Setting visual state from data-related enumeration in WPF

Hi everyone, I have a script in which I want to switch the visibility of 4 different content controls. In visual states, I set the opacity and crashed based on each given state (see Code.) What I would like to do is a visual state associated with a property of my view model of type Enum. I tried using DataStateBehavior, but it requires true / false, which does not work for me. So I tried DataStateSwitchBehavior, which seems to be completely broken into WPF4 from what I could say. Is there a better way to do this? I am really open to different approaches if necessary, but I really would like to keep this listing in the equation.

Edit:

The code should not be too important, I just need to know if there is a well-known solution to this problem.

You can do this easily by following these steps:

  • Create an event that will be raised when the enum property changes
  • Add a GotToStateAction (Behavior) for each enumeration value (define a value in the Conditions part) to change the Visual State state. When the property is set for the first time, and each time the value changes, the state will be set to the correct state.

More information about GoToStateAction can be found here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/expression/archive/2010/02/22/switching-visual-states-easily-using-gotostateaction.aspx

Use valueconverter (a class that implements IValueConverter) to convert from enumeration to visibility.
