Outlined Textbox in Xamarin.Forms

I want to implement material outlined textbox in Xamarin.Forms. I had created custom renderers but not able to apply style to it. I want text box like this image https://i.sstatic.net/7pWPr.png

By creating custom renderer and inheriting from TextInputLayout displays default material textbox. https://i.sstatic.net/Ek9Vb.jpg

You can use Custom Renderer to custom a View which contained a material designed Entry .

Create a EntryView in Forms:

public class EntryView : ContentView
{
    public static readonly BindableProperty TextProperty =
      BindableProperty.Create("Text", typeof(string), typeof(EntryView), null);
    public string Text
    {
        get { return (string)GetValue(TextProperty); }
        set { SetValue(TextProperty, value); }
    }
}

Second , you need to create the EntryViewRenderer in Android :

public class EntryViewRenderer : ViewRenderer
{
    global::Android.Views.View view;
    global::Android.Widget.EditText editText;
    EntryView entryView;
    Activity activity;

    protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Xamarin.Forms.View> e)
    {
        base.OnElementChanged(e);
        if(e.NewElement != null)
        {
            entryView= e.NewElement as EntryView;
        }

        if (e.OldElement != null || Element == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        try
        {
            SetupUserInterface();
            SetupEventHandlers();
            AddView(view);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(@"           ERROR: ", ex.Message);
        }
    }

    private void SetupEventHandlers()
    {
        editText.TextChanged += EditText_TextChanged;
    }

    private void EditText_TextChanged(object sender, Android.Text.TextChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        entryView.Text = editText.Text; 
        Console.WriteLine("chanegd +" + entryView.Text);
    }

    void SetupUserInterface()
    {
        activity = this.Context as Activity;
        view = activity.LayoutInflater.Inflate(Resource.Layout.EntryLayout, this, false);

        editText = view.FindViewById<EditText>(Resource.Id.editText1);
    }

    protected override void OnLayout(bool changed, int l, int t, int r, int b)
    {
        base.OnLayout(changed, l, t, r, b);

        var msw = MeasureSpec.MakeMeasureSpec(r - l, MeasureSpecMode.Exactly);
        var msh = MeasureSpec.MakeMeasureSpec(b - t, MeasureSpecMode.Exactly);

        view.Measure(msw, msh);
        view.Layout(0, 0, r - l, b - t);
    }
}

In addition , you need to add EntryLayout for this View :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        style="@style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox">
        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/editText1"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:hint="Label"
            android:outlineSpotShadowColor="@color/cardview_shadow_start_color"/>
    </android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

</LinearLayout>

Now , you can use it in Xaml of Xamarin Forms :

xmlns:app18="clr-namespace:App18"

<app18:EntryView Text="abc"/>

The effect :

If need to modify color of outline , just add style in Resources/values/styles.xml .

  <style name="LoginTextInputLayoutStyle" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox.Dense">
    <item name="boxStrokeColor">#570dff</item>
    <item name="boxStrokeWidth">2dp</item>
    <item name="android:textColorHint">#570dff</item>
  </style>

In Resources/values/colors.xml add follow code :

<color name="mtrl_textinput_default_box_stroke_color">#570dff</color>

Finally used in EntryLayout.xml :

<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    style="@style/LoginTextInputLayoutStyle">
    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/editText1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:hint="Label"/>
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

The efect:
