txtNavn dont get databinding but txtNavn2 does

The problem is that there is 2 text boxes but only one get databinding

<StackPanel>

<igEditors:XamTextEditor

Name="txtNavn"

Text="{Binding Path=Navn}" />

<TextBox

Name="txtNavn2"

Text="{Binding Path=Navn}"></TextBox>

</StackPanel>

So is the second TextBox showing up blank when you run the project on your machine? Is it always blank for every tile that you mazimize or move around?

In the screenshot for my last post, you can see that the second TextBox contains the same text as the first. This seems to indicate that it is working for me. Am I perhaps missing a step to reproduce the problem on my machine? If not, do you have a secondary machine you can run this on to test (just in case there is a problem with your current installation)?

Thank you!

As I can in you screenshot you get the same error

the XamTextEditor is always blank, no databinding

TextBox And TextBlock controls always get databinding

Hi Christian,

OK. I finally understand what is going on. I missed that the XamTextEditor in your sample was not displaying the text.

When the editor goes into edit mode, the editor recalculates the text property by reconverting the value to a string. This causes the binding expression to not work. The solution is to bind to the 'Value' property, instead of 'Text'.

<igEditors:XamTextEditor Name="txtNavn" Value="{Binding Path=Navn}" />

If you prefer to use Text instead of Value, another solution is to set the property IsAlwaysInEditMode to true. Then the control will not enter or leave edit mode.

Sorry, I didn't spot this earlier in your XAML. Fortunately, your persistence has paid off!

Thanks for the replay

that works
