Answer 1

Hello,

The official recommended for filling Maui application controls is through Grid and using HorizontalOptions=“Fill”.

Please refer to the following thread and sample code:

• [Proposal] Obsolete AndExpand #3362

<Grid Padding="8">
	<Border Stroke="Black" HorizontalOptions="Fill">
		<Grid ColumnDefinitions="30,*" Padding="8">
			<Image Grid.Column="0" Source="dotnet_bot.png"/>
			<Entry Grid.Column="1" Placeholder="test" HorizontalOptions="Fill"/>
		</Grid>
	</Border>
</Grid>

Best Regards,

Alec Liu.
