RadOutlookbarItem Commands

[John Savold]

I'm building an app with Prism, MVVM and have a RadOutlookBar in a 'navigation region' and would like to change the 'content region' as RadOutlookBarItems are selected.
I would like to duplicate this type of functionality (from a menu item) in the RadOutlookBarItem

<telerik:RadMenuItem Header="New Account" Command="{Binding ShowView}" CommandParameter="NewAccount"> 

Any ideas on how to approach this?

Thanks,
 John

Hello John,

In your case I'd suggest using the InvokeCommandAction behavior. It allows attaching a command to an event:

<telerik:RadOutlookBar x:Name="myOutlookBar"
                        HorizontalAlignment="Left"
                        ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
    <i:Interaction.Triggers>
        <i:EventTrigger EventName="SelectionChanged">
            <i:InvokeCommandAction Command="{Binding ShowView}" CommandParameter="NewAccount" />
        </i:EventTrigger>
    </i:Interaction.Triggers>
    ...
</telerik:RadOutlookBar>

Please give this a try and let us know if it helps.

Kind regards,
