I am using Caliburn Micro with WPF. I want to create an application with a menu on the left side, and a grid on the right side of the application. When clicking on a menu item, the grid on the right side, will change to another view. The another view will be in a separate file.
MainWindowView:
<UserControl x:Class="CMDemo.Views.MainWindowView"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300">
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="90*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="210*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<StackPanel Name="LeftMenu">
<Button Name="ChangeDisplay" Content="Click Me"></Button>
<TextBlock x:Name="MyString"></TextBlock>
</StackPanel>
<Grid Grid.Column="1" x:Name="MainGridContent" />
</Grid>
MainWindowViewModel:
public class MainWindowViewModel : PropertyChangedBase
{
private UserControl mainGridContent;
private string myString;
public UserControl MainGridContent
{
get { return this.mainGridContent; }
set
{
this.mainGridContent = value;
NotifyOfPropertyChange(() => this.MainGridContent);
}
}
public string MyString
{
get { return this.myString; }
set
{
this.myString = value;
NotifyOfPropertyChange(() => this.MyString);
}
}
public void ChangeDisplay()
{
this.MainGridContent = new ChangeDisplayView();
this.MyString = "Testing....";
}
}
The changeDisplayViewModel:
public class changeDisplayViewModel: PropertyChangedBase
{
}
The changeDisplayView:
<UserControl x:Class="CMDemo.Views.changeDisplayView"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300">
<Grid>
<TextBox content="Hello Caliburn Micro">
</Grid>
When I click the "Click Me" button the TextBlock "MyString" is updated and showing, but the usercontrol is not. What am I doing wrong?
