Instead of MAUI list view, can we customize and use native android list view layout in MAUI like in xamarin forms custom renderers

Satya 165

In one of my projects i am using native android layout for customized list view. Is it possible to convert that part in MAUI?

When i am including those files in project, i am getting resource file duplicate error

I know that custom renderers are now handlers in MAUI, but I didn't find any documentation related to android native layouts usage in MAUI handlers like xamarin forms renderers

Please share if you have any sample or have found any documentation related to it for reference

Thanks in advance

Please use only relevant tags for your question. I trimmed out the tags for unrelated technologies.

Please include the text of the error message you are running into rather than an image. Images of text, including error messages and code, are inaccessible and difficult to read and work with.

There is a sample demonstrating migrating a custom renderer from Xamarin and using it in Maui at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/samples/dotnet/maui-samples/custom-renderers/

Hi @Rob Caplan

Thanks for the reply.

I have gone through the documentation, but there is no implementation related to android native layouts usage in handlers.

I am using android native list view for Sticky group header functionality instead of xamarin forms listview which doesn't support it currently.

Can you please share any samples/documentation to me on how to use native android layouts in MAUI?

Thanks in advance
