Specifying a default value when data binding
posted

Hi,

I have a xamMap being bound to a collection of data items for say States. The data only contains data for half the states. What options are there for displaying the caption/tooltip so that if you include the Value or a numeric piece of data that when the data is not present for a particular state it doesn't display NaN i.e. 

ToolTip="{}{Name} ({Value})"

This displays as Alaska (NaN)

Thanks,

Chris

    Hi Chris,

    One way to achieve this is to attach to MapLayer's Imported event and set MapElements' ToolTip explicitly, like in the following code snippet:

    private void MapLayer_Imported(object sender, MapLayerImportEventArgs e)
    {           
     if (e.Action == MapLayerImportAction.End)
     {
      var layer = (MapLayer) sender;
      foreach (var element in layer.Elements)
      {
       if (double.IsNaN(element.Value))
       {
        element.ToolTip = element.Name;
       }
       else
       {
        element.ToolTip = string.Format("{0} ({1})", element.Name, element.Value);
       }
      }
     }
    }

    Regards,
