+
+## Description
+
+I want the `ManualLoadOnDemandTemplate` of the [CollectionView]({%slug collectionview-overview%}) for .NET MAUI to disappear when there are no more items to load. The template currently remains visible even after all data has been loaded.
+
+This knowledge base article also answers the following questions:
+- How can I disable the `ManualLoadOnDemandTemplate` in CollectionView for .NET MAUI?
+- What property controls the visibility of the `ManualLoadOnDemandTemplate` in CollectionView?
+- How do I stop the load-on-demand feature in CollectionView for .NET MAUI?
+
+## Solution
+
+To remove or hide the `ManualLoadOnDemandTemplate` when no more items need to be loaded, set the `IsLoadOnDemandEnabled` property of the CollectionView to `false`. This property controls whether the load-on-demand functionality is active. Disabling it hides the `ManualLoadOnDemandTemplate`.
+
+Here is an example:
+
+**1.** Define the `ViewModel`
+
+```csharp
+public partial class LoadOnDemandCollectionViewModel : NotifyPropertyChangedBase
+{
+    private bool isEnabled = true;
+
+    public LoadOnDemandCollectionViewModel()
+    {
+        this.Items = new LoadOnDemandCollection<Person>(this.LoadMoreItems);
+
+        for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
+        {
+            this.Items.Add(new Person { Name = "Person " + i, Age = i + 10 });
+        }
+    }
+
+    public LoadOnDemandCollection<Person> Items { get; set; }
+
+    public bool IsEnabled
+    {
+        get => this.isEnabled;
+        set => this.UpdateValue(ref this.isEnabled, value);
+    }
+
+    private IEnumerable LoadMoreItems(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
+    {
+        List<Person> newItems = new List<Person>();
+        int count = this.Items.Count;
+
+        // Simulate a limit for loading more items
+        if (count >= 30)
+        {
+            this.IsEnabled = false; // Disable load-on-demand
+            return null; // No more items to load
+        }
+
+        for (int i = count; i < count + 10; i++)
+        {
+            newItems.Add(new Person { Name = "Person " + i, Age = i + 10 });
+        }
+
+        return newItems;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+**2.** Bind the `IsLoadOnDemandEnabled` property of the `RadCollectionView` to a property in your ViewModel, such as `IsEnabled`:
+
+```xml
+<telerik:RadCollectionView x:Name="listView"
+                           ItemsSource="{Binding Items}"
+                           DisplayMemberPath="Name"
+                           LoadOnDemandMode="Manual"
+                           IsLoadOnDemandEnabled="{Binding IsEnabled, Mode=TwoWay}" />
+```
