Can't get hierarchical data to render correctly
posted

I am trying to create a very basic menu. I am using a data class that is simply a collection of strings (Titles) that may or may not have 1 to many subtitles that is filled at runtime. 

So I have,

GroupPanelsBusinessLogic that has an ObservableCollection<GroupPanelData>

GroupPanelData has a property, Title of type string and a property ChildPanelList of type ObservableCollection<GroupPanelData>

In my xaml, I bind to the GroupPanelsBusinessLogic as follows,

<Window.Resources>
<GroupPanels:GroupPanelsBusinessLogic x:Key="GroupPanelsBusinessLogic"/>
</Window.Resources>

...

<ig:XamMenu x:Name="xamNavigator"
                     Grid.Row="0"
                     ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource GroupPanelsBusinessLogic}, Path=GroupPanelList}">
    <ig:XamMenu.HierarchicalItemTemplate>
        <ig:HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding GroupPanelData}">
        <!-- Data template displays top level data -->
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Title}"/>
       </DataTemplate>

<!-- Item template displays child level data -->
<ig:HierarchicalDataTemplate.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Title}" />
    </DataTemplate>
</ig:HierarchicalDataTemplate.ItemTemplate>
</ig:HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</ig:XamMenu.HierarchicalItemTemplate>

</ig:XamMenu>

...

But I only get the root level menu items. I don't know what/how to bind the child items so that they display? I've tried using ChildPanelList.Title, ChildPanelList/Title, etc. but nothing seems to get them to display correctly.

I've attached a sample app demonstrating the problem.

Thanks,

Pat
