How to format column using binding in MAUI DataGrid?
The column can be formatted by using StringFormat in the DisplayBinding.
XAML
You can utilize the String format property within the binding to format the column.
<dataGrid:SfDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid"
ColumnWidthMode="Auto"
GridLinesVisibility="Both"
HeaderGridLinesVisibility="Both"
ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}">
<dataGrid:SfDataGrid.Columns>
<dataGrid:DataGridNumericColumn MappingName="EmployeeID" HeaderText="Employee ID"/>
<dataGrid:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Name" />
<dataGrid:DataGridNumericColumn MappingName="Salary"
HeaderText="Salary"
DisplayBinding="{Binding Path=Salary,StringFormat='{}{0:C}'}"/>
</dataGrid:SfDataGrid.Columns>
</dataGrid:SfDataGrid>
C#
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
//Equivalent to the code in the XAMl section
DataGridTextColumn salaryColumn = new DataGridTextColumn() { MappingName = "Salary", HeaderText = "Salary" };
salaryColumn.DisplayBinding = new Binding() { Path = "Salary", StringFormat = "{0:C}" };
dataGrid.Columns.Add(salaryColumn);
