Loading images source dynamically with IValueConverter

Question

I\'ve problems with IValueconverter and dynamically load a row grid image:

public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Glob         


        

Answer 1

If you create the URI in code you have to write the full Pack URI including the pack://application:,,, part. In XAML this is not necessary as it is automatically added by the string-to-ImageSource TypeConverter.

var type = (string)value;
var uri = new Uri("pack://application:,,,/XConsole;component/Images/" + type + ".png");

Note that the above code sample uses a lowercase type identifier instead of Type to avoid confusion with the Type class.
