If you are going to post code classes, then throw us a bone and at least post the right code classes. How on earth could we guess this based on your original posting?

I figured it out.
1) Set the bindng to just Caption.
2) In the VM I did:
private void loadAddress()
{
Street1 = Address.Street1;
Street2 = Address.Street2;
City = Address.City;
State = Address.State;
ZipCode = Address.ZipCode;
var addressType = (from at in AddressTypes
where at.Id == Address.AddressType.Id
select at).FirstOrDefault();
SelectedAddressType = addressType;
}
I was hoping to do it just with bindings, but this works.

I have a TreeView Control populated by a Public Property in a ViewModel:
<TreeView HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Margin="5" Name="TreeView1"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Grid.Row="2"
ItemsSource="{Binding Path=AssetTree.FirstGen}">
<TreeView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type TreeViewItem}">
<Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="{Binding IsExpanded., Mode=TwoWay}"/>
<Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay}"/>
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Normal"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold"/>
</Trigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</TreeView.ItemContainerStyle>
<TreeView.ItemTemplate>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding Children}">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Image Source="/MMS.Modules.Maintenance;component/Images/Tooling.png" Height="20"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Code}"/>
</StackPanel>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</TreeView.ItemTemplate>
</TreeView>
How do I bind the Image control to a property of the child collection? e.g. the Category property?
Do I use a converter for this?

Same way you are with Code. You don't need a converter, just return the ImageSource from the VM.

Try this sample, its not working in the code behind like your example code, but insted relys on styles bindings and triggers to achieve what you are after.
<StackPanel>
<ComboBox Name="Options">
<sys:String>One</sys:String>
<sys:String>Two</sys:String>
</ComboBox>
<GroupBox Header="One">
<GroupBox.Style>
<Style TargetType="GroupBox">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="One">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</GroupBox.Style>
</GroupBox>
<GroupBox Header="Two">
<GroupBox.Style>
<Style TargetType="GroupBox">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="Two">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</GroupBox.Style>
</GroupBox>
</StackPanel>

Thanks for ur reply but i have so many items in combobox by which groupbox visibily will depend.. nearly 10 items in combobox
|
|
|
|

Same sample but with three optins in the combo box working on visibility of two group boxes.
<StackPanel>
<ComboBox Name="Options">
<sys:String>One</sys:String>
<sys:String>Two</sys:String>
<sys:String>Three</sys:String>
</ComboBox>
<GroupBox Header="OneOrThree">
<GroupBox.Style>
<Style TargetType="GroupBox">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="One">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="Three">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</GroupBox.Style>
</GroupBox>
<GroupBox Header="Two">
<GroupBox.Style>
<Style TargetType="GroupBox">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="Two">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</GroupBox.Style>
</GroupBox>
</StackPanel>

ok Thank you but my form contains so many groupboxes which will be changed as per selecting the combo items.. I appreciate your help. 
Any other method of writing it in codebehind by using a switch case will be helpful.

It is worth noting that the resources can be placed in different places, and the are in scope in any elements below where they are created, also they can be kept out of the way in resource dictionarys. Hopefully one of these solutions will work for you even if it is the code behind one.
<StackPanel>
<StackPanel.Resources>
<Style TargetType="GroupBox" x:Key="OneAndThree">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="One">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="Three">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
<Style TargetType="GroupBox" x:Key="Two">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding ElementName=Options, Path=SelectedItem}" Value="Two">
<Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Visible"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</StackPanel.Resources>
<ComboBox Name="Options">
<sys:String>One</sys:String>
<sys:String>Two</sys:String>
<sys:String>Three</sys:String>
</ComboBox>
<GroupBox Name="group1" Header="OneOrThree" Style="{StaticResource OneAndThree}">
</GroupBox>
<GroupBox Name="group2" Header="Two" Style="{StaticResource Two}">
</GroupBox>
</StackPanel>

if you are set on doing this in the code behind then i think i will need a better sample or your code to help you. The following is working for me:
<StackPanel>
<ComboBox Name="Options" SelectionChanged="SelectionChanged">
<sys:String>One</sys:String>
<sys:String>Two</sys:String>
<sys:String>Three</sys:String>
</ComboBox>
<GroupBox Name="group1" Header="OneOrThree">
</GroupBox>
<GroupBox Name="group2" Header="Two">
</GroupBox>
</StackPanel>
private void SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
var selected = (sender as ComboBox).SelectedItem as String;
switch (selected)
{
case "One":
group1.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
group2.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
break;
case "Two":
group1.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
group2.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
break;
case "Three":
group1.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
group2.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
break;
default:
group1.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
group2.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
break;
}
}
It would be worth throwing some checks in on the (sender as ComboBox) etc incase you call the event from the wrong place but i'll leave that to you to sort out

should I set all the groupboxes visible or hidden in pageload ?
I have taken grid inside the groupboxes and arranged my controls like textboxes..
If I make groupboxes visible in pageload then while debugging it is showing all the controls in Groupboxes but combo selection change event not working.
|
|
|
|
|
have you put a break point in to check that the SelectionChanged Event is being triggered and passed through to the event handler?
If you don't set the vivibility explicitly in the PageLoad is the combo box working as expected?
I'm not able to reproduce your problem here at all from the information you have provided, so include the WPF where you decalre your combo box, page load event and at least one group box. also include the code for your selection chanage event handler and page load event handler.
Or send me your project via email(my profile > right click homepage >copy link location) email address is there for a short while.

Hi everyone,
This is Sunil here. I am trying to find a job in WPF field having 1 Years of experience. But, i have some basic knowledge of WPF, actually my field was in Win-forms. But, nowadays WPF is future oriented technology, so i want to build carrier in WPF. I have some basic knowledge in Data-binding, animation, styles and templates etc. I have to know which framework is more required by software companies in MVVM among Prism, MVVM Light, Cliburn. I have basic practical knowledge in MVVM light framework. It's very simple to implement as compare to Prism. So, friends, Please guide me which framework should i read regarding Job in a S/W company? Any other link for that?
Thanks and Regards:
Sunil Paul,

I already answered this question here[^]. Please post your question in one forum only.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

When I change an item in an ObservableCollection, how do I update the UI?
I have an ObservableCollection of AddressEntity.
When I change an street on an item in the collection, the UI doesn't reflect it.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is
|
|
|
|
|
The ObservableCollection effectively just updates the UI when items are added, removed, moved, etc. If you want to update the UI based on a change to the property then you have to raise the change notification on that property (via INotifyPropertyChanged).
|
|
|
|
|
You mean implement INotifyPropertyChanged in the AdressEntity?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is
|
|
|
|
|
Yes. That's how WPF receives information that only a particular property has changed (don't forget that the BindingMode has to be considered here as well). The BindingMode tells WPF which direction change notification goes.
|
|
|
|
|
Thats where I thought you were going.
Then I thought, right now, my entities are simply made up of auto-implemented properties. This means I have to implement each property. That's a hell of alot of code to add to each entity, especially considering my entites are going to be used in an MVC3 app as well as my WPF app. That would mean putting WPF-specific code in classes use for non-WPF platforms.
This doesn't feel right.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

How have you autogenned those properties? If it's Entity Framework for instance, it can auto gen the prop change code for you.
|
|
|
|
|
No, simply
public string Caption {get; set; }
How their generated is irellevant here. The entities are in a seperate Entities project used by 2 diferent UI projects - WPF and Web.
So now we're talking about going from
public class AddressEntity : _EntityBase
{
public string Caption { get; set; }
public string Street1 { get; set; }
public string Street2 { get; set; }
public string City { get; set; }
public string State { get; set; }
public string ZipCode { get; set; }
}
to
private string _Caption = string.Empty;
public string Caption
{
get { return _Caption; }
set
{
if (_Caption != value)
{
_Caption = value;
RaisePropertyChanged("Caption");
}
}
}
.
.
.
.
}
That's a tremendous amount of code in many entities just to support WPF.
One possibility is in the WPF UI simple reload the list from data.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Even I beg to differ here, a good code generator is priceless. I believe EF 4 does this but I wrote my own many years ago and would not work without it!
You basic issue still exists and is one I am contemplating, UI code in your entity (model in my case) classes that is used by a non UI consumer. This is precisely what we do, the WCF and the Silverlight UI reference the same model which has fully implemented properties.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

My point was, whether generated by a tool, or typed in my me, is irellevant.
