I'm trying to bind element's property in a child control to an element's property ina parent window, it doesn't work..
Here is png of what I'm trying to do:
Here is the xaml that doesn't work:
CurrentDate="{Binding ElementName=TimeBar, Path=SelectionStart,RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=Window}}"
Thanks.
create a dependency property in your usercontrol and then bind to it in your window
something like that: DependencyProperty implementations you can find all around here on stackoverflow
<YourUsercontrol x:Name="uc">
<YourSomeControl CurrentDate="{Binding ElementName=uc, Path=MyDp}"/>
</YourUsercontrol>
xaml window
<Window>
<ElementInParent x:Name="eip" />
<YourUsercontrol MyDp="{Binding ElementName=eip, Path=PropertyFromElementInParent}"/>
