I need some quick help which is a road blocker for me now. I have Button
in ItemsControl
and I need to perform some task on Button click. I tried adding Command
to Button
in ItemsControl
DataTemplate
but its not working. Can anyone suggest how to proceed further.
<UserControl.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:key="mytask">
<TextBox Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="2" Text="{Binding Path=PriorNote}" Grid.ColumnSpan="7" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="0,5" Width="505" Foreground="Black"/>
<StatusBarItem Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="8" Margin="8,7,7,8" Grid.RowSpan="2">
<Button x:Name="DetailsButton" Command="{Binding CommandDetailsButtonClick}">
</DataTemplate>
</UserControl.Resources>
<Grid>
<ItemsControl Grid.Row="1"
ItemsSource="{Binding ListStpRules}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource myTaskTemplate}" Background="Black"
AlternationCount="2" >
</ItemsControl>
</Grid>
and in ViewModel I have implemented code for Command. And its not working. Please suggest any solution for me to proceed further
The DataContext
of each item in your ItemsControl
is the item in the collection the ItemsControl
is bound to. If this item contains the Command
, your code should work fine.
However, this is not usually the case. Typically there is a ViewModel containing an ObservableCollection
of items for the ItemsContro
l, and the Command to execute. If this is your case, you'll need to change the Source
of your binding so it looks for the command in ItemsControl.DataContext
, not ItemsControl.Item[X]
<Button Command="{Binding
RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type ItemsControl}},
Path=DataContext.MyCommand}" />
