RadMosaicHubTile Databinding

[Charaf]

Hello,
I'm trying to databing some images Urls to some RadMosaicHubTiles (and RadPictureRotatorHubtile) , and I cant figure out a way to do it correctly, can it be done via something like

 

<Controls:RadMosaicHubTile ImageSources="{Binding SongsCollection,ElementName=Uri}"/>
Any help would be appreciated,
thank you,

[Victor]

Hello Charaf,

Thank you for writing.
Please read this blog post. It describes how data binding works in Silverlight for Windows Phone.

Hello,
Actually I'm familiar with it, I just can't figure out how to bind a collection of images url (from my MVVM Viewmodel) to the ImageSources property.

Hello Charaf,

The items in the ImageSources value should be strings (uris). In your case all objects in SongsCollection should return a Uri string when their ToString() method is called. Also why does the ElementName attribute of your binding point to an element that is called Uri. Is this the name of a XAML element on your page?

You can see examples of RadMosaicHubTile in our examples application (Telerik Examples). Its source code is available for free and is installed along with the controls. 

All the best,
