

        set { _isExpanded = value;  }
    }

    protected override void OnMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)
    {
        // HACK! TAKE THAT ANDROID!
        if (IsExpanded)
        {
            // Calculate entire height by providing a very large height hint.
            // View.MEASURED_SIZE_MASK represents the largest height possible.
            int expandSpec = MeasureSpec.MakeMeasureSpec( View.MeasuredSizeMask, MeasureSpecMode.AtMost);
            base.OnMeasure(widthMeasureSpec,expandSpec);                

            var layoutParameters = this.LayoutParameters;
            layoutParameters.Height = this.MeasuredHeight;
        }
        else
        {
            base.OnMeasure(widthMeasureSpec,heightMeasureSpec);    
        }
    }
}
