.Net Maui Navigation Page

Question

Hi Friends,

I was wondering how do I create a Modal NavigationPage in my shell application. I am going to try to use a Modal NavigationPage in lieu of a Popup page because I was unable to update my listview using the MVVM community toolkit using a popup page. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

You can use Shell Navigation to do it.

For example, if you want to navigate to the NewPage1, you should register this NewPage1 in the AppShell background code.

 public AppShell()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
       Routing.RegisterRoute("NewPage1", typeof(NewPage1));
    }

Then you can navigate it by await Shell.Current.GoToAsync("NewPage1");

If you want to pass data in navigation, you can refer this document:pass data in shell navigation

As you said, you want to do Modal NavigationPage, if you want to hide the shell navigation bar, you can add Shell.NavBarIsVisible="False" in navigated page.

<ContentPage xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             x:Class="MauiApp1.NewPage1"
             Shell.NavBarIsVisible="False"
             Title="NewPage1">

If you have issue about ListView cannot update, please open a new thread and post related code that could reproduce this issue.

Best Regards,
