How to add a custom Image Editor in .NET MAUI DataForm (SfDataForm)?

2 mins read

The Syncfusion® .NET MAUI DataForm (SfDataForm) enables the addition of a custom image editor by registering a custom editor type, as demonstrated in this guide.

C#

Use the RegisterEditor method to register the custom image editor within the SfDataForm.

protected override void OnAttachedTo(SfDataForm dataForm)
{
   base.OnAttachedTo(dataForm);
   if (dataForm != null)
   {
       dataForm.RegisterEditor("ProfileImage", new CustomImageEditor(dataForm));
   }
} 

C#

Inherit the interface IDataFormEditor class and customize the image editor using the CreateEditorView, CommitValue, and UpdateReadOnly methods.

public class CustomImageEditor : IDataFormEditor
{
   private SfDataForm customdataForm;
   public CustomImageEditor(SfDataForm customDataForm) 
   {
       this.customdataForm = customDataForm;
   }
   public View CreateEditorView(DataFormItem dataFormItem)
   {
       Image inputView = new Image();
       inputView.Source = "profile.png";
       inputView.HeightRequest= 100;
       inputView.HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center;
       return inputView;
   }
   public void UpdateReadyOnly(DataFormItem dataFormItem)
   {
   }
   public void CommitValue(DataFormItem dataFormItem, View view)
   {
   }
}

Output:
