Shell.SearchHandler Missing SelectedItem Property

Question

The SelecetdItem property is missing in Shell.SearchHandler. When I added it manually,everything works fine except the hot reload. It shows an error that says the property "SelectedItem" does not have an accessible setter. The error code is XHR0013.
I am using .Net 6 and Xamarin.Form version 5.0.0.2401
Below is the code I am using to set the search handler.
<Shell.SearchHandler>
<SearchHandler ShowsResults="True"
Placeholder="Name, UPC"
Query="{Binding SearchQuery}"
ItemsSource="{Binding SearchItemsResult, Mode=TwoWay}"
SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedSearchItem, Mode=TwoWay}" // I added this line manually while the property does not exist within the Shell.SearchHandler properties.
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemsSearchTemplate}">

    </SearchHandler>  
</Shell.SearchHandler>

Hello,

As the tips says, the property "SelectedItem" does not have an accessible setter.

The property SelectedItem is a read only property in SearchHandler, you could refer to SearchHandler.SelectedItem Property to get the details.

That's the reason why the error occurs.
