Problem:
I was trying to hide and expose information in xaml form. The Address should not display if it is empty.
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Address}" />
Solution:
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Address}"
Visibility="{Binding Path=Address, Converter={StaticResource StringLengthVisibilityConverter}" />
Create helper class and reference in the xaml.
public class StringLengthVisiblityConverter: IValueConverter
{
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
if (value == null || value.ToString().Length == 0)
{
return Visibility.Collapsed;
}
else
{
return Visibility.Visible;
}
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
// Don't need to implement this
}
}
