How do I remove the underline from searchbar in android

Jeff Pfahl 91

I need to remove the underline from the searchbar in android. The following does not work:

   public partial class SearchBarBase : SearchBar  
   {  
       static SearchBarBase()  
       {  
           SearchBarHandler.Mapper.AppendToMapping(  
               "SearchBarBase",  
               (handler, view) =>  
               {  
                   // TODO   
                   handler.PlatformView.Background = null;  
               });  
       }  
   }

Hello,

Please do not set directly, if you want to set SearchBar's background to remove the underline, you need get the nested LinearLayout, then set the background to null for nested LinearLayout

   Microsoft.Maui.Handlers.SearchBarHandler.Mapper.AppendToMapping("MyCustomizationSearchBar", (handler, view) =>  
           {  
   #if ANDROID  
              
               Android.Widget.LinearLayout linearLayout =  handler.PlatformView.GetChildAt(0) as Android.Widget.LinearLayout;  
               linearLayout = linearLayout.GetChildAt(2) as Android.Widget.LinearLayout;  
               linearLayout = linearLayout.GetChildAt(1) as Android.Widget.LinearLayout;  
               linearLayout.Background = null;  
               
   #endif  
           });  
       }
