Selected item in TreeMap

[Roei]

Hi

How can i get the selected item in the tree map?

Hi Roei,

We don't have selection implemented at the moment. Can you share how important that feature is for you? We can consider implementing it for the official release (non-beta).

Kind regards,

Can you offer some kind of a workaround? I'm in very very tight schedule and cannot wait for the official release.
I started by changing the item template and using a hyperlink button there but i need a way to pass the item key in order to use it.


Thanks

Hi Roei,

The data item is available in the datacontext of the treemapitem under the DataItem property.

I would also like to see a SelectedItem property as well as a Selected Event being raised.  Currently I am using "AddHandler treemapItem.MouseLeftButtonUp, AddressOf ie.MouseLeftButtonUp" at the end of the Apply Method in the CustomMapping.

To give you an idea what we are using it for, we are building a "Media Browser" that lets you tag content (mostly images) and search for them by tag.  When you browse or search by tag we are using the TreeMap to display the results (bigger images match more tags than smaller ones).  It all works, but it would be nice to have a simple SelectedItem and Selected Event.
