WPF - Databind to a StackPanel using DataTemplates

问题

I've modified my question since it has changed focus when trying things out. I narrowed the problem down to the following...

I try to bind the selected Item of a TreeView to a StackPanel (or some other container that can hold User Controls). This container will then display a UserControl, depending on the type of the selected item.

Here is the xaml of the StackPanel (both treeview and stackpanel are in the same window ==> different grid column)

<StackPanel Grid.Column="2" MinWidth="500" DataContext="{Binding ElementName=myTree, Path=SelectedItem, Mode=OneWay}">
    <StackPanel.Resources>
        <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type mvTypes:MyTypeA}">
            <controls:UserControlA DataContext="{Binding}" />
        </DataTemplate>
        <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type mvTypes:MyTypeB}">
            <controls:UserControlB DataContext="{Binding}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </StackPanel.Resources>
</StackPanel>

When I place a user control directly under the stackpanel (not in the resources), it displays it with the selected object as their datacontext. Idem if I place a TextBox in it, it will show the correct type of the selected item.

<TextBox Name="textBox1" Text="{Binding}" />

For some reason, placing it within a DataTemplate (even without setting the DataType) results in nothing to display.

Any sugestions. I'm thinking that maybe a StackPanel is not the right control for this, though I can't seem to find other controls that look suitable as containers like this.

Thanks in advance.

回答1:

Replace the StackPanel in your example with ContentPresenter and instead of DataContext set the Content property. That should work.

回答2:

Although you have set the Binding on the second custom control, are you setting the DataContext, as the binding is the route to the information and the DataContext is the information it applies this binding information to.

You can create a UserControl to display the TreeView and the selection info on the right, all in one. It saves you from creating any custom control. A custom control is basically unnecessary since you do not create anything which didn't exist before.

<UserControl x:Class="NameSpace.SelectionView"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:controls="namespace.Controls"
    Height="300" Width="300">
    <Grid>
        <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <ColumnDefinition/>
            <ColumnDefinition/>
        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <TreeView Name="customTree">
            <!--Items go here-->
        </TreeView>
        <StackPanel Grid.Column="1" MinWidth="50" DataContext="{Binding ElementName=customTree, Path=SelectedItem, Mode=OneWay}">
            <StackPanel.Resources>
                <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type StylingTest:CustomViewModelA}">
                    <controls:CustomADetailsControl />
                </DataTemplate>
                <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type StylingTest:CustomViewModelB}">
                    <controls:CustomBDetailsControl />
                </DataTemplate>
            </StackPanel.Resources>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding}"/>
        </StackPanel>
    </Grid>
</UserControl>

Any other custom behaviour, I'm sure you could create or set in styles/templates here.

Also, you might find one of my other answers useful.

Good luck with wpf, cheers.
