    <p>I am trying to build a custom combobox with forward and back buttons I am starting out and I am having trouble with being able to populate the combobox with generic lists. </p> <p>so far I have this:</p> <p>public partial class NavigableComboBox : UserControl, INotifyPropertyChanged {</p> <pre><code>#region Constructor public NavigableComboBox() { InitializeComponent(); } #endregion #region Dependency Properties #region ListSource [System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Usage", "CA2227:CollectionPropertiesShouldBeReadOnly")] public ObservableCollection&lt;object&gt; ListSource { get { return (ObservableCollection&lt;object&gt;)GetValue(ListSourceProperty); } set { base.SetValue(NavigableComboBox.ListSourceProperty, value); NotifyPropertyChanged("ListSource"); } } [System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Usage", "CA2211:NonConstantFieldsShouldNotBeVisible")] public static DependencyProperty ListSourceProperty = DependencyProperty.Register( "ListSource", typeof(ObservableCollection&lt;object&gt;), typeof(NavigableComboBox), new PropertyMetadata(OnValueChanged)); #endregion #region ListSource public object SelectedItem { get { return (object)GetValue(SelectedItemProperty); } set { base.SetValue(NavigableComboBox.SelectedItemProperty, value); NotifyPropertyChanged("SelectedItem"); } } public static DependencyProperty SelectedItemProperty = DependencyProperty.Register( "SelectedItem", typeof(object), typeof(NavigableComboBox), new PropertyMetadata(OnValueChanged)); #endregion #endregion private static void OnValueChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e) { ((NavigableComboBox)d).ListSource = (ObservableCollection&lt;object&gt;)e.NewValue; } public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged; public void NotifyPropertyChanged(string propertyName) { if (PropertyChanged != null) { PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName)); } } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>and this for xaml:</p> <pre><code>&lt;UserControl x:Class="Divestco.WinPics.Components.Common.UserControls.NavigableComboBox" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Divestco.WinPics.Components.Common.UserControls" mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignHeight="55" d:DesignWidth="200"&gt; &lt;Grid&gt; &lt;ComboBox Name="comboBox1" ItemsSource="{Binding ListSource}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedItem}" /&gt; &lt;/Grid&gt; &lt;/UserControl&gt; </code></pre> <p>And I am using it as so on the main form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;UserControls:NavigableComboBox ListSource="{Binding Path=MapModel.GridsInProject}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=MapModel.SelectedGrid}"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>I place break points on the dependency property but they are never hit. When using a regular combobox and not my custom control it is filled with out a problem so I know the main form bindings are correct. I also am not getting any error messages when running </p> <p>Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? or even better does anyone know of a pre made control like this?</p> <p><strong>The control I envision will have a combobox and a next previous button on either side. The user can select an item from the dropdown list or scroll through by pressing next or previous. The control should be able to take any custom collection of objects and allow you to choose the display field. For example I have a collection of grid objects and a collection of horizon objects and I will populate the control with one of them depending on other factors in the app. Both collections have a string property named "Name" that will be the display field.</strong></p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/qkb48.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></p>

    1. COYour breakpoints will not be hit because the setters and getters are not called by the Binding System. BTW what do you mean by a navigable combobox? I think that should probably be a `UserControl` or something. Can you Post a screenshot of what you need?

    2. COAnd you don't put collection properties in a `Selector` which already has an `ItemsSource` collection property.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
