How can I create and use a GridLengthConverter Object ?
The following example shows how to create and use an ‘instance’ of the GridLengthConverter object. The example defines a custom method called ‘changeCol()’, which passes the ListBoxItem to a GridLengthConverter that converts the Content of a ListBoxItem to an instance of GridLength. The converted value is then passed back as the value of the ‘Width’ property of the ColumnDefinition element. [C#] public void changeColVal(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { txt1.Text = ‘Current Grid Column is ‘ + hs1.Value.ToString(); } public void changeCol(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs args) { ListBoxItem li = ((sender as ListBox).SelectedItem as ListBoxItem); GridLengthConverter myGridLengthConverter = new GridLengthConverter(); if (hs1.Value == 0) { GridLength gl1 = (GridLength)myGridLengthConverter.ConvertFromString(li.Content.ToString()); col1.Width = gl1; } else if (hs1.Value == 1) { GridLength gl2 = (GridLength)myGridLengthConverter.ConvertFromString(li.Content.ToString()); col2.Width = gl2; } else if (hs1.Value == 2) { GridLength gl3 = (GridLength)myGridLengthConverter.ConvertFromString(li.Content.ToString()); col3.Width = gl3; } }
