Cannot hide combo box

Hi,


I was just wondering if we are able to hide sfCombobox's? I am populating a combo box depending on what a user selects from another field. It works fine but what I would like to do is hide it if there are no values? I am setting the IsVisible property to false if there are no values but it does not hide the combo box. I have even tried setting the IsVisible property to false when the page loads but even that does not seem to hide the combo box.


Any help would be greatly appreciated

Since we are unable to reproduce the issue “IsVisible is not working in SfComboBox”, We would like you to check the issue with the attached sample and let us know if it is reproduced. Else, please revert to us by modifying the sample based on your application and provide the replication procedure or the sample.

Thank you very much for the reply. I had indeed set everything up correctly but your example has enabled me to find out what is causing the issue.


I have the combo box wrapped in an input layout on the page which then seems to stop the IsVisible property from working.

<inputLayout:SfTextInputLayout Style="{DynamicResource TextInputLayoutStyle}">

                    <combobox:SfComboBox

                        x:Name="PeriodPicker"

                        DataSource="{Binding Periods, Source={Reference IndicatorPicker}}"

                        IsVisible="{Binding ShowPeriods, Mode=TwoWay}"

                        SelectedItem="{Binding Period, Mode=TwoWay}"

                        Style="{StaticResource TextInputLayoutComboBoxStyle}"

                        VerticalOptions="CenterAndExpand"

                        Watermark="Period" />

                </inputLayout:SfTextInputLayout>


Do you know why this would be the case? If I remove the input layout it
