Problem
I have this ItemsControl in my View: ``` <ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding ItemPageItemViewModels}" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemPageItemViewModelsTemplate}"/> ``` And above it I have this DataTemplate which renders all the items: ``` <DataTemplate x:Key="ItemPageItemViewModelsTemplate"> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}"/> </DataTemplate> ``` The problem is that although there are 8 objects in the ItemPageItemViewModels ObservableCollection in my ViewModel, only the last object is being displayed on the screen 8 times. I can set a breakpoint in my ViewModel to see that there are indeed 8 different objects in the ObserverableCollection, but how can I debug the binding to see why this DataTemplate is rendering the last object in the collection 8 times upon my screen?
