How to customize the .NET MAUI Numeric Entry style using its visual states?

4 mins read

In .NET MAUI Numeric Entry, you can customize the style by utilizing visual states. This article will guide you through the process of changing the style based on different visual states such as Normal, Disabled, and Focused.

Step 1: Define the Style in ResourceDictionary

First, define the style within the ResourceDictionary of your ContentPage. This is where you specify the visual states for the Numeric Entry control.

XAML

<ContentPage.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <Style x:Key="numericEntry" TargetType="inputs:SfNumericEntry">
            <Setter Property="VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups">
                <VisualStateGroupList>
                    <VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
                        <VisualState x:Name="Normal">
                            <VisualState.Setters>
                                <Setter Property="Background" Value="Pink" />
                            </VisualState.Setters>
                        </VisualState>
                        <VisualState x:Name="Disabled">
                            <VisualState.Setters>
                                <Setter Property="Background" Value="DarkCyan" />
                            </VisualState.Setters>
                        </VisualState>
                        <VisualState x:Name="Focused">
                            <VisualState.Setters>
                                <Setter Property="Background" Value="Yellow" />
                            </VisualState.Setters>
                        </VisualState>
                    </VisualStateGroup>
                </VisualStateGroupList>
            </Setter>
        </Style>
    </ResourceDictionary>
</ContentPage.Resources>

Step 2: Apply the Style to Numeric Entry

After defining the style, apply it to the Numeric Entry control by setting the Style property to the key defined in the ResourceDictionary.

XAML

<inputs:SfNumericEntry WidthRequest="200"
                       HeightRequest="50"                         
                       Value="10"
                       Style="{StaticResource numericEntry}"/>
