Trying to fire a command inside a stacklayout with itemssource. I wonder why the NavigateToProductListViewShopTappedCommand is not getting fired.
Tried multiple command approaches:
1)
Command="{Binding Source={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:MyShopsListViewModel}}, Path=NavigateToProductListViewShopTappedCommand}"
Command="{Binding BindingContext.NavigateToProductListViewShopTappedCommand, Source={x:Reference Page}}"
Command="{Binding Path=BindingContext.NavigateToProductListViewShopTappedCommand, Source={x:Reference Page}}"
None are not working
Code:

As you can see this is the control template I'm using for the MyShopsPage. This is a shop card. Inside this shop card I already had an StackLayout.GestureRecognizers. Somehow when I was clicking on the control template, I was actually clicking on this.
I always thought everything flows from top to bottom in events, but this seems different. Something that is on top on something else does not mean anything in xaml.
