Question

Is it possible to specify the position of the mouse as the value of the Parameter property of a Command in XAML. Something like the following:

<UserControl.ContextMenu>
        <ContextMenu>
            <MenuItem Header="Create Link"
                      Command="{Binding CreateLink}"
                      CommandParameter="{Binding Mouse.Position}" >
            </MenuItem>
        </ContextMenu>
</UserControl.ContextMenu>

In WPF, there is no Mouse.Position. If you look at the Mouse class members, the closest thing is Mouse.GetPosition, which returns the position relative to some UI element.

I would recommend using the UI element itself as the Command Parameter, and having your Command call Mouse.GetPosition to retrieve positioning, if this is required in your DataContext for some reason.
