I'm working on a C++ Metro style app and have a problem with the binding inside an ItemTemplate of a ListView (or its items respectively). If I do it right in my Page.xaml it is working. The (simplified) code would be:
<ListView x:Name="m_listParts" ItemsSource="{Binding PartsList}> <ListView.ItemTemplate> <DataTemplate> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="60" Height="60"> <Grid> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Part}"/> </Grid> </StackPanel> </DataTemplate> </ListView.ItemTemplate> <ListView.ItemsPanel> <ItemsPanelTemplate> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/> </ItemsPanelTemplate> </ListView.ItemsPanel> </ListView> However, I would like to have the ItemTemplate definition in my resourceDictionary. But I cannot figure out how to get the binding working. It just seems to not find the bound properties anymore.
Here is my (simplified) try (since the ItemsPanel is working I suppose I loaded the dictionary itself properly):
<Style x:Key="PartsListListView" TargetType="ListView"> <Setter Property="ItemsPanel"> <Setter.Value> <ItemsPanelTemplate> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/> </ItemsPanelTemplate> </Setter.Value> </Setter> <Setter Property="ItemTemplate"> <Setter.Value> <DataTemplate> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="60" Height="60"> <Grid> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Part}"/> </Grid> </StackPanel> </DataTemplate> </Setter.Value> </Setter> </Style> The PartsList is an observable vector holding PartViewItem objects which consists of a Part property.
