RadJumpList - no SelectedIndex

[Heather]

I have recently converted a ListBox control which is bound to MVVM data into a RadJumpList. To my surprise there is no SelectedIndex property associated with the RadJumpBox control. I am leveraging the item index in a navigation query to a second page in order to return a detail view of the selected item. With no SelectedIndex property for this JumpList how can I capture the selected item information?

Hello Heather,

Thanks for writing and for your question.

There is a SelectedItem property which returns the business object from the source collection that is currently selected. You can use this property to obtain information about the current selection in RadDataBoundListBox/RadJumpList.

Let me know if you need further assistance with this.

I resolved this by leveraging the following

// Handle selection changed on ListBox
private void MainListBox_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    if (MainListBox.SelectedItem != null)
    {
        var selectedIndex = (MainListBox.SelectedItem as ItemViewModel).LineSix;

        // Navigate to the new page
        NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/DetailsPage.xaml?selectedItem=" + selectedIndex, UriKind.Relative));
    }
}
