v8.0.0: Can Touch This! TouchBehavior is Here!

TouchBehavior is here!

The release a lot of people have been waiting for is here. Version 8.0 of the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit introduces the ever popular TouchBehavior! You might know TouchBehavior as TouchEffect in the Xamarin world, but since Effects no longer exist, it has now been turned into a Behavior.

Due to the amazing work of @Axemasta this functionality is now ported from the Xamarin Community Toolkit to .NET MAUI. Of course, @bijington was on the case with the documentation, so we have that in place for you as well.

Breaking Snackbar on Windows

Otherwise, there is A LOT going on in this release, just look at the list below. There is however one thing we do want to highlight: the breaking changes for Snackbar.

Based on your feedback @VladislavAntonyuk did a complete rewrite of the Snackbar on Windows, ultimately of course to make things better, but it requires some changes on your side if you are working with Snackbar on Windows today. On other platforms it should work unchanged.

Find all the details in our updated documentation for this.

NavigationBar coloring for Android

Another functionality that was ported over from the Xamarin Community Toolkit is the NavigationBar coloring. This is very specific to Android and allows you to change the color of the systems navigation bar (the bottom one with the back button, home button, etc.)

@pictos did a great job on this one figuring out how to fit this into our toolkit 👏

Find all the docs on how to start using it, right here.

Thank you contributors!

Of course we couldn't have done this without our amazing community and team, a major feature like TouchBehavior being implemented by someone from the community is what this project is all about. Truly amazing.

Special shoutout to our first-time contributors: @Marioo1357, @eduardoagr, @StevilKnevil, @Cybrosys, @marco-skizza and @Axemasta but of course a BIG THANK YOU to all of you!

v2.0.1 Windows Maps: bugfix for crash!

This release fixes a crash that was introduced when updating .NET MAUI to version 8.0.10.

As part of this change in .NET MAUI, the initialisation call for the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit Maps would also crash because the Toolkit was call the .NET MAUI UseMauiMaps call as part of the initialisation.

This call was not needed, but until now did not cause any problems. We removed the call and thus fixed the crash.

More information can be found here: dotnet/maui#21360

To correctly initialise the .NET MAUI Maps as well as the Toolkit Maps you MauiProgram should look something like this:

  var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
  builder
	  .UseMauiApp<App>()
	  .ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
	  {
		  fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
		  fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Semibold.ttf", "OpenSansSemibold");
	  });

    #if IOS || ANDROID
    builder.UseMauiMaps();
    #endif
    
    #if WINDOWS
    // Initialize the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit Maps by adding the below line of code
    builder.UseMauiCommunityToolkitMaps("key")
    #endif

   return builder.Build();

v3.1.0 MediaElement: fullscreen support is finally here!

Years in the making but here it is! Fullscreen support for our MediaElement 🤯 A big shoutout to @ne0rrmatrix and @vhugogarcia but also @pictos @bijington and @brminnick for all their work, reviews and probably some blood, sweat, tears, the occasional fights with partners, sacrifices to the binary father and who knows what else.

Also as part of the fullscreen change you should now be able to use MediaElement when using Shell, not using Shell, inside of a CollectionView, etc. Also something many people have been waiting for.

Please note that we did update the MediaElement docs with a note about using fullscreen on Android, so be sure to read that.

Go grab this release and try it out in your apps!

v6.1.0: A New Release Popped Up!

My goodness do we love our community. And in this case especially @cat0363 who goes by the name of Kenji in real-life.

If you look through the release notes below, you'll notice that Kenji has been doing a lot of work for us and all that work went into the Popup. From this place: thank you so much for spending your valuable time on our project and making it better for everyone 🙏

So in this release: a lot of love for the Popup: better sizing, adding the ability to use resources and styles, flow direction is now working... And much more!

PopupService

Still on Popups, we have made it easier for you to work with popups from your view models. In v6.1.0 we have added the PopupService. No weird messaging or dependencies in your code that shouldn't be there, just a clean service that will allow you to show popups respecting MVVM.

All the details can be found in the documentation.

DrawingView

But we didn't stop there! As always @VladislavAntonyuk has been doing wonderful work. With this release we introduce a bunch of Commands that allow you to capture the start, cancel and drawing in progress events in a pure MVVM way.

The documentation for DrawingView has been updated accordingly, so go check it out.

All the details

  • Fix Popup size on Android and iOS by @cat0363 in #1361
  • Add Resources and Style to Popup by @cat0363 in #1351
  • Add forced update of ScrollView on iOS by @cat0363 in #1442
  • Remove restriction for displaying Popup on iOS by @cat0363 in #1369
  • Add consideration of FlowDirection by @cat0363 in #1434
  • Addition of size calculation for Label placed in Popup and correction of size calculation when Popup Size is not specified by @cat0363 in #1456
  • Remove popup corner rounding and shadow on iOS by @cat0363 in #1463
  • Add [GeneratedCode] and [ExcludeFromCodeCoverage] Attributes to SourceGenerators by @brminnick in #1468
  • Fixes Speech recognizer locale was not ignored on Android #1436 by @VladislavAntonyuk in #1481
  • Add drawing started, cancelled, and on-drawing commands by @VladislavAntonyuk in #1440
  • PopupService by @bijington in #1165
  • Add consideration of Loaded event to Popup Show method on Windows by @cat0363 in #1470
  • Change the display method of Popup Overlay on Windows by @cat0363 in #1485

  • Bump Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Polly from 7.0.11 to 7.0.12 in /samples by @dependabot in #1449

v6.0.0: Next Level Speech Recognition & Bugfixes

Watch out! This version contains some breaking changes! That is why we are going from version 5.3.0 to version 6.0.0. They grow up so fast... 🥲 Anyway, no time to be emotional, let's talk about the amazing things in this release.

Speech Recognition

The speech recognition APIs just got better. You can now listen to the user in the background and still process the results asynchronously. This enables so many cool new scenarios in your app, including building your own personal assistant! Connect that with some AI and... 🤯

You can read all about how to use this new functionality in the docs right here.

Bugfixes, bugfixes, bugfixes

Furthermore this release is PACKED with bugfixes. The popups got better, we fixed memory leaks all over and even the snackbar and toast now know how to handle a device that is rotating. Good stuff, check out all the details just below here.
