Enhancement Request: Customizable AimMode Overlay for Scanner #52

Closed DerErbil closed 5 months ago

DerErbil commented 5 months ago

Hello,

I recently came across your project while transitioning to MAUI from Xamarin.Forms and found the scanner component quite promising. I particularly appreciate the AimMode feature, as it adds significant value to my applications.

However, as I delve deeper into integrating it into my projects, I've found a minor but impactful issue. While the automatic inclusion of the red dot in AimMode is a neat touch, it doesn't quite align with the design preferences I have for my scanner implementation.

I believe introducing a customization option for the AimMode overlay would greatly enhance the flexibility of your scanner component. Specifically, by providing a property such as AimModeOverlay, developers like myself would have the freedom to tailor the scanner's appearance to better fit our application's design language.

I understand that implementing this feature may require some development effort, but I believe it's a relatively straightforward addition that would greatly benefit your user base. Simply allowing developers to display a customizable overlay, such as a red circle in the center of the screen, outside of the scanner itself, would address this concern without complicating the existing functionality.

Thank you for considering this enhancement request. I'm eager to see how your project evolves and am confident that this addition would be well-received by the community.

Best regards, Erbil
