Windowscommunitytoolkit: MasterDetail view - add buttons to the bottom of the left-hand list

[GrantMeStrength]

With many apps, that use the MasterDetail pattern, there is a bar of controls at the top or bottom of the listview that allows items to be (for example) deleted or added. However, I cannot work out how to add any other controls within the toolkit's MasterDetail implementation. I can only add a CommandBar that sits under the entire M/D view, and as the CommandBar buttons all align right, it doesn't work. Is there a way to insert some buttons under the list view? thanks!

Currently the only way to do this would be by restyling the control.
I think adding a MasterCommandBar and DetailsCommandBar makes sense.

Could be great addition to the existing control

Hello @skendrot, do you think you will be able to tackle it for 1.4 ?

[skendrot]

Yea, I should be able to get it in for 1.4

thanks a lot!

I have a good working version of this. Will push this weekend

is it also possible that commandbar (master/detail) doesn't matter can be put on top of the list or item?

[skendrot]

The command bar is at the bottom by default but can be placed at the top by restyling the control

thanks @skendrot , how can i retrieve the default style of the control so i can make a restyled version?

Hey @MannusEtten, you can copy the style from here into your App.xaml and make changes as you see fit

Apparently, CommandBar has been implemented, but how do you use it?
