.NET MAUI CollectionView Group Styling
To style the group header set the following properties:
-
GroupViewStyle(Stylewith target typeRadCollectionViewGroupItem)—Specifies the style applied to the group header when grouping is applied.
The GroupViewStyle has a ExpandCollapseIndicatorStyle property that allows you to style the expand indicator. The ExpandCollapseIndicatorStyle (Style with target type Label).
The following example shows how to use the GroupViewStyle:
1. Define the following business object:
public class DataModel : NotifyPropertyChangedBase
{
private string continent;
private string country;
private string city;
private int id;
public string Continent
{
get => this.continent;
set => this.UpdateValue(ref this.continent, value);
}
public string Country
{
get => this.country;
set => this.UpdateValue(ref this.country, value);
}
public string City
{
get => this.city;
set => this.UpdateValue(ref this.city, value);
}
public int Id
{
get => this.id;
set => this.UpdateValue(ref this.id, value);
}
}
2. Create a ViewModel class as shown below:
public class ViewModel : NotifyPropertyChangedBase
{
public ViewModel()
{
this.Locations = new ObservableCollection<DataModel>
{
new DataModel { Continent = "Europe", Country = "Austria", City = "Graz", Id = 1 },

new DataModel { Continent = "North America", Country = "United States", City = "San Francisco", Id = 32 },
new DataModel { Continent = "North America", Country = "Canada", City = "Toronto", Id = 33 },
new DataModel { Continent = "North America", Country = "Canada", City = "Vancouver", Id = 34 },

new DataModel { Continent = "Oceania", Country = "New Zealand", City = "Auckland", Id = 64 },
new DataModel { Continent = "Oceania", Country = "New Zealand", City = "Wellington", Id = 65 },
};
}
public ObservableCollection<DataModel> Locations { get; set; }
}
3. Add the RadCollectionView definition with the GroupViewStyle set:
<telerik:RadCollectionView ItemsSource="{Binding Locations}"
GroupViewStyle="{StaticResource GroupHeaderStyle}"
DisplayMemberPath="City">
<telerik:RadCollectionView.BindingContext>
<local:ViewModel />
</telerik:RadCollectionView.BindingContext>
<telerik:RadCollectionView.GroupDescriptors>
<telerik:PropertyGroupDescriptor PropertyName="Country" />
</telerik:RadCollectionView.GroupDescriptors>
</telerik:RadCollectionView>
4. Include the telerik namespace:
xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2022/xaml/maui"
5. Add the following style for the GroupViewStyle to the page's resource:
<Style x:Key="GroupHeaderStyle" TargetType="telerik:RadCollectionViewGroupView">
<Setter Property="ExpandCollapseIndicatorStyle" Value="{StaticResource ExpandCollapseIndicatorStyle}" />
<Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="#C4E6E3" />
<Setter Property="BorderColor" Value="#80CBC4" />
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />
<Setter Property="VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups">
<VisualStateGroupList>
<VisualStateGroup Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState Name="Normal" />
<VisualState Name="PointerOver">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Property="BackgroundColor" Value="#D6EEEC" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateGroupList>
</Setter>
</Style>
6. Add the following style for the ExpandCollapseIndicatorStyle to the page's resource:
<Style x:Key="ExpandCollapseIndicatorStyle" TargetType="Label">
<Setter Property="TextColor" Value="Black" />
</Style>
This is the result on WinUI:
