Answer 1

Like Pieter proposed i solved it with a inherited class like this:

public class ActiveTextBox:TextBox
    {
        public ActiveTextBox()
        {
            Loaded += ActiveTextBox_Loaded;
        }

        void ActiveTextBox_Loaded(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            Binding myBinding = BindingOperations.GetBinding(this, TextProperty);
            if (myBinding != null && myBinding.UpdateSourceTrigger != UpdateSourceTrigger.PropertyChanged)
            {
                Binding bind = (Binding) Allkort3.Common.Extensions.Extensions.CloneProperties(myBinding);
                bind.UpdateSourceTrigger = UpdateSourceTrigger.PropertyChanged;
                BindingOperations.SetBinding(this, TextBox.TextProperty, bind);
            }
        }
    }

and this helpmethod:

public static object CloneProperties(object o)
        {
            var type = o.GetType();
            var clone = Activator.CreateInstance(type);
            foreach (var property in type.GetProperties())
            {
                if (property.GetSetMethod() != null && property.GetValue(o, null) != null)
                    property.SetValue(clone, property.GetValue(o, null), null);
            }
            return clone;
        }

Any suggestion how to solve it better?
