How to Customize the DropDownBackground and DropDownTextColor in .NET MAUI Autocomplete?

The .NET MAUI Autocomplete control allows you to customize the dropdown background and text color using theme keys. Specifically, you can use the SfAutocompleteDropdownBackground and SfAutocompleteDropdownTextColor theme keys in the Resource Dictionary. Here’s how you can achieve this:

XAML

<ContentPage xmlns:editors="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Inputs;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Inputs"
             xmlns:themes="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Themes;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Inputs">
    <ContentPage.BindingContext>
        <local:EmployeeViewModel x:Name="viewModel" />
    </ContentPage.BindingContext>
    <ContentPage.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
                <themes:SfAutocompleteStyles></themes:SfAutocompleteStyles>
                <ResourceDictionary>
                    <x:String x:Key="SfAutoCompleteTheme">CommonTheme</x:String>
                    <Color x:Key="SfAutocompleteDropdownBackground">YellowGreen</Color>
                    <Color x:Key="SfAutocompleteDropdownTextColor">Red</Color>
                </ResourceDictionary>
            </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </ContentPage.Resources>
    <StackLayout Spacing="10" VerticalOptions="Center">
        <editors:SfAutocomplete Placeholder="Enter an employee"
                                TextMemberPath="Name"
                                DisplayMemberPath="Name"
                                ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}"
                                WidthRequest="300"
                                HeightRequest="40"
                                x:Name="autoComplete">
        </editors:SfAutocomplete>
    </StackLayout>
</ContentPage>
