How to wrap the text of the tab header in .NET MAUI Tab View?

The .NET MAUI Tab View allows you to organize content into tabs, providing a user-friendly interface. This section will guide you through the process of wrapping text in the tab headers to ensure a clean presentation, especially when dealing with longer text.

Step 1: XAML Configuration
Define XAML to include proper configurations for wrapping text in the tab headers. Ensure that the LineBreakMode property is set to WordWrap on the Label within the HeaderItemTemplate.

Step 2: Verify Text Wrapping
Setting the LineBreakMode to WordWrap allows the text to wrap within the available space. The MaxLines property can be adjusted to control the maximum number of lines before wrapping occurs. In the provided example, it is set to 2, meaning the text will wrap if it exceeds two lines.

XAML

<tabView:SfTabView ItemsSource="{Binding TabItems}" TabBarHeight="80">
     <tabView:SfTabView.HeaderItemTemplate>
         <DataTemplate>
         <StackLayout>
                 <Label Text="{Binding Name}" 
                        TextColor="Green" 
                        Padding="5,10,10,10" 
                        LineBreakMode="WordWrap" 
                        MaxLines="2" 
                        WidthRequest="100"/>
         </StackLayout>
         </DataTemplate>
     </tabView:SfTabView.HeaderItemTemplate>
     <tabView:SfTabView.ContentItemTemplate>
         <DataTemplate>
             <Label TextColor="Black"  
                    Text="{Binding ID}" />
         </DataTemplate>
     </tabView:SfTabView.ContentItemTemplate>
 </tabView:SfTabView>
