如何在位于 Bindable StackLayouts 内的 ItemTemplateSelector 中引用父 DataTemplates 参数？

Question

This sounds like a mouthful but I have a BindableLayout.ItemTemplateSelector that is located inside of a DataTemplate . The problem is I can not pass a property of the DataTemplate 's ItemSource for some reason.

In section 'Data Template' , of 'The Code' below, I am trying to access properties inside of ItemSource="{Binding CarouselItems}" from within <controls:ThoughtEntryDataTemplateSelector> . However, I can't access anything inside of there except for StaticResource 's.

I'd like to pass a property from CarouselItems into it

The Code

Data Template

                    <cards:CarouselView
                        x:Name="ThoughtCarouselViewer"
                        IndicatorView="indicatorView"
                        IsCyclical="False"
                        ItemsSource="{Binding CarouselItems}">
                        <cards:CarouselView.ItemTemplate>
                            <DataTemplate>
                                <StackLayout>
                                    <Label
                                        x:Name="Title"

                                        Text="{Binding Header}"
                                        TextColor="{StaticResource TextColor}" />

                        </cards:CarouselView.ItemTemplate>
                    </cards:CarouselView>

DataTemplateSelector

    public class ThoughtEntryDataTemplateSelector : DataTemplateSelector
    {
        public DataTemplate NegativeThought { get; set; }
        public DataTemplate Distortions { get; set; }
        public DataTemplate ChallengingThought { get; set; }
        public ThoughtEntryType ThoughtType { get; set; }

        protected override DataTemplate OnSelectTemplate(object item, BindableObject container)
        {
            DataTemplate dataTemplate;

            if(ThoughtType == ThoughtEntryType.NegativeThought)
            {
                dataTemplate = NegativeThought;
            } else if(ThoughtType == ThoughtEntryType.Distortion)
            {
                dataTemplate = Distortions;
            } else
            {
                dataTemplate = ChallengingThought;
            }

            return dataTemplate;
        }
    }

Carousel Items

    public class ThoughtEntryCarouselItems
    {
        private string header;
        public string Header
        {
            get => header;
            set => header = value;
        }

        private ThoughtEntryType thoughtEntryType;
        public ThoughtEntryType ThoughtEntryType
        {
            get => thoughtEntryType;
            set => thoughtEntryType = value;
        }
    }

According to Creating a Xamarin.Forms DataTemplateSelector , I suggest you can choose a DataTemplate for CarouselView, not for StackLayout, then you can get current item ThoughtEntryType in OnSelectTemplate method, please see my code.

 <ContentPage.Resources>
    <DataTemplate x:Key="ChallengingThought">
        <StackLayout >
            <Label FontAttributes="Bold" Text="{Binding Header}" />
            <Frame CornerRadius="30" BorderColor="Black" BackgroundColor="AliceBlue">
                <StackLayout BindableLayout.ItemsSource="{Binding EntryContainers}" Orientation="Vertical">
                    <Label Text="{Binding .}" />
                </StackLayout>
            </Frame>
        </StackLayout>
    </DataTemplate>
    <DataTemplate x:Key="NegativeThought" >
        <StackLayout>
            <Label FontAttributes="Bold" Text="{Binding Header}" />
            <Frame  CornerRadius="30" BorderColor="Black" BackgroundColor="DarkGray">
                <StackLayout BindableLayout.ItemsSource="{Binding EntryContainers}" Orientation="Vertical">
                    <Label Text="{Binding .}" />
                </StackLayout>
            </Frame>
        </StackLayout>
    </DataTemplate>
    <DataTemplate x:Key="Distortions">
        <StackLayout >
            <Label FontAttributes="Bold" Text="{Binding Header}" />
