Hi,

The title is a bit wierd but couldn't think of a decent one as I experienced more than one issue (I think)

I have a Listbox and RadPanelBar in view
RadPanelBar has RadPanelBarItems
I have RadMaskedTextBox within a Grid in one of the RadPanelBarItems
Grid's datacontext is set to SelectedItem
The textbox (child of Grid) is bound to one of the properties of the SelectedItem property in Viewmodel.
Listbox's SelectedItem is also bound to this property in viewmodel.

Problem:

When the UI loads for the first time, the binding works fine
When I regenerate the list in the listbox and change the selecteditem, the textbox retains the original value
But when I set the datacontext of Grid to the SelectedItem, the textbox value changes and displays accordingly to the selecteditem in the listbox.
It works fine.

Could you explain why this happens?

Basically I want to set the Datacontext of the RadPanelBar so that I do not have to set the datacontext within each RadPanelBarItem.

Hello Deepak Shakya,

Could you please send us an isolated project showing this issue, its very hard to advice you certainly without viewing your code (especially XAML and ViewModels)? We changed this ticket's type to general feedback so that you are now able to attach files.
Thank you for your cooperation in advance.
