Image Binding & IValueConverters

[glen]

Dear Telerik,

I have an ObservableCollection that I am trying to bind the RadCoverflow to. Part of the class is a Thumbnail byte array

I have tried binding as follows :
coverflow.ItemsSource = POIResults;  where POIResults is ObservableCollection<POI>

then in the XAML I try DIsplayMemberPath={Binding Path=Thumbnail, Converter={StaticResource myImageConverter}}

the IValueConverter returns a BitmapImage.

However I am just getting the default Loading Image - what am I doing wrong - it's probably something obvious?

cheers

Hi glen,

Unfortunately, the DisplayMemberPath is a string property, not a binding. It creates a binding internally, but you don't have control of the value converter it uses. You should have the image directly as a property of the data object and to set as display member path just the name of the property. Hope this information helps.

Kind regards,
