One of my data sources produces a collection of values which are typed to the following interface
public interface IData
{
string Name { get; }
FrameworkElement VisualElement { get; }
}
I'd like to use data binding in WPF to display a collection of IData
instances in a TabControl
where the Name
value becomes the header of the tab and the VisualElement
value is displayed as the content of the corresponding tab.
Binding the header is straight forward. I'm stuck though on how to define a template which allows me to display the VisualElement
value. I've tried a number of solutions with little success. My best attempt is as follows.
<TabControl ItemsSource="{Binding}">
<TabControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Label Content="{Binding Name}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.ItemTemplate>
<TabControl.ContentTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
How do I display VisualElement here?
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.ContentTemplate>
</TabControl>
I'm still very new to WPF so I could be missing the obvious here.
