I have the following collection which i would like to bind to a combobox:
public ObservableCollection<Parameter> Values
{ get; set; }
public class Parameter
{
public String Text { get; set; }
public String Value { get; set; }
}
I need to bind the display text of the combobox to the Text property of the Parameter class, I've tried the following ways below but all to no avail:
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values}" DisplayMemberPath="Parameter.Text"
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values}" DisplayMemberPath="Parameter\Text"
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values}" DisplayMemberPath="Text"
When I try the 3 methods above the [assembly name].Parameter is displayed in the combobox for each parameter.
The 2 methods above don't display anything in the combobox
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values, Path=Text}"
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values, Path=Values.Text}"
And this one takes the text of the first parameter,splits it into characters and displays each character as a seperate item in the combobox:
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values, Path=Values/Text}"
UPDATE:
This is the complete XAML code as requested
<ListBox BorderBrush="{x:Null}" Grid.Column="0" Height="100" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Grid.Row="1" ItemsSource="{Binding ItemParams}" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" Margin="2" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" Grid.Column="0" Margin="2" Text="{Binding Name}" Background="{Binding ElementName=cmbColors, Path=SelectedItem}"/>
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values}" DisplayMemberPath="Text" SelectedIndex="0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Grid.Column="1" Margin="2" Width="150" Name="cmbColors" >
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Margin="2, 1" Text="{Binding}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
Params class:
public class Params
{
public Params(String name, ObservableCollection<Parameter> values)
{
Name = name;
Values = values;
}
public String Name
{ get; set; }
public ObservableCollection<Parameter> Values
{ get; set; }
}
The correct formulation is one of those you already mention:
<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Values}" DisplayMemberPath="Text"
Please check again, and if it does not work post the XAML that you have verbatim.
