| 1 | +# How to hide the line separator in Xamarin.Forms ListView with grouping (SfListView) |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +The Xamarin.Forms [SfListView](https://help.syncfusion.com/xamarin/listview/overview) does not contain line separator by default. You can load the StackLayout with height as 1 to separate the items. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +You can hide the separator for any item in a group by changing the [IsVisible](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/xamarin.forms.visualelement.isvisible) property of the **StackLayout** (Used as a Separator) loaded in the [SfListView.ItemTemplate](https://help.syncfusion.com/cr/cref_files/xamarin/Syncfusion.SfListView.XForms~Syncfusion.ListView.XForms.SfListView~ItemTemplate.html). |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +**XAML** |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Converter bind to **Separator** to hide it based on the requirement. |

| 58 | +In the converter, get the group result value and change the visibility of the element of first item in a group. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +``` c# |

| 67 | + ListView = parameter as SfListView; |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + if (value == null || ListView.DataSource.Groups.Count == 0) |
| 70 | + return false; |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | + var groupresult = GetGroup(value); |
| 73 | + var list = groupresult.Items.ToList<object>().ToList(); |
