How to customize the check box editor color in .NET MAUI DataForm (SfDataForm)?
Syncfusion .NET MAUI DataForm (SfDataForm) allows us to customize the editors. In this article, we will discuss how to change the color of the check box editor by using the Color property of the DataFormCheckBoxItem in the GenerateDataFormItem event when the AutoGenerateItems is true.
Initiate the GenerateDataFormItem event handler to the OnGenerateDataFormItem event.
C#:
private SfDataForm dataForm;
protected override void OnAttachedTo(ContentPage bindable)
{
base.OnAttachedTo(bindable);
this.dataForm = bindable.FindByName<SfDataForm>("dataForm");
if (dataForm != null )
{
dataForm.ItemsSourceProvider = new ItemSourceProvider();
dataForm.RegisterEditor("Gender", DataFormEditorType.RadioGroup);
dataForm.RegisterEditor("Address", DataFormEditorType.MultilineText);
dataForm.RegisterEditor("Country", DataFormEditorType.AutoComplete);
dataForm.RegisterEditor("City", DataFormEditorType.ComboBox);
dataForm.RegisterEditor("ReadyToRelocate", DataFormEditorType.Switch);
dataForm.RegisterEditor("BirthDate", DataFormEditorType.Date);
dataForm.GenerateDataFormItem += OnGenerateDataFormItem;
}
}
Using the OnGenerateDataFormItem event, on checking the data item is the DataFormCheckBoxItem, set the color to the check box with the Color property according to the requirement.
C#:
private void OnGenerateDataFormItem(object sender, GenerateDataFormItemEventArgs e)
{
if (e.DataFormItem!= null)
{
if (e.DataFormItem.FieldName == "FirstGraduate" && e.DataFormItem is DataFormCheckBoxItem checkBoxItem)
{
checkBoxItem.Color = Colors.DarkCyan;
}
}
}
The default value of color is the default(Color).
