Trouble with Icon in ApplicationMenu Using Dynamic Items from View Model
posted

Wit the following code I am getting text instead of an image in the Icon location.

 

In my ViewModel, I am exposing the Icon as a URI object, and have the following XAML code:

                                <igRibbon:XamRibbon.ApplicationMenu>
                                    <igRibbon:ApplicationMenu 
                                                Image="{Binding Path={x:Static vm:clsBaseGUIMenuViewModel.ApplicationIconPath}}"
                                                DataContext="{Binding Path={x:Static vm:clsBaseGUIViewModel.MenuViewModelPath}}"
                                                ItemsSource="{Binding Path={x:Static vm:clsBaseGUIMenuViewModel.AppMenuItemsPath}}">
                                        <igRibbon:ApplicationMenu.ItemContainerStyle>
                                            <Style TargetType="{x:Type igRibbon:ToolMenuItem}">
                                                <Setter Property="Header" Value="{Binding Path={x:Static vm:clsMenuItemViewModel.DisplayNamePath}}" />
                                                <Setter Property="Icon" Value="{Binding Path={x:Static vm:clsMenuItemViewModel.IconPath}}" />
                                                <Setter Property="Command" Value="{Binding Command}" />
                                            </Style>
                                        </igRibbon:ApplicationMenu.ItemContainerStyle>
                                    </igRibbon:ApplicationMenu>
                                </igRibbon:XamRibbon.ApplicationMenu>

 

Not sure what I am doing wrong, but help is appreciated.

    Found the solution.

     

    Exposed the property in the ViewModel as an ImageSource and added a DataTemplate

     

                                    <igRibbon:XamRibbon.Resources>
                                        <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type ImageSource}">
                                            <Image Source="{Binding}" />
                                        </DataTemplate>
                                    </igRibbon:XamRibbon.Resources>
