Padding/Margin on Hint

[Abel Aegerter]

Is a way to set some padding or margin to the hint and/or helper text? they get misaligned if use 

InputViewPadding

<sf:SfTextInputLayout ContainerType="Outlined" Hint="Some Hint" InputViewPadding="8" HelperText="Some Helper Text">
    <Entry MinimumHeightRequest="36" />
</sf:SfTextInputLayout>

Hi Abel,

Thank you for reaching out. The InputViewPadding property only adjusts the spacing around the text inside the text input layout and does not affect the position of the hint or helper text.

Could you please share an image or example showing how you would like the hint and helper text to appear, along with more details about your requirement? This will help us review your scenario and provide an appropriate solution.

Hi Abel,

Currently, the MAUI SfTextInputLayout does not have support to add padding to the hint and helper texts. We have logged a feature request for this and plan to implement it in one of our upcoming releases. We will notify you as soon as this feature is available.

You can track the progress using the following feedback link: Padding Support for Hint and Helper Text in .NET MAUI SfTextInputLayout in .NET MAUI | Feedback Portal

In the meantime, please feel free to contact us regarding any other features or issues using our Feature Report page. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
