I have a panel bar and I am using the hierarchialdatatemplate. I am also using an MVVM pattern. My question is how can I set the IsSelected flag on my ViewModel with a setter property and/or trigger on mouse over so that I know which item in the panel bar is currently selected during a context menu action. I have this working on a listview, but I cannot get it to work with the panelbar. Any help or example would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Damon

Hello Damon,
What you can do, if I understand you correctly, is use the VisualTreeHelper.FindElementsInHostCoordinates() method when the context menu is displayed. The method returns a collection of visual elements that are rendered under the mouse cursor. You can search this collection for PanelBarItem objects and if there is one, it should be the one you are looking for. Let me know if this helps.
