Question

I have a list view item which has a button and displays properties on an object. I have the command property set up for the button using the mvvm pattern which fires correctly.

My issues is that when a press the button it does not also get the selected item, I am guessing that it has not fired the selectedItem event.

Is it possible to force this event when the button is pressed?

 <Button 
         Height="20"
         Width="20"
         Grid.Column="3"
         Grid.Row="0"
         Command="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type Window}}, Path=DataContext.RemoveClick}"
         CommandParameter="{Binding SelectedItem, ElementName=serverListView, Mode=TwoWay}">

You may :
– set the commandParameter of your command to {Binding}
– Bind the SelectedItem to some Property of your VM
– Set this property to the command parameter in the begining of your command execute method
