Problem with

[Lance]

Hello,
I am running into a problem with the RadTileView, and the RadFluidContentControl.  I am binding the ItemsSource to a list in my ViewModel, and in turn, I am using the ContentTemplate to render the items, I added a RadFluidContentControl, and use the SmallContentTemplate, MediumContentTemplate, and LargeContentTemplate but it never changes the content in the template,  The same xaml using hard coded content seems to work fine.  Is this a bug in the RadFluidContentControl,or am I using it wrong? 
Below is the Xaml that I am working with.  Rooms is a list of classes with a "DisplayName" property.

Thanks in advance for any help.

        <telerik:RadTileView Margin="8" MinimizedColumnWidth="220" ItemsSource="{Binding Rooms}" >
            <telerik:RadTileView.ItemTemplate>

                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding DisplayName}">

Oops, this was supposed to have a title of "Problem with RadTileView, RadFluidContentControl and DataTemplates

Ok, I resolved this today at the office, but I didn't have time to post my changes.  I basically had to use the Content property of the fluid control, and change the way I was handling the templates.  I don't recall the specifics, but it was a pretty simple fix.  I'll try to post the code tomorrow in case anyone else needs it...

Here is the relevent change, all I needed to do was not use the fluidcontrol ContentTemplate and just set the datacontext in the child elements of the Content.  Pretty simple, and solved my problem if anyone else runs into it

                        <telerik:RadFluidContentControl.LargeContent>
                            <Grid DataContext="{Binding}">
                                <local:RoomControl Margin="10" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" DataContext="{Binding}/>
                            </Grid>
                        </telerik:RadFluidContentControl.LargeContent>
