MVVM and Databinding with UniformGrid

Question

I\'m trying to style the back of a WPF chart with some rectangles. I\'m using MVVM, and I need the rectangles to be uniformly sized. When defined via Xaml, this works with a fix

Answer 1

You could use ItemsControl to Bind like this. Simple example where ItemsSource is just an ObservableCollection

Update
It works for my usage scenario, but I might be missing something here. Here's the full code I've tried. I get the same result from both

MainWindow.xaml

MainWindow.xaml.cs

public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        BrushConverter brushConverter = new BrushConverter();
        MyBrushes = new ObservableCollection();
        MyBrushes.Add(brushConverter.ConvertFrom("#22ADD8E6") as Brush);
        MyBrushes.Add(brushConverter.ConvertFrom("#22D3D3D3") as Brush);
        MyBrushes.Add(brushConverter.ConvertFrom("#22ADD8E6") as Brush);
        MyBrushes.Add(brushConverter.ConvertFrom("#22D3D3D3") as Brush);
        this.DataContext = this;
    }

    public ObservableCollection MyBrushes
    {
        get;
        set;
    }
}
