DataTrigger Class
namespace Noesis | MSDN
Represents a trigger that applies property values or performs actions when the bound data meets a specified condition.
Style, ControlTemplate, and DataTemplate all have a triggers collection. A DataTrigger allows you to set property values when the property value of the data object matches a specified Value. For example, if you are displaying a list of Employee objects, you may want the foreground color to be different based on each Employee's current attendance. In some scenarios it may be more suitable to create a converter or to use a DataTemplateSelector.

Methods
From DependencyObject
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ClearAnimation | Clears the animation value of a property |
| ClearAnimation | Clears the animation value of a property |
| ClearLocalValue | Clears the local value of a property The property to be cleared is specified by a DependencyProperty identifier |
| CoerceValue | Coerces and validates the effective property value |
| CoerceValue | Coerces and validates the effective property value |
| DependencyPropertyChanged | Returns the PropertyChanged event |
| Destroyed | Destroyed delegate is raised when object is going to be destroyed |
| GetBaseValue | Returns the base value without animation nor coerce (this never returns Expression like GetLocalValue) |
| GetExpression | Gets the expression, if any, used to evaluate the specified property value |
| GetLocalValue | Returns the local value of a dependency property, if it exists |
| GetValue | Returns the current effective value of a dependency property on this instance of a DependencyObject |
| GetValueObject | Returns the current effective value of a dependency property on this instance of a DependencyObject as a boxed value |
| GetValueProvider | Gets the provider that returns the effective value for the specified dependency property |
| HasAnimatedProperties | Returns true if there is any animated property |
| InvalidateProperty | Re-evaluates the effective value for the specified dependency property if necessary If null is passed, a full re-evaluation could be needed |
| IsCached | Returns if the value is stored in the cache. If true, the priority is returned in the provider field |
| IsSealed | Gets a value that indicates whether this instance is currently sealed (read-only) |
| SetAnimation | Sets the animated value of a property |
| SetCurrentValue | Sets the current value of a dependency property. The current value is set on the coerce field, without modifying source or animated value |
| SetCurrentValueObject | Sets the current value of a dependency property using a boxed value |
| SetExpression | Sets the expression to be evaluated dynamically to obtain the value of the property |
| SetValue | Sets the local value of a dependency property |
| SetValueObject | Sets the local value (boxed) of a dependency property |
