How to Customize .NET MAUI CheckBox Using Visual State?

This section explains how to use the VisualStateManager to customize the appearance of a .NET MAUI CheckBox in different states. You can define visual states to control how the CheckBox appears when it is Checked, UnChecked, or in an Intermediate state.

Step 1: Define Visual States

First, define the visual states for your CheckBox. In this example, we create three visual states: Checked, Unchecked, and Intermediate. These states will determine how the CheckBox is styled in various conditions.

XAML

<button:SfCheckBox Text="CheckBox" IsThreeState="True">
        <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
            <VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
                <VisualState x:Name="Checked">
                    <VisualState.Setters>
                        <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="Blue"/>
                        <Setter Property="CheckedColor" Value="Blue"/>
                    </VisualState.Setters>
                </VisualState>
                <VisualState x:Name="Unchecked">
                    <VisualState.Setters>
                        <Setter Property="TextColor" Value="#ea3737"/>
                        <Setter Property="UncheckedColor" Value="#ea3737"/>
                    </VisualState.Setters>
                </VisualState>
                <VisualState x:Name="Intermediate">
                    <VisualState.Setters>
                        <Setter Property="CheckedColor" Value="Blue"/>
                        <Setter Property="Text" Value="Intermediate State"/>
                    </VisualState.Setters>
                </VisualState>
            </VisualStateGroup>
        </VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
 </button:SfCheckBox>

Output

Checked State

UnChecked State

Intermediate State
