4.2.0 - XCalendar.Maui Out of Pre-Release

There is a large performance issue on XCalendar.Maui compared to XCalendar.Forms despite largely sharing the same XAML and code-behind for controls, with both sharing the same logic residing in XCalendar.Core. Because of this I assume this is an issue with .NET MAUI's CollectionView but will continue to look for optimisations.

General

• Bumped nuget packages
• Fixed Multiple layout issues in the Maui sample app

Forms & MAUI

• Removed property 'NavigatedDate' from DaysView. #69
• Renamed CalendarView property 'NavigationTemplate' to 'NavigationViewTemplate'

Forms

• Replaced StackLayouts containing few children with Grids.

MAUI

• Bumped nuget package 'CommunityToolkit.Maui' to 1.3.0
• Removed redundant ContentView in 'DaysView' implementation. This should improve performace.
• Fixed NavigationView layout being left-aligned

4.1.0 - More Calendar Components

You can now create your own CalendarView by using the new controls 'NavgationView' and 'DaysView'.

General

• Added more properties (Mainly colours) to property panel in sample app

• Added 'Customising A Day' example to sample app
• Removed custom implementation switch in sample app playground page
• Fixed not being able to scroll through property panel in MAUI sample app playground page
• Fixed issues with dialogs in sample app

Core

• Changed the Calendar to not change the Days property internally. This was causing unexpected behaviour with bindings.
• Fixed default value of BackwardsNavigationAmount being 1 instead of -1 in Calendar

Forms & MAUI

• Added 'DaysView' control
• Added 'NavigationView' control
• Removed property DayNameTextColor from CalendarView
• Removed border properties from 'DayView'. CalendarView's DayTemplate can be used to add a border instead. This should improve performance in cases where border properties were not being used.
• Renamed 'CalendarDayView' to 'DayView'
• Replaced all occurrences of 'MonthView' with 'DaysView'
• Fixed custom controls' x:Name property not being unique (enough). This would sometimes cause incorrect references when using {x:Reference}.
