Implementing Segmented Controls in .NET MAUI

The Syncfusion .NET MAUI Segmented Control (SfSegmentedControl) provides a linear set of segments containing text, icons, or both, allowing users to select from mutually exclusive options. Each segment functions as a discrete button, creating an intuitive way to switch between views, filter content, or select time periods.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Implement view switchers: Toggle between Day/Week/Month/Year views, list/grid layouts, or different data visualizations
• Create filter buttons: Allow users to filter content by category, type, or time period
• Build tab-like navigation: Provide segment-based navigation without traditional tabs
• Design selection interfaces: Enable users to choose from 2-7 mutually exclusive options
• Customize segment appearance: Style borders, backgrounds, colors, corner radius, or selection indicators
• Configure selection behavior: Set up programmatic selection, selection modes, or custom indicators
• Handle segment events: Respond to selection changes or segment taps
• Support RTL layouts: Implement right-to-left language support
