Answer 4

If you run the application in the debugger what error do you get and where?

If you'd like somebody to look at a minimal repro sample (not your full app) then please post it as a zip file (Windows does not include 7z support) and share a link in your SkyDrive.

You didn't give repro steps so I'm not sure if you're looking at the same thing I am. The exception I see in your code is not related to touch and should reproduce anywhere.

In your itemGridView_ItemClick_1 method you create a new button named Header and immediately check its Tag, but since the Header button wasn't initialized with any data the Tag is null and you get a NullReferenceException when you call ToString() on it.

The other problem you have is that you try to set the Tag on the GridView itself, not on the items within the GridView. There isn't an item at that level to bind to, so the Tag on the ItemClick's sender is null and will still give the same error.

I think what you want is to detect the group that is clicked on. You can find this by looking at e.ClickedItem, casting it to your HubPageDataItem, and checking its UniqueId there:

            HubPageDataItem ci = e.ClickedItem as HubPageDataItem;
            Debug.Assert(ci != null,"Item clicked must be a HubPageDataItem");
            string group = ci.Group.UniqueId;
