xamarin forms uri image not resizing

Question

In my xamarin forms project, I'm trying to resize an image from a uri. Problem is anything I try to resize the image is not working. I've tried adjusting the following: heightrequest, widthrequest, Fill, fillAndExpand, placing it inside of another stacklayout ect. Ive tried using a local image from the resources folder and the image resizes fine, so this is only an issue with an image from a uri.

Answer 1

Not sure why this works, but placing the image inside of a grid, then setting the desired size in the grid resizes the image.
