WPF binding to two properties
binding, wpf
Solution
Try use the `MultiBinding`:
Describes a collection of Binding objects attached to a single binding target property.
Example:
`XAML`
<TextBlock>
<TextBlock.Text>
<MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource myNameConverter}"
ConverterParameter="FormatLastFirst">
<Binding Path="FirstName"/>
<Binding Path="LastName"/>
</MultiBinding>
</TextBlock.Text>
</TextBlock>
`Converter`
public class NameConverter : IMultiValueConverter
{
public object Convert(object[] values, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
string name;
switch ((string)parameter)
{
case "FormatLastFirst":
name = values[1] + ", " + values[0];
break;
case "FormatNormal":
default:
name = values[0] + " " + values[1];
break;
}
return name;
}
public object[] ConvertBack(object value, Type[] targetTypes, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
string[] splitValues = ((string)value).Split(' ');
return splitValues;
}
}
Problem
I have a WPF control that has a `Message` property. I currently have this: ``` <dxlc:LayoutItem > <local:Indicator Message="{Binding PropertyOne}" /> </dxlc:LayoutItem> ``` But i need that `Message` property to be bound to two properties. Obviously can't be done like this, but this can help explain what it is I want: ``` <dxlc:LayoutItem > <local:Indicator Message="{Binding PropertyOne && Binding PropertyTwo}" /> </dxlc:LayoutItem> ```
