I\'m trying to change the icon of my TreeView in a folder icon. Also when it collapses it needs to have an opened folder icon.
My treeview has databound items in it and
Incidentally i did something like this just a few days ago. In my application a folder icon is added in the HierarchicalDataTemplate to those objects which behave like folders, i use a trigger to change the icon based on whether the item is expanded or not, here's the relevant bit of XAML:
<HierarchicalDataTemplate DataType="{x:Type data:FeedComposite}"
ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Children}">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="1">
<StackPanel.Children>
<Image>
<Image.Style>
<Style BasedOn="{StaticResource IconImageStyleSmall}" TargetType="Image">
<Setter Property="Source" Value="{Binding Source={StaticResource Icon_FolderClosed}, Mode=OneTime}"/>
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=TreeViewItem}, Path=IsExpanded}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="Source" Value="{Binding Source={StaticResource Icon_FolderOpen}, Mode=OneTime}"/>
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</Image.Style>
</Image>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}"/>
</StackPanel.Children>
</StackPanel>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
Where {StaticResource Icon_FolderOpen}
and {StaticResource Icon_FolderClosed}
are BitmapImages
that hold the icons for the folder states. IconImageStyleSmall
is a style which sets the MaxWidth
and MaxHeight
of the images to something appropriate.
Edit: For completion's sake.
<BitmapImage x:Key="Icon_FolderOpen" UriSource="pack://application:,,,/ImageResources/Icons/FolderOpen.ico" />
<BitmapImage x:Key="Icon_FolderClosed" UriSource="pack://application:,,,/ImageResources/Icons/FolderClosed.ico" />
<Style x:Key="IconImageStyleSmall" TargetType="Image">
<Setter Property="MaxWidth" Value="16"/>
<Setter Property="MaxHeight" Value="16"/>
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="1"/>
</Style>
