Question

I got a simple struct

private struct _config
{
    public string name;
    public int id;
}

I want to add it to a combobox but show name as the displayed name in the combobox. Does anyone know how to do this?

I would highly suggest reading the links HB posted, however here’s the code you’re looking to work towards:

Change your ComboBox items to have get/set accessor methods:

private struct Config
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public int Id { get; set; }
}

Then your ComboBox XAML should look like this

<ComboBox x:Name="MyComboBox" DisplayMemberPath="Name" />
