Textbox in toolbar

[David Ocasio]

Having an issue where I have put a textbox in a toolbar.

The textbox Text is  bound to a property of a Viewmodel but the setter does not get exercised.

it seems as though focus is never lost from the textbox even if the next item does receive focus.

I would have sworn I have used this setup before without issue.

I pulled the code into a simpler project just to verify I was not crazy and it acted the same.

if I pull the textbox out of the toolbar it works fine.

It must be something stupid I am doing. but  i cant see it. What am I doing wrong.

Any help would be appreciated

 

            <telerik:RadToolBarTray Width="400" >
                <telerik:RadToolBar >
                    <TextBox Text="{Binding Main.Cali ,Mode=TwoWay}" Width="100" />
                </telerik:RadToolBar>
            </telerik:RadToolBarTray>

Thanks

Dave.

Hi David,

Thank you for the provided details.

I have double-checked this, and the setter is called as expected. What I think you are trying to achieve is to update the bound property on every key input. In this case, you can set the UpdataSourceTrigger property of the binding to PropertyChanged.

<telerik:RadToolBarTray VerticalAlignment="Center" Width="460" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
            <telerik:RadToolBar>
                <TextBox Text="{Binding MyItem.Header,Mode=TwoWay,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/>
            </telerik:RadToolBar>
           
        </telerik:RadToolBarTray>

Give this approach a try and let me know how it goes.
