What is the current behavior?
Currently, at runtime when debugging, while using
MenuItem, the following error is seen in the Output Window:Issue Number: Fixes #1341
What is the new behavior?
The binding has been corrected to use
{TemplateBinding}instead of the{Binding}with the path specified incorrectly for attached properties.The previous template had these bindings:
Width="{Binding Width, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type MenuItem}}}" Height="{Binding Height, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type MenuItem}}}" Text="{Binding AutomationProperties.Name, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type MenuItem}}}"Firstly, the
{Binding Path}syntax for attached properties would have beenPath=(Automation.Text), with parenthesis.Secondly, a more efficient
RelativeSourcewould have been{RelativeSource TemplatedParent}.Finally, switching to a
{TemplateBinding}is the most efficient binding, and it uses simplerPathsyntax.The new template changes these bindings as follows:
Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Height="{TemplateBinding Height}" Text="{TemplateBinding AutomationProperties.Name}"Other information
{Binding}withRelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}is only appropriate in the case when the non-typical binding properties are needed, such asMode=TwoWay. The impliedModefor{TemplateBinding}is 'Mode=OneWay`.I verified that there were no other such
XAMLerrors in the commit e55d7d7 from @Difegue that introduced this bug.
