I'm having problems with the SizingMode of ButtonTools in a RibbonGroup when the tools are populated through databinding.

On the datacontext I have a collection of ButtonToolData objects. I have a DataTemplate for the ButtonToolData type that contains a igRibbon.ButtonTool. When I databind the RibbonGroup.ItemsSource to the collection I get the list of tools as expected.

The problem is that the SizingMode ( which is readonly) doesn't seem to adapt itself to the current MaximumSize property. The SizingMode value of the ButtonTools is equal to ImageAndTextNormal even if the MaximumSize prop is set to ImageAndTextLarge.

In the case where I add the tools manualy to the group the SizingMode calculates properly (problem only occurs when databinding).

Below is a piece of xaml to illustrate the problem. the first group contains tools through databinding, the second group contains hardcoded tools. For testing purposes I have hardcoded the MaximumSize=ImageAndTextLarge in the datatemplate so that each generated ButtonTool is set to 'ImageAndTextLarge'. For some reason it creates a large button as expected but shows the smallImage instead of the largeImage....

Any idea how I can force it to use the correct SizingMode ?

<Window.Resources>

<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type local:ButtonToolData}">

<igRibbon:ButtonTool Caption="{Binding Caption}"

SmallImage="{StaticResource about_16}"

LargeImage="{StaticResource about_32}" igRibbon:RibbonGroup.MaximumSize="ImageAndTextLarge"/>

</DataTemplate>

<ItemsPanelTemplate x:Key="TestPanel">

<igRibbon:ToolHorizontalWrapPanel IsItemsHost="True" />

</ItemsPanelTemplate>

</Window.Resources>

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">

<igRibbon:XamRibbon x:Name="myRibbon" DockPanel.Dock="Top">

<igRibbon:RibbonTabItem>

<igRibbon:RibbonGroup Caption="test" ItemsSource="{Binding Tools}" ItemsPanel="{StaticResource TestPanel}" />

<igRibbon:RibbonGroup Caption="test2">

<igRibbon:ToolHorizontalWrapPanel>

<igRibbon:ButtonTool Caption="large" igRibbon:RibbonGroup.MaximumSize="ImageAndTextLarge" SmallImage="{StaticResource about_16}" LargeImage="{StaticResource about_32}"/>

<igRibbon:ButtonTool Caption="normal" igRibbon:RibbonGroup.MaximumSize="ImageAndTextNormal" SmallImage="{StaticResource about_16}" LargeImage="{StaticResource about_32}"/>

<igRibbon:ButtonTool Caption="normal" igRibbon:RibbonGroup.MaximumSize="ImageAndTextNormal" SmallImage="{StaticResource about_16}" LargeImage="{StaticResource about_32}"/>

</igRibbon:ToolHorizontalWrapPanel>

</igRibbon:RibbonGroup>
