Question

I’m trying to creat a editable treeview node in WPF. I read this article. But he leaves out the most crucial part as “homework” and gives a hint in form of a now missing picture. It renders his entire blog post useless to me. Otherwise its very good i think.

I have the following treeview template, i left out attributes.

            <HierarchicalDataTemplate>
                <StackPanel>
                    <Image/>
                    <TextBlock/>
                </StackPanel>
            </HierarchicalDataTemplate>

Creating a new DataTemplate

            <DataTemplate x:Key="editableName">
                <TextBox/>
            </DataTemplate>

Using the following Trigger to change the template when a node in the treeview is selected.

<Style TargetType="{x:Type TreeViewItem}">    
 <Style.Triggers>
   <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
       <Setter Property="SOMEPATH!!!" Value="{StaticResource editableName}" />
   </Trigger>
 </Style.Triggers>
</Style>

What is the path i need to insert the data template in the HierarchicalDataTemplate/StackPanel/TextBlock.HeaderTemplate? from this trigger in the TreeViewItem.

Or am i going about this the wrong way?

Thank you very much for any help
