How to UWP Print ListView ItemTemplate

I'm trying to figure out how to print a ListView ItemTemplate using the uwp PrintHelper.cs sample. Everything works, except the print preview does not display items added to the ListView at runtime. I can add other controls such as a textbox, and the print preview will show it, so there must be something peculiar with printing databound ListView items at runtime, but I cannot find any information about it.
<ListView x:Name="ClipboardList"
xmlns:m="using:QuickieEdit.Models"
ItemsSource="{x:Bind ViewModel.MemoryItems}">
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate x:DataType="m:MemoryItem">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<Button x:Name="MemoryCopyBtn"
Content="Copy"
Click="How to Copy currently selected
MemoryListItem.Text?"/>
<TextBox x:Name="MemoryListItem"
Text="{x:Bind Memory, Mode=TwoWay}">
</TextBox>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>

I cannot understand your exact query, but I think you may be facing situation where your ListView does not get updated with the model and hence does not show up while printing. You can use
ObservableCollection<Model> instead of List<Model>
This will solve your problem or if it does not please provide the c# code in detail as well

stackpanel with usercontrol and itemsource shows newitemplaceholder

Im about to create a diagram designer, and have create nodes and edges as usercontrols.
I have an stackpanel where I want to place them. I have managed to make it works with the following code:
<Window.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type Model:Node}">
<Canvas>
<View:NodeUserControl></View:NodeUserControl>
</Canvas>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<StackPanel Name="DisplayArea">
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding Nodes}" >
</ItemsControl>
</StackPanel>
Where Nodes is an observablecollection
But this also shows an {NewItemPlaceholder} text and I can't figure out why. Would really appreciate if someone could point out my mistake.
EDIT: I have tried to create a new solution with just the beforementioned code and this doenst show the [NewItemPlaceholder}. Now Im really confused can't see the difference and what else that would cause this.

I got the same issue and the cause was that die source data was bound twice: One time to a DataGrid control and a second bound to an ItemsControl. The ItemsControl shows its items on a canvas and also {NewItemPlaceholder} becomes visible there.
The solution was to avoid adding new items to the DataGrid by:
ok. I didn't need adding.

ListBox of anonymous UIElements

I want to create a ListBox and fill it with anonymous UIElement. In other words, the DataTemplate of the ItemTemplate will contain only one element, and afterwords during the runtime, afterwards I will create in the code behind different UIElements (TextBlocks, Grids ...) and populate the list with it.
So how am I going to write the DataTemplate of the ListBox? And how am I intend to use an ObservableCollection for the ItemSource? So should use an ObsevableCollection of UIElement?

First Question: No DataTemplate. Since your items are already UIElements, you don't need a DataTemplate.
And if you're creating a changeable collection, then yes, ObservableCollection<UIElement> is the way to go.
Now, why would you be doing this? You may want to ask yourself if this is the best way of doing things. Why isn't your data and your presentation separated? If you need more than one type of element in the list, will DataTemplateSelector allow you to have a real ViewModel?

<ListBox x:Name="name" ItemsSource="{Binding source}">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<textbox x:Name="name"></ToggleButton> //or any tool
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

how to add two different controls (checkbox and combobox) as list item in ListBox wpf

I need to bind the listbox with list of items retreived from database. Each list item is displayed as checkbox in listbox.
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<HierarchicalDataTemplate>
<CheckBox Content="{Binding Name}" IsChecked="{Binding IsChecked}"/>
</HierarchicalDataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
Along with the checkbox, I also need to add a checkbox as a list item.
Could anyone let me know as to how this can be done?

DataTemplateSelector options within WPF this allow a very small amount of backend code to take care of all the selections for you. This allows you to make use of this code from within an MVVM structure without any issues, and while making the front end extremely easy to manage without complicating the back end code.
here is a sample.

Use DataTemplateSelector if you want to use two different visuals as list items.

MVVM binding content control from observablecollection of views

I am attempting to populate a ScrollerViewer control with an arbitrary number of of UserControls (Views) whilst using the MVVM pattern and bindings.
I am using an ObservableCollection to maintain my View collection and I have this collection set as the datacontext for my ScrollViewer control, however, getting the views to appear in the scroll viewer has had me going round in circles for a while now.
Can someone please point me to either a suitable example, or kindly provide an example which demonstrates the functionality I am attempting to achieve here?
Many thanks,

First off, I think you want an ItemsControl, not a ScrollViewer. Once you do that, assuming that your ObservableCollection of viewmodels is called "Items":
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<uc:MyControl DataContext="{Binding}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
Replace the <uc:MyControl DataContext="{Binding}"/> with a reference to your UserControl.
