RelativeSource.AncestorType Property

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets or sets the type of ancestor to look for.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Data
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property AncestorType As Type
public Type AncestorType { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Type
The type of ancestor. The default value is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

If the Mode property is not set explicitly, setting the AncestorType or the AncestorLevel property will implicitly lock the Mode property value to FindAncestor.

Examples

The following Silverlight 5 code example demonstrates the use of the AncestorType property. In this example, a ListBox is bound to a collection of Customer objects. Each item in the list box is bound to a single Customer in the collection, and its visual appearance is defined by the ItemTemplate property. Because of the item-to-customer binding, the template can bind the TextBlock.Text property directly to the Customer.Name property without qualification. However, the FontSize property is bound to a property of the page-level data context, which is inaccessible from the Customer object.

For this reason, the FontSize binding uses the RelativeSource markup extension with AncestorType set to UserControl, and a binding path of DataContext.CustomFontSize. This means that the binding uses the nearest UserControl ancestor as the data source, then binds to the CustomFontSize property of the object assigned to the DataContext property. If there were multiple, nested UserControl instances and the template needed to bind to an even higher-level data source, it could specify an AncestorLevel value of 2 or more.
