如何在Silverlight / C＃中访问ListBox控件的ScrollViewer元素？

Question

I wish to dynamically change the scroll position of a Silverlight ListBox from C#, and I need to know how to access the ScrollViewer element of a ListBox control from C#?

Thanks guys, Jeff

Answer 1

From within a class that inherits from the ListBox class, you can use the Protected GetTemplateChild():

var myScrollviewer = myListBox.GetTemplateChild("ScrollViewer") as ScrollViewer;

If you want to access this from outside the ListBox, then exposing the ScrollViewer via a Property should work, again through inheritance.

CAVEAT: If you have set your own custom template, then this Scrollviewer may not exist. You can use the templates Scrollviewer name instead of the "ScrollViewer" in the method above.

Good question. I didn't find a way to do it directly, but came fairly close by looking at the Silverlight Controls project (they use the scrollviewer on the items control in some of the classes). Here is how you can get it, but it requires a custom listbox:

public class TestBox : ListBox
{
    private ScrollViewer _scrollHost;

    protected override void PrepareContainerForItemOverride(DependencyObject element, object item)
    {
        var itemsHost = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(element) as Panel;

        for (DependencyObject obj = itemsHost; obj != item && obj != null; obj = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(obj))
        {
            ScrollViewer viewer = obj as ScrollViewer;
            if (viewer != null)
            {
                _scrollHost = viewer;
                break;
            }
         }

        base.PrepareContainerForItemOverride(element, item);
    }
}

There might be another way to hook into that event (or another way to get that panel), If you look at the template for the ListBox you will see the scroll viewer is actually named "ScrollViewer", however the GetTemplateChild method is protected so you would still need to create a custom class.

Let's make it easy... In your Listbox template, you might find the ScrollViewer Control. Add a Loaded Method for it, and you will get itself frome the sender arg.

private void ScrollViewer_Loaded(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        myScrollViewer = (sender as ScrollViewer);
    }

this works for me

You can call :

myListBox.ApplyTemplate();

to force the ListBox visual tree to be created, otherwise GetTemplateChild() will return Null if you attempt to access it immediatly.

This works well combined with " Erno de Weerd " explanation : inherit ListBox to be able to call GetTemplateChild() method.

I also tried :

• to use ListBox extension method "GetScrollHost()" but it never worked for me (even after full page initialisations).
• "FindName()", but it didn't work, even when i specified the ScrollViewer name into the ListBox Template.

Answer 5

ScrollViewer scrollViewer = yourListBox.getScrollHost();

如果没有数据集设置到列表框，则为null，在我的情况下，只有在执行下面的代码后才能正确返回UI元素

myListBox.ItemsSource = list;
