This section explains the steps required to add the DateTime Range Slider control and its elements track, ticks, labels, and tooltip. This section covers only the basic features needed to know to get started with Syncfusion® DateTime Range Slider.

To quickly get started with the .NET MAUI DateTime Range Slider, watch this video.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding, ensure the following are set up:

  1. Install .NET 9 SDK or later.
  2. Set up a .NET MAUI environment with Visual Studio 2022 v17.12 or later.

Step 1: Create a New .NET MAUI Project

  1. Go to File > New > Project and choose the .NET MAUI App template.
  2. Name the project and choose a location. Then, click Next.
  3. Select the .NET framework version and click Create.

Step 2: Install the Syncfusion® MAUI Sliders NuGet Package

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the project and choose Manage NuGet Packages.
  2. Search for Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders and install the latest version.
  3. Ensure the necessary dependencies are installed correctly, and the project is restored.

Step 3: Register the Handler

Syncfusion.Maui.Core nuget is a dependent package for all Syncfusion® controls of .NET MAUI. In the MauiProgram.cs file, register the handler for Syncfusion® core.

using Microsoft.Maui;
using Microsoft.Maui.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Compatibility;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Xaml;
using Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Hosting;

namespace Slider
{
 public static class MauiProgram
 {
 public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
 {
 var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
 builder
 .UseMauiApp<App>()
 .ConfigureSyncfusionCore()
 .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
 {
 fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
 });

 return builder.Build();
 }
 }
}

Step 4: Add a Basic DateTime Range Slider

Step 1: Add the namespace, as shown in the following code sample:

<xmlns:rating="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders"/>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;

Step 2: Add the SfDateTimeRangeSlider control with a required optimal name using the included namespace.

<ContentPage
 . . .
 xmlns:sliders="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders">
 <sliders:SfDateTimeRangeSlider Minimum="2010-01-01" 
 Maximum="2018-01-01" 
 RangeStart="2012-01-01" 
 RangeEnd="2016-01-01" />
</ContentPage>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;

namespace RangeSlider
{
 public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
 {
 public MainPage()
 {
 InitializeComponent();
 SfDateTimeRangeSlider rangeSlider = new SfDateTimeRangeSlider();
 rangeSlider.Minimum = new DateTime(2010, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.Maximum = new DateTime(2018, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.RangeStart = new DateTime(2012, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.RangeEnd = new DateTime(2016, 01, 01);
 this.content = rangeSlider;
 }
 }
}

Prerequisites

Before proceeding, ensure the following are set up:

  1. Install .NET 9 SDK or later.
  2. Set up a .NET MAUI environment with Visual Studio Code.
  3. Ensure that the .NET MAUI workloads are installed and configured as described here.

Step 1: Create a New .NET MAUI Project

  1. Open the Command Palette by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P and type .NET:New Project and press Enter.
  2. Choose the .NET MAUI App template.
  3. Select the project location, type the project name and press Enter.
  4. Then choose Create project

Step 2: Install the Syncfusion® MAUI Sliders NuGet Package

  1. Press + (backtick) to open the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code.
  2. Ensure you’re in the project root directory where your .csproj file is located.
  3. Run the command dotnet add package Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders to install the Syncfusion® .NET MAUI Sliders package.
  4. To ensure all dependencies are installed, run dotnet restore.

Step 3: Register the Handler

Syncfusion.Maui.Core nuget is a dependent package for all Syncfusion® controls of .NET MAUI. In the MauiProgram.cs file, register the handler for Syncfusion® core.

using Microsoft.Maui;
using Microsoft.Maui.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Compatibility;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Xaml;
using Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Hosting;

namespace Slider
{
 public static class MauiProgram
 {
 public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
 {
 var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
 builder
 .UseMauiApp<App>()
 .ConfigureSyncfusionCore()
 .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
 {
 fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
 });

 return builder.Build();
 }
 }
}

Step 4: Add a Basic DateTime Range Slider

Step 1: Add the NuGet to the project as discussed in the above reference section.

Step 2: Add the namespace, as shown in the following code sample:

<xmlns:sliders="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders"/>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;

Step 3: Add the SfDateTimeRangeSlider control with a required optimal name using the included namespace.

<ContentPage
 . . .
 xmlns:sliders="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders">
 <sliders:SfDateTimeRangeSlider Minimum="2010-01-01" 
 Maximum="2018-01-01" 
 RangeStart="2012-01-01" 
 RangeEnd="2016-01-01" />
</ContentPage>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;

namespace RangeSlider
{
 public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
 {
 public MainPage()
 {
 InitializeComponent();
 SfDateTimeRangeSlider rangeSlider = new SfDateTimeRangeSlider();
 rangeSlider.Minimum = new DateTime(2010, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.Maximum = new DateTime(2018, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.RangeStart = new DateTime(2012, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.RangeEnd = new DateTime(2016, 01, 01);
 this.content = rangeSlider;
 }
 }
}

Prerequisites

Before proceeding, ensure the following are set up:

  1. Install .NET 9 SDK or later.
  2. Set up a .NET MAUI environment with JetBrains Rider 2024.3 or later.
  3. Make sure the MAUI workloads are installed and configured as described here.

Step 1: Create a new .NET MAUI project

  2. Search for Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders and install the latest version.
  3. Ensure the necessary dependencies are installed correctly, and the project is restored.

Step 3: Register the Handler

Syncfusion.Maui.Core nuget is a dependent package for all Syncfusion® controls of .NET MAUI. In the MauiProgram.cs file, register the handler for Syncfusion® core.

using Microsoft.Maui;
using Microsoft.Maui.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Compatibility;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Xaml;
using Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Hosting;

namespace Slider
{
 public static class MauiProgram
 {
 public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
 {
 var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
 builder
 .UseMauiApp<App>()
 .ConfigureSyncfusionCore()
 .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
 {
 fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
 });

 return builder.Build();
 }
 }
}

Step 4: Add a Basic DateTime Range Slider

Step 1: Add the NuGet to the project as discussed in the above reference section.

Step 2: Add the namespace, as shown in the following code sample:

<xmlns:sliders="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders"/>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;

Step 3: Add the SfDateTimeRangeSlider control with a required optimal name using the included namespace.

<ContentPage
 . . .
 xmlns:sliders="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders">
 <sliders:SfDateTimeRangeSlider Minimum="2010-01-01" 
 Maximum="2018-01-01" 
 RangeStart="2012-01-01" 
 RangeEnd="2016-01-01" />
</ContentPage>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Sliders;

namespace RangeSlider
{
 public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
 {
 public MainPage()
 {
 InitializeComponent();
 SfDateTimeRangeSlider rangeSlider = new SfDateTimeRangeSlider();
 rangeSlider.Minimum = new DateTime(2010, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.Maximum = new DateTime(2018, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.RangeStart = new DateTime(2012, 01, 01);
 rangeSlider.RangeEnd = new DateTime(2016, 01, 01);
 this.content = rangeSlider;
 }
 }
}

Step 5: Add Labels and Ticks

The ShowLabels property enables the labels which render at given intervals. The ShowTicks property enables the ticks, while the MinorTicksPerInterval property enables the minor ticks between the major ticks.

<sliders:SfDateTimeRangeSlider Minimum="2010-01-01" 
 Maximum="2018-01-01" 
 RangeStart="2012-01-01" 
 RangeEnd="2016-01-01" 
 Interval="2" 
 ShowLabels="True"
 ShowTicks="True"
 MinorTicksPerInterval="1">
</sliders:SfDateTimeRangeSlider>
SfDateTimeRangeSlider rangeSlider = new SfDateTimeRangeSlider();
rangeSlider.Minimum = new DateTime(2010, 01, 01);
rangeSlider.Maximum = new DateTime(2018, 01, 01);
rangeSlider.RangeStart = new DateTime(2012, 01, 01);
rangeSlider.RangeEnd = new DateTime(2016, 01, 01);
rangeSlider.ShowLabels = true;
rangeSlider.ShowTicks = true;
rangeSlider.Interval = 2;
rangeSlider.MinorTicksPerInterval = 1;
