One common requirement in charting applications is the ability to customize the appearance of data labels. This sample demonstrates how to add a custom view to the data label of a .NET MAUI Cartesian Chart. The custom view includes a label displaying the value of the data point and an image indicating the trend based on the value.

- Summing up data point values in the label using a converter.

We create a DataTemplate named “dataLabel”, consisting of a StackLayout containing a Label. This label displays the value of the data point and utilizes a converter to dynamically change its color based on the value. And the Image control displays the respective image based on the data point and utilized a convertor to dynamically change its image based on the value.

To run this sample locally, follow these steps:

The **ValueToColorConverter** and **ValueToImageConverter** classes are implemented to handle the logic of changing text color and displaying icons based on the value, respectively. These converters are applied to the TextColor and Source properties within the data label template. The **ValueToSummaryValueConverter** class is used to return the sum of the data point values, with the sum accumulating as each data point passes through this converter.

## Integrating the Custom View with the Chart

Incorporate the custom view into your chart by assigning the LabelTemplate property of the series to the defined DataTemplate. Ensure that the **ShowDataLabels** property is set to **True** to display the data labels.
You can use this sample as a reference to implement custom data label views in your .NET MAUI applications. The provided code snippets demonstrate how to define a custom view in XAML, implement value converters in C#, and integrate the custom view with the Cartesian Chart control.
