I have a ComboBox whose ItemSource is a ListCollectionView of MyClass. The ComboBox uses the following ItemTemplate:
<Style x:Key="StyleComboBoxGroups" BasedOn="{StaticResource BaseComboBox}" TargetType="{x:Type ComboBox}">
<Setter Property="ItemTemplate">
<Setter.Value>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<BulletDecorator VerticalAlignment="Center">
<BulletDecorator.Bullet>
<Ellipse Margin="3,0,0,0" Width="4" Height="4"/>
</BulletDecorator.Bullet>
<TextBlock Margin="3,0,0,0" Style="{StaticResource BaseTextBlock}" Text="{Binding}"/>
</BulletDecorator>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
MyClass exposes two properties:
public sealed class MyClass { public MyEnum Property1 { get; set; } public String Property2 { get; set; } }
I'm trying to figure out how to make the TextBlock.Foreground color depending on Property1. For the moment I tried these to no avail:
Foreground="{Binding Property1, Converter=MyEnumToColorConverter}"
Foreground="{Binding Converter=MyEnumToColorConverter, Path=Property1}"
Foreground="{Binding Converter=MyEnumToColorConverter, Path=Property1, Source={Binding}}"
But I always get an Exception. How can I bind to the ComboBox item properly?
Declare a resource that will be an instance of your converter.
<Style.Resources>
<namespace:MyEnumToColorConverter x:Key="MyEnumToColorConverter" />
</Style.Resources>
… then use that resource in your binding:
Foreground="{Binding Property1, Converter={StaticResource MyEnumToColorConverter}}"
An alternative is to reference your converter statically, in which case you will not need to create a resource instance. Turn your converter into a singleton:
public class MyEnumColorConverter : IValueConverter
{
private MyEnumColorConverter() { }
private static IValueConverter _instance;
public static IValueConverter Instance
{
get { return _instance ?? (_instance = new MyEnumColorConverter); }
}
// implement IValueConverter
}
In XAML you will reference it like this:
Foreground="{Binding Property1, Converter={x:Static namespace:MyEnumColorConverter.Instance}}"
If you in fact have a converter of type MyEnumToColorConverter
, then in order to use it in a binding, you'll need to first declare an instance of it. Typically, you'll do that in the Resources
section of the parent control (or style,) something like:
<Style.Resources>
<myNamespace:MyEnumToColorConverter x:Key="EnumToColorConverter" />
</Style.Resources>
Then, you can reference it with a StaticResource
markup extension:
Foreground="{Binding Path=Property1, Converter={StaticResource EnumToColorConverter}}"
