i have a HierarchicalDataTemplate for a TreeViewItem, in the template i have a contextmenu and i want to pass as CommandParameter the ContextMenu parent - i.e the TreeViewItem owner that was right clicked at the moment, is there a way to do that? here is my template:
<HierarchicalDataTemplate
x:Key="ServerTemplate"
DataType="{x:Type models:Server}"
ItemsSource="{Binding Channels}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ChannelTemplate}">
<StackPanel
Tag="{Binding DataContext,RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor,AncestorType={x:Type Window}}}"
Orientation="Horizontal">
<StackPanel.ContextMenu>
<ContextMenu
FontSize="14"
FontFamily="Arial">
<MenuItem
Header="{x:Static p:Resources.ServerOperations_CommunicationSettings}"
Command="{Binding PlacementTarget.Tag.ServerCommunicationSettingCommand, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor,AncestorType={x:Type ContextMenu}}}"
CommandParameter="{Binding Path=Parent, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=Self}}">
</MenuItem>
</ContextMenu>
</StackPanel.ContextMenu>
<Image
Source="{Binding ImageURL, Converter={StaticResource StringToImageConverter}}"
Margin="0,0,2,0"
Height="25"
Width="25"/>
<TextBlock
Text="{Binding ServerName}"
Foreground="White"/>
</StackPanel>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
