Event and Data Triggers can be combined?

Question

Is it possible to declare a MultiTrigger with an Event and a DataTrigger?

I have a scenario to start a Storyboard which is given in the Event Trigger when a bool Property of Control is set to True.

That why i need to make these two as a MultiTrigger. I know that there is no direct way to do it, but am looking for any workaround..

Any idea on this?

Answer 1

I had an workaround for this..

Creating a property in the Custom control and that to be targeted and changed in the Storyboard.

The property which is targeted previously was bound with this new Property as MultiBuinding and have converter for that. So there i can get both the values, with that i can return the value which required for the base property.

Answer 2

Looking at the MultiTrigger Class page on MSDN, which should have been your first place to search, you can see an example that clearly shows that a MultiTrigger does not contain Triggers... it contains Condition and Setter elements. From the linked page on MSDN:

<MultiTrigger>
    <MultiTrigger.Conditions>
        <Condition Property="HasItems" Value="false" />
        <Condition Property="Width" Value="Auto" />
    </MultiTrigger.Conditions>
    <Setter Property="MinWidth" Value="120"/>
</MultiTrigger>

So no, you cannot combine Triggers inside a MultiTrigger.
