ListBox multiple items selection

JoannaLaroussi — Fri, 08 May 2015 19:50:37 GMT

I have two-step query: query 1 selects all routes for given school and displays route numbers in a ListBox. Query 2 allows for selecting
one of routes from a ListBox. I am wondering how to select more than one route from a ListBox.

So here is my ListBox:

</StackPanel>

private void selectedRoute_SelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

if (RoutesFound.SelectedIndex != -1)

{

_strSelectedRoute = RoutesFound.SelectedValue.ToString();

}

_listSelectedRoutes.Add(_strSelectedRoute);

}

where I added SelectionMode ="Extended" with a hope that it will allow me for multiple selection, but this did not happen.

I also tried to use SelectionMode ="Multiple", but without luck.

Does anybody can suggest how to select multiple items from aListBox and capture them in a list?

code behind

ListBox listBox1 = new ListBox();

listBox1.Items.Add("schools");

Thank you for your response, but I do not see it how this can help me.

I would like to capture selected items from XAML, and I do not need to add more items in C#.

Right now this line

_strSelectedRoute = RoutesFound.SelectedValue.ToString();

captures a single selection, but I need to be able to capture multiple selection.

You can use the SelectedItems property which returns the list of selected items.
