How can i specify a designer datacontext for a style, so Resharper finds my properties?
@lhildebrandt's answer is generally right, but in my case this solution produces errors that totally disable displaying the view in designer. Specifying <d:Style.DataContext> inside <Style> tag helped me.
<Style> <d:Style.DataContext> <x:Type Type="local:MyTreeItem" /> </d:Style.DataContext> <!--usual setters, triggers, etc.--></Style>In this way d:DataContext can also be specified for controls, and we can provide it interfaces, nested classes and even generics without any errors:https://stackoverflow.com/a/46637478/5598194
Have you tried:
<Style TargetType="TreeViewItem" d:DataContext="{d:DesignInstance test:TestItemViewModel}">Atleast for me the properties are highlighted and shown with IntelliSense in VS 2015 and R#9.
Seems to be an identical solution to Specify datacontext type on listbox ItemContainer in style
