Turn off Vertical Gesture handling on SfCalendar

We have a page with two SfCalendars when one or both are on screen it is very hard to vertically scroll the UI as the calendars are swallowing any vertical gestures that the user may make in an attempt to screoll the page up and down.

I realise it needs to action left to right scroll for date navigation but can it be made to ignore up and down gestures so they can be handled by the outer scrollview? We are setting NavigationMode to Horizontal.

I appreciate this may not be possible out of the box so any pointers on how I might stgart coding this myself would be great

Thanks

Hi Pat,

Thank you for reaching out.

 

We understand the issue you're experiencing with the SfCalendar control inside a ScrollView in .NET MAUI, where vertical drags over the calendar do not scroll the page as expected. This behavior occurs because the calendar currently consumes pan gestures even when NavigationDirection="Horizontal" is set preventing the parent ScrollView from receiving them.

 

We’d like to inform you that this is a known framework-level issue in .NET MAUI. Our team has already logged a report regarding this behavior on the framework side.

You can track the progress and updates on this issue via the following GitHub link:

We are actively monitoring the status of this issue and will notify you once a resolution is available. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience and understanding.

 

Please let us know if you need any further assistance or have additional questions. We're here to help!

Regards,
Vallarasu R.
