I think I understand the usage of Messenger.Default.Register and Messenger.Default.Send . But how do I get the dialog results back in my viewmodel? To me the sending seems to be a one way street... Could someone help a beginner with a small C#/WPF code sample? Thanks for any help IMHO it is better to use the NotificationMessageAction<T> as it is cut out for this task.
