Customization of Trackball behavior

Hello,

Our app is currently on Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Android and we're migrating it to MAUI. I'm investigating whether switching to the MAUI version of Syncfusion.SfCartesianChart would allow us to keep the feature set we were using on Xamarin. One feature I'm having trouble replicating exactly in MAUI is the trackball behavior, in particular detecting when the trackball info is being displayed and reacting to that event.


On Xamarin.iOS, we have access to the ViewForTrackballLabel override and on Xamarin.Android, we have access to the GetView override. We use these overrides to produce additional customization on the chart, such as displaying the trackball info in the top right of the chart and a legend overlay. In the MAUI version of SfCartesianChart, I haven't found equivalent entry points to obtain the trackball data. Is there a way to do get this entry point?
