Populate Listbox with images from directory

Question

I'm kinda new at both programming, and WPF. I know that this is pretty easy, but I nothing I've tried as worked so far..... I want to fill a Listbox with images from a folder. I also need to know how to force my listbox from allowing scrolling to the side. So far I haven't stumbled upon anything that seems to work.

Here is my C# code that adds the files in chosen folder to a List Basically I want the Listbox to be use to keep a history log of the pictures that the user has chosen as backgrounds.

IList<Bitmap> HistoryImages = new List<Bitmap>();

foreach(String imagefile in Directory.GetFiles( @"C:\ProgramData\etc" ))
{
    HistoryImages.Add( new Bitmap( imagefile) );
}

Answer 1

Found something that worked for me! XAML Code:

<ListBox Name="ImageLog" Background="Transparent" IsEnabled="True"
    ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" 
    ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden" 
    ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Image}" BorderThickness="0" 
    SelectionChanged="ImageLog_SelectionChanged_1">
</ListBox>

C# Code:

foreach(string myFile in Directory.GetFiles( @"C:\ProgramData\MyApp" ) )
{
System.Windows.Controls.Image myLocalImage = new System.Windows.Controls.Image(); ;
myLocalImage.Height = 200;
myLocalImage.Margin = new Thickness( 5 );


BitmapImage myImageSource = new BitmapImage();
myImageSource.BeginInit();
myImageSource.UriSource = new Uri( @"file:///" + myFile );
myImageSource.EndInit();
myLocalImage.Source = myImageSource;

filePath.Add( myFile );
ImageLog.Items.Add(myLocalImage);
}

This requires the basics of data binding and data templating . (If you read and understood all that you should be able to do it.)

About the scrolling, set ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility as attached property on the ListBox to Disabled
