Description

I want to maintain the indicator font size in RadExpander for .NET MAUI. However, I don't see a way to set FontAutoScalingEnabled="False" for the indicator. Is it possible to achieve this?

Solution

To maintain the indicator font size in RadExpander for .NET MAUI, you can use an implicit style and set the FontAutoScalingEnabled property.

1. Add the necessary namespaces to your XAML file:

xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2022/xaml/maui"
xmlns:expander="clr-namespace:Telerik.Maui.Controls.Expander;assembly=Telerik.Maui.Controls"

2. Define an implicit style for the ExpandCollapseIndicator control:

<ContentPage.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <Style TargetType="expander:ExpandCollapseIndicator">
            <Setter Property="FontAutoScalingEnabled" Value="False"/>
        </Style>
    </ResourceDictionary>
</ContentPage.Resources>

3. Use the RadExpander control with the desired indicator font settings:

<telerik:RadExpander x:Name="expander"
                     BorderColor="LightBlue"
                     BorderThickness="2">
    <telerik:RadExpander.Header>
        <telerik:ExpanderHeader IndicatorText="&#x203A;"
                                IndicatorColor="Blue"
                                IndicatorFontFamily="Arial"
                                IndicatorFontSize="16"
                                IndicatorLocation="End"
                                IndicatorAnimationDuration="1000"
                                BorderColor="LightBlue"
                                BorderThickness="2">
            <Label Text="More Options"
                   VerticalOptions="Center"
                   Margin="10" />
        </telerik:ExpanderHeader>
    </telerik:RadExpander.Header>
    <telerik:RadExpander.Content>
        <VerticalStackLayout Margin="10, 20, 10, 20">
            <Label Text="RadExpander for .NET MAUI is a flexible content control that helps you save screen space." HeightRequest="50" />
        </VerticalStackLayout>
    </telerik:RadExpander.Content>
</telerik:RadExpander>
