Hi

I have a xamTabControl whose ItemsSource is bound to an observable collection of viewmodels and need to have editable tab headers. I am using the example found here:

http://blogs.infragistics.com/blogs/alex_fidanov/archive/2009/10/01/how-to-rename-the-tabitems-of-the-xamtabcontrol-runtime-like-excel.aspx

But the problem is that instead of the Header property, the object type ToString() is being displayed in the tab header. Any idea what I might have done wrong and how I can get the actual header property displayed?

In my view I have the following (along with the TabItemEx style specified above):

 <ig:XamTabControl ItemsSource="{Binding WorkspaceTabNames}"
                          TabStripPlacement="Bottom"
                          ContentTemplate="{StaticResource tabContentDataTemplate}"
                          Theme="Office2k7Blue">

Tried to modify the style of TabItemEx slightly to this:

<igEditors:XamTextEditor PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown="tbEdit_PreviewMouseDoubleClick"
         BorderThickness="0"
         Background="Transparent"
         EditModeStarting="tbEdit_EditModeStarting"
         EditModeEnding="tbEdit_EditModeEnding"
         Value="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent},
             Path=Header,
             Mode=TwoWay,
             UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/>

In the view model of my view containing the tab control:

public ObservableCollection<WorkspaceViewModel> WorkspaceTabNames
{
 get
 {
  return new ObservableCollection<WorkspaceViewModel>
       {
        new WorkspaceViewModel("Tab 1", "Content 1"),
        new WorkspaceViewModel("Tab 2", "Content 2"),
        new WorkspaceViewModel("Tab x", "Content x")
       };
 }
}

 And finally, the view model itself:

 public class WorkspaceViewModel: INotifyPropertyChanged
{
 public string Header { get; private set; }
 public string Content { get; private set; }

 public WorkspaceViewModel(string header, string content)
 {
  Header = header;
  Content = content;
 }
