Using a WPF controls own properties in Command Binding

.net, commandbinding, wpf

Solution

you need to use self binding :

<ToggleButton x:Name="_myToggle" 
              Command="{Binding SomeCommand}" 
              CommandParameter="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self},
                                         Path=IsChecked}">
    Apply Toggle
</ToggleButton>

Hope this helps!

Problem

I have a ToggleButton. I'm using a command binding, and I want to pass the value of its IsChecked property as a parameter. How can I do this without naming the ToggleButton and using its name to address itself? Currently I'm solving this by naming the control, but I assume this can be done a better way? ``` <ToggleButton x:Name="_myToggle" Command="{Binding SomeCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding ElementName=_myToggle, Path=IsChecked}"> Apply Toggle </ToggleButton> ```
