Public Enumeration RelativeSourceMode

public enum RelativeSourceMode

See Remarks

	Member name	Description
	TemplatedParent	Refers to the element to which the template (in which the data-bound element exists) is applied. This is similar to setting a TemplateBinding Markup Extension and is only applicable if the Binding is within a template.
	Self	Refers to the element on which you are setting the binding and allows you to bind one property of that element to another property on the same element.
	FindAncestor	Refers to the ancestor in the parent chain of the data-bound element. You can use this to bind to an ancestor of a specific type or its subclasses. This is the mode you use if you want to specify RelativeSource.AncestorType and/or AncestorLevel.

This class is used by the RelativeSource.Mode property.

For XAML usage of RelativeSourceMode, see RelativeSource Markup Extension.
