Strictly speaking, in this case he doesn't because of the sequence of events he's using to hook things up. At the point he assigns Name, the class isn't bound to the DataContext so there's nothing for the PropertyChangedEventHandler to raise the notification to.

 

<Grid Name="GrdParams" >
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" Text="Frequency"  VerticalAlignment="Center" />
<Slider Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Minimum="0" Maximum="0.25" SmallChange="0.001" Value="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=Frequency}" ValueChanged="FreqSlider_ValueChanged" />
<TextBlock Name="TxtFreq" Grid.Column="2" Grid.Row="0" />
</Grid>

private void FreqSlider_ValueChanged(object sender, RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs<double> e)
{
    if (this.TxtFreq != null)
    {
        this.TxtFreq.Text = (sender as Slider).Value.ToString("###0.####");
    }

How can I render this on a canvas of the main thread after the background thread is completed?
