Dividers in .NET MAUI Range Slider (SfRangeSlider)

30 Sep 202219 minutes to read

This section explains how to add the dividers in the range slider.

Show dividers

The ShowDividers property is used to render the dividers on the track. The default value of the ShowDividers property is False. It is a shape used to represent the major interval points of the track.

For example, if the Minimum is 0.0, the Maximum is 10.0, and Interval is 2.0, the range slider will render the dividers at 0.0, 2.0, 4.0, and so on.

<sliders:SfRangeSlider RangeStart="0.2"
                       RangeEnd="0.8"
                       Interval="0.2"
                       ShowDividers="True" />
SfRangeSlider rangeSlider = new SfRangeSlider();
rangeSlider.RangeStart = 0.2;
rangeSlider.RangeEnd = 0.8;
rangeSlider.Interval = 0.2;
rangeSlider.ShowDividers = true;

Divider radius

Change the active and inactive divider radius of the range slider using the ActiveRadius and the InactiveRadius properties of the DividerStyle class.

<sliders:SfRangeSlider RangeStart="0.2"
                       RangeEnd="0.8"
                       Interval="0.2"
                       ShowDividers="True">

    <sliders:SfRangeSlider.DividerStyle>
        <sliders:SliderDividerStyle ActiveRadius="3"
                                    InactiveRadius="5" />
    </sliders:SfRangeSlider.DividerStyle>

</sliders:SfRangeSlider>
SfRangeSlider rangeSlider = new SfRangeSlider();
rangeSlider.RangeStart = 0.2;
rangeSlider.RangeEnd = 0.8;
rangeSlider.Interval = 0.2;
rangeSlider.ShowDividers = true;
rangeSlider.DividerStyle.ActiveRadius = 3;
rangeSlider.DividerStyle.InactiveRadius = 5;

Divider color

Change the active and inactive divider color of the range slider using the ActiveFill and InactiveFill properties of the DividerStyle class.

<sliders:SfRangeSlider RangeStart="0.2"
                       RangeEnd="0.8"
                       Interval="0.2"

Divider stroke width and stroke color

Change the active and inactive divider stroke width of the range slider using the ActiveStrokeThickness and the InactiveStrokeThickness properties of the DividerStyle class.

Also, change the active and inactive divider stroke color of the range slider using the ActiveStroke and the InactiveStroke properties of the DividerStyle class.

Disabled divider

Change the state of the range slider to disabled by setting false to the IsEnabled property. Using the Visual State Manager (VSM), customize the range slider divider properties based on the visual states. The applicable visual states are enabled(default) and disabled.
