Legend in .NET MAUI Maps (SfMaps)
13 Dec 202424 minutes to read
Using a legend, you can provide clear information on the data plotted on the map.
To learn more about the .NET MAUI Maps legend, you can check the following video.
Shape legend
You can show shape legend by setting the Legend property as MapLegend with SourceType as Shape. The legend item’s default text is displayed based on the value of ColorMappings.Text property. The default value of the Legend property is null and hence the legend will not be shown by default.

Appearance customization
Customize the legend items using the following properties.
-
IconType - Used to change the icon shape. The default value of the
IconTypeproperty isShapeType.Rectangle. The possible values areCircle,Rectangle,Triangle, andDiamond. -
IconSize - Used to change the size of the icon. The default value of
IconSizeproperty is Size(12.0, 12.0).
