I have an WPF application contains many TextBox
es having different kind of Bindings which all share the same StringFormat
property (its a technical application, the Textboxes should display values with units "xxx mm"...)
I want to set up the Binding in the XAML/Designer, but I'd like to avoid setting the TextFormat property on every individual Binding. Is there a way to do this using Styles?
If I try to set the Binding in a Setter
for the Text property like
<Style x:Name="mmtext" TargetType="TextBox" x:Key="mmtext">
<Setter Property="Text" Value="{Binding Path=A,StringFormat={}{0} mm}" />
</Style>
I need to provide a Path
in the Setters Value property, and I cannot define any binding in the XAML itself (as this would override the value set in the Style).
Is there a way to set/modify only the StringFormat
property in a single Binding (ie the Binding for the Text
property) using a Style?
Or do I need to look for templating or a custom control?
you could probably bind the DataContext of the textbox rather than the text property
<TextBox DataContext="{Binding Path=A}" />
and then use a setter like
<Style x:Name="mmtext" TargetType="TextBox" x:Key="mmtext">
<Setter Property="Text" Value="{Binding Path=., StringFormat={}{0} mm}" />
</Style>
for a TwoWay binding you will need a converter anyways to get rid of the extra mms
