Mouse Over Color Update UWP

Is there a mouse over color I can set for SfListView items? My client feels the list does not indicate he can select any of the items because nothing is reacting to the mouse over. I sort of understand his point of view, I was able to simulate it by putting buttons in place but it's a really round about way to get the mouse over behavior that he's wanting. I thought FocusBorderolor and FocusBorderThickness might achieve this but it seems like maybe that's only for keyboard navigation. Is there any trick for doing a mouse enter/ mouse exit color update for my listview items?

Thanks

Hi Mark,  

Thanks for your patience. 
  
Currently, we don’t have direct property to set mouse hover color for SfListView items in Xamarin Forms. However, your requirement can be achieved in sample level by using custom renderer (using Grid in the custom renderer) to update while mouse enter and mouse exit color for the listview items in Xamarin Forms UWP. We have created sample for the same. Kindly find the sample below.  
 Sample: ListViewsample
  
Please let us know whether the provided solution satisfies your requirement. If not, kindly revert us with more details related to your requirement by modifying the provided sample with screenshots if possible. It will be helpful for us to provide you a solution.

Hi,

I understand that sflistview is customlayout not inheriting xamarin.forms listview thats why this highlighting isnt working. it should be extended on uwp using 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/design/style/reveal#enabling-reveal-on-custom-controls

beside that it should also include 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/design/input/gamepad-and-remote-interactions#xy-focus-navigation-and-interaction

Because uwp is not only for desktop or mobile but also Xbox. when I implement XF listview gamepad is working on xbox but Sflistview doesnt include xy focus. therefore it doesnt work.

it is nice to include those features. maybe we should register into feature requests.

Thanks,

Emil

Hi Emil,  
   
We have validated the reported query from our side. As per the implementation, you can access the position from event itself in the sample like below. If you need to pass x and y position, you can get from native event like PointerEntered argument. Therefore, we deeply appreciate the time you took to suggest this requirement, but we regretfully have to deny this request. While we understand how this requirement could be of value, due to above mentioned behavior, we are unable to consider this request at this time. Thank you for your interest in our product and your efforts to improve it. We hope our products continue to provide value to your business requirements.  
   
public class ListViewItemRendererExt : ListViewItemRenderer  
{  
        public ListViewItemRendererExt()  
        {  
            this.PointerEntered += ListViewItemRendererExt_PointerEntered;  
        }  
   
        private void ListViewItemRendererExt_PointerEntered(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.PointerRoutedEventArgs e)  
        {  
            this.Element.BackgroundColor = Xamarin.Forms.Color.Red;  
            var location = e.GetCurrentPoint(this);  
            Point position = location.Position;  
        }  
}  
 
If you have any further questions on this, please do not hesitate to contact us, and we will be happy to provide further clarifications.

Hi,

thank you for reply. it looks good to me. Do you know if it is possible to add reveal on SfListView instead of overriding backgroundcolor like in your sample. Although your sample works fine for me. i would like to add more like "reveal" as in my link above.

Thanks,

Emil
