I would like to create a border around the currently selected item within a LongListSelector, but I am having trouble getting the proper implementation. From referencing http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/wpapps/Highlight-a-selected-item-30ced444 I have tried to follow the sample code by creating a custom Style to manage the selected item change, although I am trying to place a border around an image instead of a textbox. Also, I do have a custom ItemTemplate as my DataTemplate for my LongListSelector which manages the size of my bound images and controls a required ContextMenu for each item.
For some reason, I am having trouble adapting the sample to place a border around a selected item, but what I have so far is as follows
MainPage.xaml
<phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
<DataTemplate x:Key="ItemTemplate">
<!--<Border x:Name="brd" CornerRadius="10" BorderBrush="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}" Width="Auto" BorderThickness="3">-->
<Border x:Name="brd" CornerRadius="10" Width="Auto" BorderThickness="3">
<Viewbox Width="108" Height="108">
<Image x:Name="recentImage" Source="{Binding Source}" Margin="6,6" Width="108"/>
</Viewbox>
<toolkit:ContextMenuService.ContextMenu>
<toolkit:ContextMenu x:Name="imgListContextMenu" Background="{StaticResource PhoneChromeBrush}">
<toolkit:MenuItem Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" Header="edit" Click="editContextMenuItem_Click"/>
<toolkit:MenuItem Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" Header="favorite" Click="favoriteContextMenuItem_Click"/>
<toolkit:MenuItem Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" Header="delete" Click="deleteContextMenuItem_Click"/>
</toolkit:ContextMenu>
</toolkit:ContextMenuService.ContextMenu>
</Border>
</DataTemplate>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
...
<phone:LongListSelector x:Name="Recent" Margin="0"
Style="{StaticResource MyLongListSelectorStyle}"
SelectionChanged="recent_SelectionChanged"
toolkit:TiltEffect.IsTiltEnabled="True"
LayoutMode="Grid" GridCellSize="108,108"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemTemplate}"
/>
App.xaml
<Style x:Key="MyLongListSelectorStyle" TargetType="phone:LongListSelector" >
<!--<Setter Property="LayoutMode" Value="List"/>-->

<!--<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="Times New Roman"/>-->
<Setter Property="ItemTemplate">

</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<!--<StackPanel>

</StackPanel>-->
</Border>
</UserControl>
</DataTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
MainPage.xaml.cs
private void recent_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
var s = sender as LongListSelector;
var item = (sender as LongListSelector).SelectedItem;
if (item == null)
return;
// Get item of LongListSelector.
List<UserControl> listItems = new List<UserControl>();
GetItemsRecursive<UserControl>(Recent, ref listItems);
// Selected.
if (e.AddedItems.Count > 0 && e.AddedItems[0] != null)
{
foreach (UserControl userControl in listItems)
{
if (e.AddedItems[0].Equals(userControl.DataContext))
{
VisualStateManager.GoToState(userControl, "Selected", true);
}
}
}
// Unselected.
if (e.RemovedItems.Count > 0 && e.RemovedItems[0] != null)
{
foreach (UserControl userControl in listItems)
{
if (e.RemovedItems[0].Equals(userControl.DataContext))
{
VisualStateManager.GoToState(userControl, "Normal", true);
}
}
}
}
public static void GetItemsRecursive<T>(DependencyObject parents, ref List<T> objectList) where T : DependencyObject
{
var childrenCount = VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(parents);
for (int i = 0; i < childrenCount; i++)
{
var child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(parents, i);
if (child is T)
{
objectList.Add(child as T);
}
GetItemsRecursive<T>(child, ref objectList);
}
return;
}
I'm stuck on what to do from here, any ideas?
EDIT** slightly changed implementation but still not working.

I can't test it rigth now because I'm at work and I only have VS2010 but try changing
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}"/>
You need to use an integer. You are trying to change the thickness of the border using a color.
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="3"/>
[EDIT]
It seems that LongListSelector don't let us easily template the selected item... With the solution of Johannes Wanzek https://stackoverflow.com/a/13874389/1408558 I managed to do what you want:
Delete your old xaml and code behind code, and follow these steps.
You need to put those styles on top of your page
<phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
<Style x:Key="PhoneButtonBase" TargetType="ButtonBase">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="{StaticResource PhoneBorderThickness}"/>
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{StaticResource PhoneFontFamilySemiBold}"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="{StaticResource PhoneFontSizeMedium}"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="10,5,10,6"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ButtonBase">
<Grid Background="Transparent">
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">
<VisualState x:Name="Normal"/>
<VisualState x:Name="MouseOver"/>
<VisualState x:Name="Pressed">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Foreground" Storyboard.TargetName="ContentContainer">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{StaticResource PhoneButtonBasePressedForegroundBrush}"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Background" Storyboard.TargetName="ButtonBackground">
<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{StaticResource PhoneAccentBrush}"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Disabled">
<Storyboard>
<ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Foreground" Storyboard.TargetName="ContentContainer">

<DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="Transparent"/>
</ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames>
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<Border x:Name="ButtonBackground" BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" CornerRadius="0" Margin="{StaticResource PhoneTouchTargetOverhang}">
<ContentControl x:Name="ContentContainer" ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}" Content="{TemplateBinding Content}" Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" HorizontalContentAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}" VerticalContentAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
</Border>
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<Style x:Key="PhoneRadioButtonCheckBoxBase" BasedOn="{StaticResource PhoneButtonBase}" TargetType="ToggleButton">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource PhoneRadioCheckBoxBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="{StaticResource PhoneRadioCheckBoxBorderBrush}"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="{StaticResource PhoneFontSizeMedium}"/>
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="{StaticResource PhoneFontFamilyNormal}"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="0"/>
</Style>
<Style x:Key="RadioButtonStyle1" BasedOn="{StaticResource PhoneRadioButtonCheckBoxBase}" TargetType="RadioButton">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="RadioButton">
<Grid Background="Transparent">
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="CommonStates">

</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
And then use the LongListSelector like this:
<phone:LongListSelector x:Name="Recent" Margin="0"
toolkit:TiltEffect.IsTiltEnabled="True"
LayoutMode="Grid" GridCellSize="108,108" >
<phone:LongListSelector.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ContentControl HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalContentAlignment="Left">
<ContentControl.Resources>
<Storyboard x:Name="CheckedStoryboard">
<ColorAnimation Duration="0" To="Red" Storyboard.TargetProperty="(Border.BorderBrush).(SolidColorBrush.Color)" Storyboard.TargetName="brd" d:IsOptimized="True"/>
</Storyboard>
</ContentControl.Resources>
<RadioButton x:Name="radioButton" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Margin="0,0,0,0" GroupName="A" Background="Black" Style="{StaticResource RadioButtonStyle1}" >
<i:Interaction.Triggers>
<i:EventTrigger EventName="Click">
<eim:ControlStoryboardAction Storyboard="{StaticResource CheckedStoryboard}"/>
</i:EventTrigger>
<i:EventTrigger EventName="Unchecked">
<eim:ControlStoryboardAction ControlStoryboardOption="Stop" Storyboard="{StaticResource CheckedStoryboard}"/>
</i:EventTrigger>
</i:Interaction.Triggers>
<Border x:Name="MyBorder" Background="Transparent">
<Border x:Name="brd" CornerRadius="10" Width="Auto" BorderThickness="3" BorderBrush="Transparent">
<toolkit:ContextMenuService.ContextMenu>
<toolkit:ContextMenu x:Name="imgListContextMenu" Background="{StaticResource PhoneChromeBrush}">
<toolkit:MenuItem Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" Header="edit"/>
<toolkit:MenuItem Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" Header="favorite"/>
<toolkit:MenuItem Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" Header="delete"/>
</toolkit:ContextMenu>
</toolkit:ContextMenuService.ContextMenu>
<Viewbox Width="108" Height="108">
<Image x:Name="recentImage" Source="{Binding Source}" Margin="6,6" Width="108"/>
</Viewbox>
</Border>
</Border>
</RadioButton>
</ContentControl>
</DataTemplate>
</phone:LongListSelector.ItemTemplate>
</phone:LongListSelector>
And here some of the namespaces you may need:
xmlns:toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;assembly=Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Toolkit"
xmlns:i="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Interactivity;assembly=System.Windows.Interactivity"
xmlns:eim="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Expression.Interactivity.Media;assembly=Microsoft.Expression.Interactions"

Check out my alternative answer here How to highlight the selected item of long list selector in windows phone 8
It shows the example for the background color but could just as easily be adapted for the border color of something
Might not be the ideal way to do it but its simple and clean and works for me
