How can I set the text of a WPF Hyperlink via data binding?
This worked for me in a "Page".
<TextBlock>
<Hyperlink NavigateUri="{Binding Path}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Path}" />
</Hyperlink>
</TextBlock>
On Windows Store app (and Windows Phone 8.1 RT app) above example does not work, use HyperlinkButton and bind Content and NavigateUri properties as ususal.
It looks strange, but it works. We do it in about 20 different places in our app. Hyperlink
implicitly constructs a <Run/>
if you put text in its "content", but in .NET 3.5 <Run/>
won't let you bind to it, so you've got to explicitly use a TextBlock
.
<TextBlock>
<Hyperlink Command="local:MyCommands.ViewDetails" CommandParameter="{Binding}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}"/>
</Hyperlink>
</TextBlock>
Update: Note that as of .NET 4.0 the Run.Text property can now be bound:
<Run Text="{Binding Path=Name}" />
