how to dynamically navigate to a Wizard's next page

created 8 years ago

[DevExpress Support Team: CLONED FROM T446777: wizard control - WPF]
Hi Alex,

I am having issues with getting the WizardPage.NextPage to work. When I pass in a view model, nothing happens, and the wizard just calls the ToString().

I was looking at the example and it's quite different from mine. In the example, they bind a list of the same exact view model to item source. My situation is different because I have different types (classes).
I need to understand how to dynamically navigate to a next page. How does the wizard know which view to display if I only pass the view model.

can you please provide an example. Feel free to use the sample project I sent you.

Thanks,

Hello,

In the example you provided, there is no any view model, so I have modified the How to: Create a wizard based on a collection of view models example to show how to control what page should be shown in Wizard at the view model level. In case you have different views and view models for your pages, use the Wizard.ItemTemplateSelector to select a required view for each page.
We look forward to your feedback once you have had the opportunity to review the sample project.

Thanks,
Andrey

      Hello Rem,

      Here are my comments regarding the project.

      1. Handle the OnSelectedItemChanged event to define the SelectedItem property in the view model.
      C#
      protected void OnSelectedItemChanged()  
{  
    if (SelectedItem == "Simulator")  
    {  
        NextWizardPage = "page1";  
    }  
    else  
    {  
        NextWizardPage = "page2";  
    }  
}

      2) Add two WizardPage controls to the Wizard control to define wizard pages with different content.

      XAML
      <dxco:WizardPage Name="page1" >  
    <pages:RobotConfiguration/>  
</dxco:WizardPage>  
<dxco:WizardPage Name="page2" >  
    <pages:RobotConfiguration2/>  
</dxco:WizardPage>

      Thanks,
      Elliot
