[Enhancement] SeparatorColor for BindableLayout

[RedasP]

Summary

Could you introduce separator color feature for BindableLayout?

API Changes

I would expect this feature to have the same API as ListView.SeparatorColor

Intended Use Case

A separator would help making BindableLayout rows look more isolated

[iCodeSometime]

I'd like to point out that BindableLayout does have advantages over ListView/CollectionView in some situations - mainly it only takes up the amount of space it needs to, without any extra work. I think adding separators can only make it more useful.. I don't see any disadvantages to supporting this.

This should be a pretty simple change, is there still interest in a contribution for this?

Or， anyone can give a short example on how to define the separator in itemtemplate ?

@masterchen you can do a BoxView with Height = 1.

@masterchen you can do a BoxView with Height = 1.

But how do you ignore the last Boxview item to be ignored?

Thanks for this suggestion! As Xamarin.Forms is now in maintenance mode, this will not happen anymore for Xamarin.Forms. We're only adding bugfixes and stability fixes.

If this is still important to you, make sure to check the .NET MAUI repo and see if it's already on the roadmap. If not, feel free to open a discussion to discuss a change first or open an issue with a detailed feature request. Thanks!

Without code behind, it's impossible.
