Floating Hint Font Size

[Ben Holtsclaw]

Is it possible to change the font size of the hint label when it is floating?

<inputLayout:SfTextInputLayout Hint="Name"
           ContainerType="Outlined"
           IsHintAlwaysFloated="True">
    <Entry />
    <inputLayout:SfTextInputLayout.HintLabelStyle>
        <inputLayout:LabelStyle TextColor="Green" FontSize="20" />
    </inputLayout:SfTextInputLayout.HintLabelStyle>
</inputLayout:SfTextInputLayout>

FontSize seems to have no effect here.

Hi Ben,

Query: Is it possible to change the font size of the hint label when it is floating?

Currently, we do not have support for changing the font size of the hint label when it is floating. So we have created a new feature request "Provide support for customizing the font size of the floating hint label". Please find the below link for tracking the status of the feature implementation. 

Feedback link: https://www.syncfusion.com/feedback/42398/provide-support-for-customizing-the-font-size-of-the-floating-hint-label

 

We will include this support in the 2023 Volume 1 SP Release tentatively at the end of April/2023. We appreciate your patience until then.
 

If you have any more specifications/suggestions for the feature request, you can add them as a comment in the portal. We will share the release details in the feedback itself.

Regards,

Hi Ben,

 

We would like to inform you that whenever you set the FontSize for the HintLabelStyle, it will apply to both the hint and the floating hint. When the hint floats, its size is reduced by a specific ratio.

 

Currently, we do not have support for independently changing the font size of the floating hint. You can track this feature request through the provided feedback link.

 

As a workaround, you can achieve the desired behavior by setting styles separately for the hint label when it is floating and when it is not. This can be done using a behavior class. We have attached a sample project that demonstrates this workaround. Please refer to it for further details.

 

Let us know if the suggested workaround resolves your query. Feel free to contact us if you have any additional concerns or questions.

 

Best regards,

Hariharan
