Help with binding the checkbox in DataboundListbox

[GJ Kuz]

Dear Telerik Team,

Is it possible to bind the checkbox in the DataboundListbox? I am using the following datatemplate as the ItemTemplate of the RadDataboundListbox.

<phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>
        <DataTemplate x:Key="ListBoxItemTemplate">
            <Grid HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Width="420">
                <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
                </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                    <RowDefinition Height="50*"/>
                    <RowDefinition Height="50*"/>
                </Grid.RowDefinitions>


                <CheckBox
                    IsChecked="{Binding IsFavorite, Mode=TwoWay}"
                    Grid.Column="0" Grid.RowSpan="2" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>

                <TextBlock
                    Text="{Binding Title}"
                    FontSize="{StaticResource PhoneFontSizeLarge}"
                    Grid.Column="1"
                    VerticalAlignment="Top"
                    Margin="-36, 12, 0, 0"/>

                <TextBlock
                    Text="{Binding Description}"
                    FontSize="{StaticResource PhoneFontSizeMedium}"
                    Grid.Column="1"
                    Grid.Row="1"
                    VerticalAlignment="Top"
                    Margin="-36, 12, 0, 0"
                    TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
            </Grid>
        </DataTemplate>
    </phone:PhoneApplicationPage.Resources>

This is my RadListbox. By default I want the checkboxes to be visible. Is there any way I could eliminate the Checkbox from my DataTemplate and bind the IsFavorite property to the built-in checkbox in RadDataBouldListbox? I would prefer to use the built-in checkbox since I am using the ItemCheckedStateChanging event.

 

<telerikPrimitives:RadDataBoundListBox
               x:Name="lstItems"
               Margin="-10,0,-12,0"
               CheckModeDeactivatedOnBackButton="False"
               EmptyContent=""
               IsCheckModeEnabled="True"
               IsCheckModeActive="True"
               ItemsSource="{Binding Items}"
               Grid.Row="1"
               ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ListBoxItemTemplate}"
               ItemCheckedStateChanging="lstItems_ItemCheckedStateChanging"/>

Really appreciate some help on this.

thanks,
Gilles

Hello Gilles,

Thank you for your question.

If you want to use the built-in checkbox, you can use the ItemCheckedPath property. In your case you should simply add

ItemCheckedPath = "IsFavorite"

I hope this helps. Have a great day!
