How to Bind Group Template Properties
posted

Hi all, I want to know how to bind the properties IsEnabled and Visibilty from the xaml in the outlookbar, for each element like : 

             <igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.GroupHeaderTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Header}" />
                </DataTemplate>
            </igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.GroupHeaderTemplate>

 or something like : <Setter Property="IsEnabled"> and there put some template for each group ...

Any help will be appreciated...

Paul.

    Hi Paul,
    Look at this small sample.
    DataItem class represents some external data. I added the Enabled and Visible properties to keep everything simple, but you may need to use converters.
    C#
    public class DataItem
    {
      public bool Enabled { get; set; }
      public Visibility Visible { get; set; }
      public string Name { get; set; }
    }
    private void xob_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
      ObservableCollection<DataItem> c = new ObservableCollection<DataItem>();
      c.Add(
    new DataItem { Name = "A", Enabled = true, Visible = Visibility.Visible });
      c.Add(
    new DataItem { Name = "B", Enabled = false, Visible = Visibility.Visible });
      c.Add(
    new DataItem { Name = "C", Enabled = true, Visible = Visibility.Collapsed });
      c.Add(
    new DataItem { Name = "D", Enabled = false, Visible = Visibility.Collapsed });
      xob.GroupsSource = c;
    }
    XAML 
    <igOB:XamWebOutlookBar x:Name="xob" Grid.Column="1" Loaded="xob_Loaded"> 
      <igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.GroupHeaderTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
          <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
           <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"/>
          </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
      </igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.GroupHeaderTemplate>
      <igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.GroupContentTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
          <StackPanel>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"/>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Enabled}"/>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Visible}"/>
          </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
      </igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.GroupContentTemplate>
      <igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.DefaultGroupsContainer>
        <DataTemplate>
          <igOB:OutlookBarGroup IsEnabled="{Binding Enabled}" Visibility="{Binding Visible}"/>
        </DataTemplate>
      </igOB:XamWebOutlookBar.DefaultGroupsContainer>
    </
    igOB:XamWebOutlookBar>
    Regards,
    Marin
