Is it possible to bind to a control's property from a datatemplate?
Ok, sounds odd, and there's likely a better way, but I haven't seen it yet.
What I'm trying to do is restyle a ListPicker under Windows Phone 7.
What I need is to
- get rid of the header (that's easy, just define a null ListPicker.HeaderTemplate).
- Force the picker to always go to full mode when clicked (again, easy, just set the ItemCountThreshold to 1).
- Restyle the itemtemplate used when in FullMode (again, easy, just define a FullModeItemTemplate)
- Incorporate the ListPicker's "HEADER" property value into the ItemTemplate (since only one item will ever show, i need the header text "embedded" within the one item).
It's that number 4 that I can't seem to get.
I've defined a listpicker like so (i'm directly defining the templates inline instead of in resources for now, just to keep things simple).
<phonekit:ListPicker Header="Header Text" x:Name="ListOfSounds"
SelectedItem="{Binding Path=DepartureChime, Mode=TwoWay, Converter={StaticResource EnumDescriptionToStringConverter}}"
ItemCountTh开发者_运维知识库reshold="1">
<phonekit:ListPicker.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Background="Transparent">
<TextBlock Text="{TemplateBinding Header}" />
<TextBlock Text="{Binding}" />
<TextBlock Text=">" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</phonekit:ListPicker.ItemTemplate>
Ignoring all the obvious formatting bits for now, the problem I'm having is that I can't use {TemplateBinding Header} from within a datatemplate. I've used it from a ControlTemplate no problem.
The result of this ItemTemplate should be an item displayed such as
{TextOfHeader}{Content of selected Item}>
I'm just not sure how to go about getting at a property of the templated control (the listpicker in this case).
Any ideas?
Take advantages of RelativeSource:
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Header, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type phonekit:ListPicker}}}" />
