Binding to Slider SelectionStart and SelectionEnd not working?

[Rob A.]

I read many threads on this issue and I'm just trying to do simple XAML only binding and not MVVM or code behind, but unfortunately I can't get it to work with RadSlider:

<TextBox Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="4" Text="{Binding ElementName=slHeightRange,Path=SelectionStart}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />
<telerik:RadSlider x:Name="slHeightRange" Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="5" Grid.ColumnSpan="1" Minimum="1" Maximum="50" HandlesVisibility="Visible" TickFrequency="5" TickPlacement="BottomRight" IsSelectionRangeEnabled="True">
    <telerik:RadSlider.Thumbs>
        <telerik:RangeSliderThumb RangeStart="5" RangeEnd="19"/>
    </telerik:RadSlider.Thumbs>
</telerik:RadSlider>
<telerik:Label Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="6" Content="{Binding ElementName=slHeightRange,Path=SelectionEnd}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />

 

Any hints?

Cheers, Rob.

Hi Robin,

Thank you for the provided code snippet.

The SelectionStart and SelectionEnd properties of the RadSlider will be set when using the default range selection. Adding RangeSliderThumb will be equal to set the IsSelectionRangeEnabled to false. In your case, you can use the same code but bind to the RangeSliderThumb element RangeStart and RangeEnd properties.

<TextBox Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="4" Text="{Binding ElementName=thumb,Path=RangeStart}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />
<telerik:RadSlider x:Name="slHeightRange" Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="5" Grid.ColumnSpan="1" Minimum="1" Maximum="50" HandlesVisibility="Visible" TickFrequency="5" TickPlacement="BottomRight" IsSelectionRangeEnabled="True" SelectionChanged="slHeightRange_SelectionChanged">
    <telerik:RadSlider.Thumbs>
        <telerik:RangeSliderThumb x:Name="thumb" RangeStart="5" RangeEnd="19"/>
    </telerik:RadSlider.Thumbs>
</telerik:RadSlider>
<telerik:Label Grid.Row="5" Grid.Column="6" Content="{Binding ElementName=thumb,Path=RangeEnd}" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />

Thanks Dinko, that solved it ... also discovered telerik:Label does support StringFormat, but TextBox does so all good.
