You may want to use a Slider control to let a user select from a set of values specified by an enumerated type. For example, you could let users select a day of the week from the DayOfWeek enumerated type.
Here's one way to do that. In XAML, define Slider and TextBlock that uses a value converter to display the day.
<Window.Resources>
<local:DayOfWeekEnumToStringValueConverter x:Key="dayOfWeekEnumToStringConverter"/>
</Window.Resources>
<StackPanel>
<Slider Name="mySlider" Margin="10"
Minimum="0"
IsSnapToTickEnabled="True"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Value, ElementName=mySlider, Converter={StaticResource dayOfWeekEnumToStringConverter}}"
Margin="10"/>
</StackPanel>
public class DayOfWeekEnumToStringValueConverter : IValueConverter
{
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
DayOfWeek day = (DayOfWeek)((double)value);
return day.ToString();
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
