CommunityToolkit DataGrid DataGridComboBoxColumn Value - Display Member Issue

[esobrino]

Given a ContentList that has:

• Description
• IdentifierId
• ... (other properties not needed here)

The DataGrid ItemsSource bounded class we have:

• ContentIdentifierId
• ... (other properties not needed here)

            <tk:DataGridComboBoxColumn ItemsSource="{x:Bind ContentList, Mode=OneWay}" 
                                       Header="Topic" DisplayMemberPath="Description"
                                       Binding="{Binding ContentIdentifierId}" />

It looks like the only way to make this work is that the ContentList items and the Grid's ItemsSource have a property with the same name. What are the alternatives when they don't. I had work with other data-grids in WPF and there is always a way to setup what is sometimes called "ValueMemberPath", I spend time looking for answers without success.

Can someone provide some alternatives to solve this issue? help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the report. Is this behavior you're observing also present when running on UWP or WinAppSDK (the .UWP or .Windows project in the uno project template) on Windows?

Sorry, forgot to provide that detail... I am using the CommunityToolkit.WinUI.UI.Controls...

Thanks. This may be a good question to ask here then: https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/WindowsCommunityToolkit/discussions, as it's the home for the DataGrid control.
