WPF: Display a bool value as “Yes” / “No”

Question

I have a bool value that I need to display as \"Yes\" or \"No\" in a TextBlock. I am trying to do this with a StringFormat, but my StringFormat is ignored and the TextBlock

Answer 1

The following worked for me inside a datagridtextcolumn: I added another property to my class that returned a string depending on the value of MyBool. Note that in my case the datagrid was bound to a CollectionViewSource of MyClass objects.

C#:

public class MyClass        
{     
    public bool MyBool {get; set;}   

    public string BoolString    
    {    
        get { return MyBool == true ? "Yes" : "No"; }    
    }    
}
