Different item template for each item in a WPF List?
the ItemTemplateSelector will work but I think it is easier to create multiple DataTemplates in your resource section and then just giving each one a DataType. This will automatically then use this DataTemplate if the items generator detects the matching data type?
<DataTemplate DataType={x:Type local:ObjectA}> ...</DataTemplate>Also make sure that you have no x:Key set for the DataTemplate.

Have a look at the ItemTemplateSelector property of your list control. You can point it to a custom TemplateSelector and decide which template to use in code.
Here's a blog post describing TemplateSelectors:
