I have created a custom control with a style. Everything is working fine but the ContextMenu I'm trying to add doesn't show any items.
ButtonAnalysisControl (Custom Control)
internal class ButtonAnalysisControl : Control
{
static ButtonAnalysisControl()
{
DefaultStyleKeyProperty.OverrideMetadata(typeof(ButtonAnalysisControl), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(typeof(ButtonAnalysisControl)));
}
public string Text
{
get { return (string)GetValue(TextProperty); }
set { SetValue(TextProperty, value); }
}
public Brush BackgroundBrush
{
get { return (Brush)GetValue(BackgroundBrushProperty); }
set { SetValue(BackgroundBrushProperty, value); }
}
public ObservableCollection<ViewCommand> ChildCommands
{
get { return (ObservableCollection<ViewCommand>)GetValue(ChildCommandsProperty); }
set { SetValue(ChildCommandsProperty, value); }
}
public static readonly DependencyProperty TextProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("Text", typeof(string), typeof(ButtonAnalysisControl), new UIPropertyMetadata(string.Empty));
public static readonly DependencyProperty BackgroundBrushProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("BackgroundBrush", typeof(Brush), typeof(ButtonAnalysisControl), new UIPropertyMetadata(Brushes.Transparent));
public static readonly DependencyProperty ChildCommandsProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("ChildCommands", typeof(ObservableCollection<ViewCommand>), typeof(ButtonAnalysisControl), new UIPropertyMetadata(null));
}

ButtonAnalysisControls are created at runtime and they are set as the content of an adorner (this happens in the constructor of the adorner). Relevant code:
public ButtonAnalysisAdorner(UIElement adornedElement, int numberOfTimesFieldFilled, int numberOfLoggedViews, ObservableCollection<ViewCommand> childCommands)
: base(adornedElement)
{
_visuals = new VisualCollection(this);
_contentPresenter = new ContentPresenter();
ButtonAnalysisControl bac = new ButtonAnalysisControl();
bac.Text = percentage.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
bac.BackgroundBrush = PercentColorRanges.GetColorFromPercentage((int)percentage, 0.75);
bac.ToolTip = ToolTipValue(numberOfTimesFieldFilled, numberOfLoggedViews);
bac.ChildCommands = childCommands;
Content = bac;
_visuals.Add(_contentPresenter);
}
I inspected ButtonAnalysisControl with Snoop. ChildCommands doesn't always have items. But I looked at a ButtonAnalysisControl from which I know it has ChildCommands. I saw that the ChildCommands dependency property had a collection with two items and ButtonAnalysisControl.ContextMenu.Items had value: 0. I don't know why the contextmenu doesn't have any items, I want the contextmenu to be bound with ChildCommands. How to fix this?
I don't think the Templated Parent
binding will work like you want it to. The ContextMenu
definition isn't in a template.
You could try something like this:
<Style TargetType="anal:ButtonAnalysisControl">
...
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="anal:ButtonAnalysisControl">
<Grid Background="Transparent" Tag="{Binding ChildCommands,RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}}">
<Grid.ContextMenu>
<ContextMenu ItemsSource="{Binding Path=PlacementTarget.Tag, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}">
...
A couple of notes here:
DataContext
inheritance, that's why we're going through the Tag
property MouseDown
trigger as well to be in the template
