[Solved] Bindings in two diferent Datatemplates for the same control

[Artur]

Hi,

I'm doing a generic controller, right now is one Radbutton with two different datatemplates. Each dataTemplate has an specific key and in code-behind i will change between them.

My problem is i cannot do the binding to my properties. For example:

My Xaml looks like:

<telerik:RadButton x:Class="Itim.Framework.Silverlight.UI.Controls.Button"
                   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
                   xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
                   xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"
                   xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Itim.Framework.Silverlight.UI.Controls"
                   SizeChanged="btnGeneric_SizeChanged">
    <telerik:RadButton.Resources>

        <!--Default dataTemplate-->
        <DataTemplate x:Key="Standard">
            <StackPanel DataContext="{Binding}" Orientation="Horizontal">
                <Image Source="{Binding ImageSource}" Visibility="{Binding ImageVisibility}"
                       Stretch="Fill" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalAlignment="Right" />
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Content, Mode=TwoWay, RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}}"
                           TextAlignment="Center" Visibility="{Binding TextVisibility,Mode=TwoWay}" Width="{Binding TextBlockWidth}" />
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>

        <!--Ok button data template-->
        <DataTemplate x:Key="Ok">
            <StackPanel DataContext="{Binding}" Orientation="Horizontal" >
                <Image Source="{Binding ImageOkSource}" Visibility="{Binding ImageVisibility}"
                       Stretch="Fill" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding DefaultOkText}" Visibility="{Binding TextVisibility,Mode=TwoWay}"
                           TextAlignment="Center" Width="{Binding TextBlockWidth}"/>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>

    </telerik:RadButton.Resources>
</telerik:RadButton>

and in c# when i wanna change the datatemplate i do something like this:

this.ContentTemplate = this.Resources["Standard"] as DataTemplate;

My button class will inherit from the RadButton, and every property is defined there (like ImageSource or DefaultOkText of the image binding in the Xaml i post).

But when i use this controller, with for example the Standard datatemplate, the image (from ImageSource) doesn't show, but the Text from the textblock shows. The same happens when i change for the OK datatemplate (in this case will not put anything because the binding of ImageOkSource or DefaultOkText will not do).

What can i do to get this working?

Thanks

Hello Artur,

What is the type and value of ImageSource property? If the text is working, but the Image is not, means that you don't have correct values for Image.Source property.
Can you send us example project, so we will be able to assist you further?
Thank you.
