Examples
The following example gets the SelectedItem from a ListBox.
void PrintText(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs args)
{
ListBoxItem lbi = ((sender as ListBox).SelectedItem as ListBoxItem);
tb.Text = " You selected " + lbi.Content.ToString() + ".";
}
Private Sub PrintText(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As SelectionChangedEventArgs)
Dim lbsender As ListBox
Dim li As ListBoxItem
lbsender = CType(sender, ListBox)
li = CType(lbsender.SelectedItem, ListBoxItem)
tb.Text = " You selected " & li.Content.ToString & "."
End Sub
Remarks
If a Selector supports selecting a single item, the SelectedItem property returns the selected item. If a Selector supports multiple selections, SelectedItem returns the item that the user selected first.
Setting SelectedItem in a Selector that supports multiple selections clears existing selected items and sets the selection to the item specified.
