Question

I\'m facing a similar problem with this question however VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing=\"False\" didn\'t solve my problem. Is there anyone facing the sa

Answer 1

As my logic was in the SelectionChanged event, i wondered why the ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem method always returned null even if the Listbox.SelectedItem was not null and even more strange, Virtualisation was turned off! Looking at the ItemContainerGenerator.Status i saw that it was Primitives.GeneratorStatus.NotStarted then i added a simple test on ItemContainerGenerator.Status == Primitives.GeneratorStatus.ContainersGenerated and finally solved it that way and no need to subsribe to the Status_Changed event.
