    <p>I have a <code>ListBox</code> control bound to an <code>ObservableCollection&lt;ToDoCategory&gt;</code> as <code>ItemsSource="{Binding Categories}</code>. Inside the <code>ToDoCategory</code> there are <code>CategoryName</code> and <code>CategoryColor</code> (both strings). <code>CategoryName</code> is bound inside the <code>ItemTemplate</code>. Now, what I would like to do is to change the color of category selected in the <code>ListBox</code> based on <code>CategoryColor</code>. I already have string to brush <code>IValueConverter</code> which returns <code>SolidColorBrush</code> for string. It is also correctly defined in the page resources. I know I need to change <code>ItemContainerStyle</code>. Currently, I have something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Style x:Key="CategoryListBoxContainerStyle" TargetType="ListBoxItem"&gt; Setter Property="Template"&gt; &lt;Setter.Value&gt; &lt;ControlTemplate TargetType="ListBoxItem"&gt; &lt;Border...&gt; &lt;VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups&gt; &lt;VisualState x:Name="Selected"&gt; &lt;Storyboard&gt; &lt;ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Background" Storyboard.TargetName="InnerGrid"&gt; &lt;DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{Binding CategoryColor, Converter=StringToBrushConverter}"/&gt; &lt;/ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames&gt; &lt;ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames Storyboard.TargetProperty="Foreground" Storyboard.TargetName="ContentPresenter"&gt; &lt;DiscreteObjectKeyFrame KeyTime="0" Value="{StaticResource ListBoxItemSelectedForegroundThemeBrush}"/&gt; &lt;/ObjectAnimationUsingKeyFrames&gt; &lt;/Storyboard&gt; &lt;/VisualState&gt; . . . &lt;/style&gt; </code></pre> <p>This doesn't work. How do I bind the Background of the InnerGrid to <code>CategoryColor</code> from the <code>ToDoCategory</code>?</p>

    1. COIt seems like you should be working with the style or template, not a VisualState.

    2. CO@Rhyous The VisualState is part of ItemContainer template. See the edit!

    3. COSee if you can get the Background of the Selected property to even go to a static color. ListBox uses Style.Resources for forground and background. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7059526/set-background-color-for-selected-items-in-a-listbox

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
