Hello,

I'm trying to show an image on a button, however my issue is that the array item (i.e. CurrentPosition) is NULL, rather than the referenced .characterImage.

This means that the XAML doesn't process the TargetNullValue.

<Button>
  <Image>
      <Image.Source>
          <Binding Path="CurrentPosition[0,2].characterImage"
            <Binding.TargetNullValue>
                <ImageSource>Assets/PNG/Blank.png</ImageSource>
            </Binding.TargetNullValue>
          </Binding>
      </Image.Source>
 </Image>



I could do in C# code, but wanted to see if there is a XAML solution.

Thank you for your help.

What I have tried:

I have tried implementing a
NullableValueConverter

Where does CurrentPosition get set?

Thanks for your reply Richard.


public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
{
private aViewModel myViewModel = new aViewModel();

public MainPage()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
this.Loaded += OnLoaded;

this.DataContext = myViewModel;


myViewModel.StartNew();
}
}


//In the VM

public class aViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
public Character[,] CurrentPosition
{
get { return _currentPosition; }
private set { _currentPosition = value; RaiseProperty("CurrentPosition"); }
}

public void StartNew()
{
arrayOfClass[1,1] = new anObject();

CurrentPosition = arrayOfClass[1, 1];
}
}

I believe the issue is that the array Object hasn't been created, but the NullTarget isn't protecting the XAML. The XAML would be protected where the array Object existed and the referenced property within the object was null.

Always use  Reply  button, to post Comments/query to the user, so that the user gets notified and responds to your text.

You should update your question with the code so we can see it all in one place. However, I cannot understand what value is in there from the above. The offsets may well be invalid, which you can easily check with your debugger.
