1 min read

In General, we have get the view of NumericTextBox is only from Activity class file. Here SfNumericTextBox provides a support to get the view of same from layout file. The following steps are required to get the view of NumericTextBox from layout file.

Step 1: Create a Xamarin.android solution with needed assembly

Step 2: Create a new layout file to add our Syncfusion ‘s NumericTextBox control

Step 3: Create an instance of NumericTextBox in layout file as well as add this layout as currently viewing activity by setting this layout as “SetContentView” as follows

Layout File:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"android:orientation="vertical"android:layout_width="match_parent"android:layout_height="match_parent">
<com.syncfusion.numerictextbox.SfNumericTextBox    android:id="@+id/layoutNumeric"    android:layout_height="wrap_content"    android:layout_width="fill_parent" />
</LinearLayout>

MainActivity.cs File:

using Android.App;using Android.Widget;using Android.OS;namespace NumericTextBoxLayout{[Activity(Label = "NumericTextBoxLayout", MainLauncher = true, Icon = "@mipmap/icon")]public class MainActivity : Activity{    protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)    {        base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);        SetContentView(Resource.Layout.NumericLayout);    }}}

Step 4: Only the declaration of control is allowed in layout file. Properties have been set by created an instance of NumericTextBox with layout control id.

using Android.App;
using Android.Widget;
using Android.OS;
using Com.Syncfusion.Numerictextbox;

namespace NumericTextBoxLayout
{
[Activity(Label = "NumericTextBoxLayout", MainLauncher = true, Icon = "@mipmap/icon")]
public class MainActivity : Activity
{

    protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);

        SetContentView(Resource.Layout.NumericLayout);

        //Create an instance with layout's NumericTextBox id

         SfNumericTextBox sfNuemricTextBox = (SfNumericTextBox)FindViewById(Resource.Id.layoutNumeric);

        //setting the properties of NumericTextBox

        sfNuemricTextBox.Value = 3000;
    }

}
}
