Sync two listboxes

I have a layout where there are two listboxes, I was trying to make them sync and found some tutorials on the net like http://www.software-architects.com/TechnicalArticles/ScrollSync/tabid/101/Default.aspx or Listboxes, scrolling in sync but they dont seem to work under WP7 SDK because there are missing events or properties. Does anybody out there solved the problem of syncing two or more listboxes under windows phone 7?

Thanks in advance

Solution

  • I came up with a solution using the WarpPanel available from the Silverlight Toolkit for Wp7

      <ListBox Height="350" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="102,72,0,0" Name="lsScore" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="450" HorizontalContentAlignment="Center">
            <ListBox.ItemsPanel>
                <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                    <toolkit:WrapPanel ItemWidth="220" ItemHeight="50"/>
                </ItemsPanelTemplate>
            </ListBox.ItemsPanel>
        </ListBox>

    This solution uses one listbox which is ofc always on sync and in order to seperate the data and align them I use the ItemWidth thats why it has such a high value. If you know any other way to seperate the data without using the ItemWidth property feel free to add an answer. Thanks in advance.
