WPF hover over with unique images - wpf

I want to create a Magic the Gathering trading user interface where if a user hover over a specific card name, that it will display that card's image (see image). Currently, in the MultiMasterCardListView, the only image that displays is the Black Lotus card image which I hard-coded that image path. As a result, it does not matter which card name I hover over, it only shows black lotus image.
So I created a property (PlayerCardPath) inside of MultiMasterCardListViewModel, which will loop through all the cards in the database
and test if the hover over's content/value equals that card name. If it does then return the path with the card's name and image format. The problem is that mc.Name(from MultiMasterCardViewModel) returns nothing so the "if" statement inside of the foreach doesn't get hit at all. How do I get the value of whatever is being hover over from the MultiMasterCardListView? Let me know if you need clarification. Thanks

Change ListBoxItem Background Color when mouse is over on the listBoxItem

I need to set change background color for list item when mouse is over. Here is my code:
<DataTemplate x:Key="ListBoxSubCategoryListTemplate" DataType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
<StackPanel>
<Button x:Name="btnSubCategoryList" Template="{StaticResource subCategoryListItems}"
Content="{Binding Path=sub_category_name}"

<Image x:Name="img" Width="15" Height="15" Source="/ExpressFurnitureSystem;component/Images/edit.png" ToolTip="Click to edit"></Image>
</StackPanel>
</ControlTemplate>
Please help...How??
How about a Trigger such as:
<DataTemplate x:Key="ListBoxSubCategoryListTemplate" DataType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
<StackPanel>
<Button x:Name="btnSubCategoryList" Template="{StaticResource subCategoryListItems}"
Content="{Binding Path=sub_category_name}"
Background="Transparent"
Height="25"/>
</StackPanel>

Accordion control showing item content only after second selection

I have an AccordionControl (WPFToolkit) to which I add items dynamically:
<my:Accordion Grid.Column="1"
ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Tests}"
SelectionMode="ZeroOrOne"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch">
<my:Accordion.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Header}" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</my:Accordion.ItemTemplate>
<my:Accordion.ContentTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ContentPresenter Content="{Binding Content}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</my:Accordion.ContentTemplate>
</my:Accordion>
To actually see the Content, I have to select (open) an AccordionItem, close it and open it again. What could be the reason for this behaviour?
EDIT
I have found a way around this using styles instead, still I would be interested why the above does not work. Here the style solution:
<Style x:Key="itemStyle" TargetType="my:AccordionItem">
<Setter Property="HeaderTemplate">
<Setter.Value>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Header}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<Style x:Key="accordionStyle" TargetType="my:Accordion">
<Setter Property="ItemContainerStyle" Value="{StaticResource itemStyle}" />
<Setter Property="ContentTemplate">
<Setter.Value>
<DataTemplate>
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding MenuItems}">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBox Text="{Binding Path=Text, Mode=OneWay}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</DataTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<my:Accordion Grid.Column="1" Height="Auto"
Name="accordion1"
ExpandDirection="Left"
SelectionMode="One"
ItemsSource="{Binding Tests}"
Style="{StaticResource accordionStyle}">
</my:Accordion>
EDIT
I have now found the problem: I cannot "Stretch the AccordionControl.
<my:Accordion Grid.Column="1" Height="Auto"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
Name="accordion1"
ExpandDirection="Left"
SelectionMode="One"
ItemsSource="{Binding Tests}"
Style="{StaticResource accordionStyle}">
</my:Accordion>
As soon as I do this, it is not working anymore. Does someone know a way around this?

WPF: Groupstyle not working correctly because of Style and/or modified ListBox

I am trying to use a GroupStyle but instead of showing the groupname as a header over the items in the list it only shows the header and not the items.
It works fine until I applied a special style to the list. I then decided this style was pretty bogus so I created a UserControl fro this effect. The problem persists.
The purpose of the UserControl is to have a expending effect on the selected item where normally it could show some info and then more info when expanded.
UserControl:
<UserControl x:Class="MyProject.CustomUC.ExpandingList"

<Border Name="Tail" Visibility="Collapsed" Grid.Row="1" BorderThickness="0,1,0,0" BorderBrush="Blue">

</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</ListBox.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListBox>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
Using the UserControl:
<CustomUC:ExpandingList Collection="{Binding Path=List}">
<CustomUC:ExpandingList.HeadTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DisplayName}" />
</DataTemplate>
</CustomUC:ExpandingList.HeadTemplate>
<CustomUC:ExpandingList.TailTemplate>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type ViewModel:ElementViewModel}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=SomeOtherProperties}" />
</DataTemplate>
</CustomUC:ExpandingList.TailTemplate>
</CustomUC:ExpandingList>
This works if I change from the ExpandingList UserCotnrol:
<ListView ItemsSource="{Binding Path=List}" >
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DisplayName}" />
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
<ListView.GroupStyle>
<GroupStyle HidesIfEmpty="True">
<GroupStyle.HeaderTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</GroupStyle.HeaderTemplate>
</GroupStyle>
</ListView.GroupStyle>
</ListView>
Anyone know what could be wrong?
In the ListBox template, replace:
<StackPanel Margin="2" IsItemsHost="True" />
with
<ItemsPresenter Margin="2" />
The ItemsPresenter class has extra logic for groups, that you lose if you're directly using a panel to display the items.

WPF TreeViewItem Control Template Partially applied?

I know a ControlTemplate is suppose to replace the default one entirely and this seems to work when not using a HierarchicalDataTemplate. However using a HierarchicalDataTemplate my control template seems to be partially used - the TreeViewItem is the control I specified containing an image etc. BUT still appears as a node with the default expander to show its children - not specified in my Template (I want my children to always be shown, but thats beside the point). It looks like this:
<TreeView>
<TreeView.Resources>
<Style x:Key="MyNodeStyle" TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<Setter Property="SnapsToDevicePixels" Value="true" />
<Setter Property="OverridesDefaultStyle" Value="true"/>
<Setter Property="IsExpanded" Value="true"/>
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<Border CornerRadius="8" BorderThickness="1" Padding="2" Margin="4, 6" BorderBrush="{StaticResource itemBorderBrush}" Background="{StaticResource itemBackgroundBrush}" x:Name="border">
<DockPanel LastChildFill="False">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" DockPanel.Dock="Top" Height="80">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DisplayValue}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontWeight="Bold"/>
<Image Source="MyNode.png" Stretch="None"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Notes}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Width="150"/>
</StackPanel>
</DockPanel>
</Border>
<ItemsPresenter />
</StackPanel>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Setter Property="ItemsPanel">
<Setter.Value>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" IsItemsHost="True" HorizontalAlignment="Center" />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate DataType="{x:Type src:MyNode}" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Children}" >
<TreeViewItem Style="{StaticResource MyNodeStyle}"/>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</TreeView.Resources>
<!-- Arrange the root items horizontally. -->
<TreeView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel IsItemsHost="True" Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Center" />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</TreeView.ItemsPanel>
</TreeView>
For some reason only when using a HierarchicalDataTemplate the ItemsPanel and Setter does not seem to be applied and the children are presented in the default expander. How did that expander get there when I am using my own ControlTemplate!?##$
I don't think you should put the TreeViewItem inside your HierarchicalDataTemplate.
Try this:
<HierarchicalDataTemplate DataType="{x:Type src:MyNode}" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Children}" >
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" DockPanel.Dock="Top" Height="80">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=DisplayValue}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontWeight="Bold"/>
<Image Source="MyNode.png" Stretch="None"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Notes}" TextWrapping="Wrap" Width="150"/>
</StackPanel>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
Now, your template becomes:
<ControlTemplate TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<StackPanel Orientation="Vertical" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<Border CornerRadius="8" BorderThickness="1" Padding="2" Margin="4, 6" x:Name="border">
<DockPanel LastChildFill="False">
<ContentPresenter ContentSource="Header" />
</DockPanel>
</Border>
<ItemsPresenter />
</StackPanel>
</ControlTemplate>
Is that how you intended it to look?
Edit: the original expanders are probably there because you only use your style for child items - make your style the ItemContainerStyle for the treeview:
<Window.Resources>
<Style x:Key="MyNodeStyle" TargetType="TreeViewItem">
....
<TreeView ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource MyNodeStyle}">
