Databinding combobox selected item to settings
- by Tuukka
I store user specified settings using application settings properties and databinding. It has been working fine, until i want user selected to font for combobox. Databinding between user settings and combobox not working. I want to store font family name.
App.XML
<Application.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<properties:Settings x:Key="Settings" />
</ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>
Window.XML
<ComboBox Name="Families" ItemsSource="{x:Static Fonts.SystemFontFamilies}"
<!-- This line -->
SelectedItem="{Binding Source={StaticResource Settings}, Path=Default.Font, Mode=TwoWay,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"

</ComboBox>
