How to prevent autoselection of first item in GridView on databind?

There is acutally a pretty simple solution. I set the SelectionMode of the GridView to None in the XAML. Then, when the page is created, I change the SelectionMode to Multiple .

My situation is the opposite. I have a GridView that was bind to an ObservableCollection, and I wanted the 1st item to be selected but it was not! I figured out why that was the case though.

There are 2 ways to generate my ObservableCollection and depending on which method I chose, the 1st item is either selected or not.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
