.NET MAUI Carousel Visual States

Updated on Nov 10, 2026

This article describes the visual states provided by the Carousel control.

You can use these visual states to change the appearance of the item containers (RadCarouselItemView) based on their state—such as when an item is highlighted, hovered, pressed, disabled, and more.

The Carousel provides the following CommonStates visual states:

Visual State	Description
Normal	Applies to items two or more positions from the highlighted item.
MouseOver	Applies when the mouse cursor is hovering over an item two or more positions from the highlighted item.
Pressed	Applies when an item two or more positions from the highlighted item is pressed.
Highlighted	Applies to the highlighted item.
HighlightedMouseOver	Applies when the mouse cursor is hovering over the highlighted item.
HighlightedPressed	Applies when the highlighted item is pressed.
Previous	Applies to the item before the highlighted item.
PreviousMouseOver	Applies when the mouse cursor is hovering over the item before the highlighted item.
PreviousPressed	Applies when the item before the highlighted item is pressed.
Next	Applies to the item after the highlighted item.
NextMouseOver	Applies when the mouse cursor is hovering over the item after the highlighted item.
