It caused by the TableView . You could use Grid as the root layout directly .
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Entry Keyboard="Numeric" Focused="entry1_Focused" Unfocused="entry1_Unfocused"
x:Name="entry1" Grid.Column="1" WidthRequest="100" />
<Entry Keyboard="Numeric" Focused="entry1_Focused" Unfocused="entry1_Unfocused"
Grid.Column="2" x:Name="entry2" WidthRequest="100"/>
</Grid>
If you want to display a collection , you could use ListView .
