Overview
The Xamarin Popup layout control, also known as the Xamarin.Forms Modal Dialog control, is an alert dialog or popup that can be displayed in the desired position. It also provides options to customize and load any desired view in the control. The Xamarin.Forms popup has built-in layouts to display alert or popup for conventional needs. Furthermore, it provides options to customize the popup position with various animation modes and much more.
Built-in Xamarin Dialogs
Built-in Xamarin Dialogs allow you to show a popup with accept and decline functionalities for all basic scenarios. The built-in layouts of the popup comprise three regions, the header, body, and footer. Each region is fully customizable using a template to display the required information and notification.
In addition, you can decide to show or hide the headers and footers in a popup. Most importantly, you can use the Xamarin.Forms popup and its layout completely using the MVVM approach.
Modal window representation
Above all, you can use the Xamarin.Forms popup layout as a modal window. It prevents interaction with the application until the window is closed using the built-in close icon.

Animations
The Xamarin.Forms popup control provides various built-in animations when displaying and dismissing the popup for a better user experience. The built-in animations available are:
- Zoom
- Fade
- Slide on left
- Slide on right
- Slide on top
- Slide on bottom
- None

Position customizations
Use built-in position customization options to display the popup in different ways based on application needs. You can display the popup in the below positions:
- At the center of the screen
- Relative to another view
- At touch point
- At an absolute position
- In full screen
Popup style
- Style every view in the popup for a visually appealing look and feel.
- Customize border color, border thickness, close icon, and corner radius for a native-like experience.
- Further, you can customize the background color, text color, text alignment, font, and much more for the header and footer in a popup.
