I have a WPF Image Control in my project that loads from internet (lazy loading), i want to show a initial image in Image Control until main image load. plz help me
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type local:MyData}">
...
<Image Width="50" Height="50" Source="{Binding Path=profile_image_url_https, FallbackValue=profile_image_url_https}" HorizontalAlignment="Left">
...
</DataTemplate>
You might be able to make it work using TargetNullValue
on the binding, only set the image property when it is loaded.
e.g.
<BitmapImage x:Key="DefaultImage" UriSource="Images/Error.ico" />
<Image Source="{Binding TestBitmapImage,
TargetNullValue={StaticResource DefaultImage}}" />
private BitmapImage _TestBitmapImage = null;
public BitmapImage TestBitmapImage
{
get { return _TestBitmapImage; }
set
{
if (_TestBitmapImage != value)
{
_TestBitmapImage = value;
PropertyChanged.Notify(() => this.TestBitmapImage);
}
}
}
private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
var img = new BitmapImage();
img.DownloadCompleted += (s, dcea) =>
{
TestBitmapImage = img;
};
img.BeginInit();
img.UriSource = new Uri("http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/c35af79e54306caedad37141f13de30c?s=128&d=identicon&r=PG");
img.EndInit();
}
