I have a WPF UserControl (bound to a ViewModel) which has elements such as a textbox and a button. Once the button is pressed, the UserControl is no longer needed.

The ViewModel has no knowledge of the UserControl’s parent (which itself is a Grid on a UserControl).

<UserControl x:Class="Example.UserControlExample"
             xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
             xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" 
             xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008">
    <Grid>
        <Button Command="{Binding ButtonClickDoStuff}"/>
    </Grid>
</UserControl>

I know I can hide the UserControl, but I don’t need to use it again so would prefer to remove than hide.

• How do I get the View to remove itself from the parent?
• Is there a property on the View that I can bind to?

I have read these Q&As but all the answers are using C# (presumably in the code behind):

• Causing a UserControl to remove itself (WPF)
• How can I remove a parents child control through the child in WPF/XAML?
• Disconnecting an element from any/unspecified parent container in WPF
