Capturing selection change / click inside WPF ListView / MVVM

Question

Hi, I am trying to get the selection change inside a WPF ListView using Interaction.Triggers. I have only included just the basic XAML for now. But I am getting error in XAML as well as in code.

XAML : The name interaction does not exist in namepace ......interactivity
build: error MC3074: The tag 'Interaction.Triggers' does not exist in XML namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactivity'.

Below is the code in XAML

 xmlns:i="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactivity"
....
...


<ListView x:Name="lstItems" Grid.Row="3" FontSize="15"  ItemsSource="{Binding Path=TaskList}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=SelectedTask}" Foreground="DarkGreen" >
            <i:Interaction.Triggers>
                <i:EventTrigger EventName="MouseLeftButtonUp">
                    <!--
                    <i:InvokeCommandAction 
                            Command="{Binding DataContext.SelectItemRelayCommand, 
                                RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, 
                                        AncestorType={x:Type ItemsControl}}}"
                            CommandParameter="{Binding Id}">
                    </i:InvokeCommandAction>
                    -->
                </i:EventTrigger>
            </i:Interaction.Triggers>
 </ListView>

Could someone please help?

Answer 1

Since you have bound the SelectedItem I am not sure what you are going to accomplish. This variable will change upon each selection.

Answer 2

You can add Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.Wpf in your project Nuget instead of adding dlls in the References

Step 1 : Right click your project and select Manage Nuget packages.. in the popup window.

Step 2: Search and install Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.Wpf.

Step 3: Replace xmlns:i="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/2010/interactivity" with xmlns:i="http://schemas.microsoft.com/xaml/behaviors"
