App crashes when I set CultureInfo property in GridColumn tag using XAML

[Joao Paulo Lima Braga]

Hello there,

I´m using Syncfusion´s SfDataGrid control in a small Xamarin Forms app. I need to display currency data in the 3rd column and I would like to display it with my local currency symbol: Brazilian Real (R$). Here is the XAML for the datagrid:

<syncfusion:SfDataGrid
                x:Name="gridSF"
                ColumnSizer="Star"
                AutoGenerateColumns="False"
                AllowSorting="True"
                VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"
                BackgroundColor="MistyRose"
                >
               
                <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns x:TypeArguments="syncfusion:Columns">
                    <syncfusion:GridTextColumn
                        HeaderText="Description"
                        TextAlignment="Start" 
                        CellTextSize="32"
                        HeaderCellTextSize="32"
                        MappingName="Nome" />

                    <syncfusion:GridTextColumn
                        HeaderText="Professional"
                        MappingName="Professional"
                        TextAlignment="Center"
                        CellTextSize="32"
                        HeaderCellTextSize="32" />

                    <syncfusion:GridTextColumn
                        HeaderText="Price"
                        MappingName="Price"
                        TextAlignment="End"
                        CellTextSize="32"
                        HeaderCellTextSize="32"
                        Format="C"
                        CultureInfo="pt-BR"
                        />
                   
                </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
            </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>

When I add the CultureInfo="pt-BR" my app is not compiled and Visual Studio displays an uncaught exception message. Could anyone help me to solve this? Thanks in advance.
