Select ListViewItem when child has UWP focus

Question

I am writing a universal application for Windows, and I have a ListView where in ListViewItems there is a TextBox and a button. When I click in the text box, I would like the ListViewItem to become the selected one. I found solutions for WPF, but Style.Triggers is not available in UWP. Can someone point me to the correct way to do this?

In the AutoSuggestBox data template, you must set the selected item in the DirectionEntryList to a list item that is an AutoSuggestBox child.

Answer 1

Code for Decision

What you can do is sign up for an event AutoSuggestBox GotFocus.

<AutoSuggestBox x:Name="autoSuggestBox" GotFocus="autoSuggestBox_GotFocus" />

ListView.ContainerFromItem ListViewItem IsSelected true.

private void autoSuggestBox_GotFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    var item = ((AutoSuggestBox)sender).DataContext;
    var container = (ListViewItem)DirectionEntryList.ContainerFromItem(item);

    container.IsSelected = true;
}

, Behavior.

-, SDK (XAML) ( 12.0 ) > Universal Windows > Extensions.

, DirectionEntryList GotFocus , .

public class SelectListViewItemWhenElementGotFocusBehavior : DependencyObject, IBehavior
{
    private UIElement _element;

    public DependencyObject AssociatedObject { get; set; }

    #region ListView reference

    public ListView ListView
    {
        get { return (ListView)GetValue(ListViewProperty); }
        set { SetValue(ListViewProperty, value); }
    }

    public static readonly DependencyProperty ListViewProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("ListView", typeof(ListView), typeof(SelectListViewItemWhenElementGotFocusBehavior), new PropertyMetadata(null));

    #endregion

    public void Attach(DependencyObject associatedObject)
    {
       AssociatedObject = associatedObject;
        _element = this.AssociatedObject as UIElement;

        if (_element != null)
        {
            _element.GotFocus += OnElementGotFocus;
        }
    }

    private void OnElementGotFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        var item = ((AutoSuggestBox)sender).DataContext;
        var container = (ListViewItem)ListView.ContainerFromItem(item);

        container.IsSelected = true;
    }

    public void Detach()
    {
        if (_element != null)
        {
            _element.GotFocus += OnElementGotFocus;
        }
    }
}

, Blend, DataTemplate AutoSuggestBox.

<AutoSuggestBox x:Name="autoSuggestBox">
    <Interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>
        <local:SelectListViewItemWhenElementGotFocusBehavior ListView="{Binding ElementName=DirectionEntryList}" />
    </Interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>
</AutoSuggestBox>
