About[edit source]
This article describes how to use <AsString> in ViewModels, instead of the object.asString operator.
Deprecation[edit source]
For all but actions, this logic has been replaced with Databind labels in ViewModels.
Description[edit source]
In many situations, you may want to further detail action names or constraint messages. You can do this by mixing in <AsString> in the presentation or message.
This is described in this article: http://www.capableobjects.com/2013/01/09/action-names/
Note that the <AsString> is used as a pattern to replace and as such, it is case-sensitive.
In Fat-Client WPF, we recently added a way to make the placed Action Buttons in ViewModels bound: <Column:SomeName> in the Presentation of a placed Action button will be interpreted as "Look for ViewModel Column on the same level with name=SomeName" and bind the presentation of the button to this.
