How to add row with auto scrolling behavior in .NET MAUI SfDataGrid?

This article explains how to add a new row to the Syncfusion .NET MAUI DataGrid with automatic scrolling behavior.

To automatically scroll the DataGrid when a new row is added to the collection at runtime, use the ScrollToRowIndex method. This method scrolls the view to the last row in the DataGrid, ensuring the newly added row is visible to the user.

xaml

 <ContentPage.BindingContext>
    <local:OrderInfoRepository x:Name="viewModel" />
</ContentPage.BindingContext>

<Grid RowDefinitions="50,*">
    <Button Text="AddRow" WidthRequest="200"
         Clicked="Button_Clicked" />
    
    <syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid" Grid.Row="1"
                           ColumnWidthMode="Fill"
                        ItemsSource="{Binding OrderInfoCollection}">
        
    </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>
</Grid>

xaml.cs

public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
    public MainPage()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        dataGrid.Loaded += DataGrid_Loaded;
    }

    private void DataGrid_Loaded(object? sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        dataGrid.View!.CollectionChanged += MainPage_CollectionChanged;
    }

    private async void MainPage_CollectionChanged(object? sender, System.Collections.Specialized.NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Action == NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Add)
        {
            await Task.Delay(500);
            await dataGrid.ScrollToRowIndex(viewModel.OrderInfoCollection.Count - 1);
        }
    }

    private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        OrderInfo order = new OrderInfo("2001", "Andrew Fuller", "UK", "BLONP", "London");
        viewModel.OrderInfoCollection.Add(order);
    }
}
