Display a variable-sized collection of TextBlocks/ComboBoxes in Silverlight 3

Question

I have a list of textual descriptions, each of which a user must score on a scale of 1-5. The number of textual descriptions is variable, so I can't just define a static Grid in XAML.

The following image shows approximately what I'm after:

In ASP.NET, I could bind my list of text items to a Repeater control. For each row, the text would be displayed in a Label, and next to it would be a DropDownList that contains a static list of items. Is there a similar control available in Silverlight?

Should I be using one of these?

• DataGrid
• ListBox
• Custom control derived from ItemsControl
• (Other)

Answer 1

I solved this by using an ItemsControl, and within the ItemTemplate I placed the TextBlock and ComboBox controls.

The only wrinkle for me was that the ComboBox depended on a separate DataContext, so I had to resort to using the DataContextProxy described in this article
