Hi Deepa,  

  

We have checked with your query for displaying the syncfusion combo box control instead of picker control in SfDataForm. Through registering custom view (SfComboBox) in custom editor your requirement can be achieved in sample level. You can refer our online user guide documentation for creating new custom editor n DataForm.

Code snippet:  

  

dataForm.DataObject = new ContactInfo();
dataForm.RegisterEditor("ComboBox", new ComboBoxEditor(dataForm));
dataForm.RegisterEditor("ResolutionList", "ComboBox"); 

 

public class ContactInfo
{
        public string SampleName
        {
            get;
            set;
        }
        private string resolutionList;
        public string ResolutionList
        {
            get { return resolutionList; }
            set { resolutionList = value; }
        }
} 

 

 

public class ComboBoxEditor : DataFormEditor<SfComboBox>
{
        public ComboBoxEditor(SfDataForm dataForm):base(dataForm)
        {

        }
        protected override SfComboBox OnCreateEditorView()
        {
            return new SfComboBox();
        }
        protected override void OnInitializeView(DataFormItem dataFormItem, SfComboBox view)
        {
            base.OnInitializeView(dataFormItem, view);

            NSMutableArray resolutionList = new NSMutableArray();
            resolutionList.Add((NSString)" 1920 x 1080");
            resolutionList.Add((NSString)" 1680 x 1050");
            resolutionList.Add((NSString)" 1600 x 900");
            resolutionList.Add((NSString)" 1440 x 900");
            view.ComboBoxSource = resolutionList;

        } 

}
