Why this works
<myToolTip:UserControl1>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=TestString, RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type myToolTip:UserControl1}}}"/>
</myToolTip:UserControl1>
BUT this does not
<myToolTip:UserControl1 x:Name="userControl">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=TestString, ElementName=userControl}"/>
</myToolTip:UserControl1>
and is there really no shorter (faster) way, to access usercontrols elements?
Here‘s an explanation and work-around.
