WPF Expander IsExpanded binding
I have an Expander
control with its IsExpanded
property bound to a bool in the mvvm model. The binding works fine until y开发者_运维问答ou dont touch the expander. Once you click the arrow in the expander to expand, the binding stops working. Setting the bool ShowPreview to false in the model doesn't collapse the expander.
<Expander Name="pExpander"
IsExpanded="{Binding Path=ShowPreview,Mode=OneWay}"
Header="Preview">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Message, Mode=OneWay}"></TextBlock>
</Expander>
If you remove Mode=OneWay
does that fix the problem?
Upon reading your other CTQ (changes to the GUI do not affect the model), I don't have a good suggestion for how to limit the change being seen by the underlying data. What is the difference in:
myModel.MyProperty = true; // in *your* code behind
And
myModel.MyProperty = true; // done by a binding
What caught me out here is that IsExpanded
is OneWay
by default, so
<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding Expanded}"/>
</Style>
doesn't work the way I expected. Only if you add Mode=TwoWay
, then it works (i.e. the item starts paying attention to my Expanded
property, and updating it), as in
<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding Expanded, Mode=TwoWay}"/>
</Style>
With Silverlight I do this:
xmlns:i="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactivity"
xmlns:ei="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactions"
<Expander Name="pExpander" IsExpanded="True" Header="Preview">
<i:Interaction.Triggers>
<ei:PropertyChangedTrigger Binding="{Binding ShowPreview, Mode=OneWay}">
<ei:ChangePropertyAction PropertyName="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding ShowPreview, Mode=OneWay}"/>
</ei:PropertyChangedTrigger>
</i:Interaction.Triggers>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Message, Mode=OneWay}"></TextBlock>
</Expander>
<Expander Name="pExpander1" IsExpanded="True" Header="Preview 1">
<i:Interaction.Triggers>
<ei:PropertyChangedTrigger Binding="{Binding ShowPreview, Mode=OneWay}">
<ei:ChangePropertyAction PropertyName="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding ShowPreview, Mode=OneWay}"/>
</ei:PropertyChangedTrigger>
</i:Interaction.Triggers>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Message1, Mode=OneWay}"></TextBlock>
</Expander>
//...
The binding is not lost when you manualy expand/collapse one Expander...
Do three things,
Make sure your ViewModel
is implementing INotifyPropertyChanged
. Your ui wont know about the change if your view model doesnt inform it when the property changes
Change the Mode to TwoWay
, you want your view model updated when the expander changes and you want your expander updated when the view model changes
Lastly if the above two don't work use a debug converter to ascertain if your binding is failing. there is an example here of how to do this. This is a technique every wpf developer needs.
I know there was an issue with radio buttons that they would lose their bindings when another button in the group was set, i don't think that is the issue here, however a debug converter will help you figure this out.
