Value Converter Without Binding On Image Source

Question

Hi,

I need to get the path of an image through a value converter. However I can't find any examples of using a value converter without binding.

I would be looking to do something along these lines:

<Image source="{Value=Image1, Converter={ImageConverter}}" />

The image converter will then go check an image folder and return the correct file path.

Answer 1

Why not just use a Binding like this:

<Image Source="{Binding ., Converter={StaticResource ImageConverter}, ConverterParameter=Image1}"/>

Won't that suffice?
