Inverted convertion

Inverted convertion with IsInverted property

<UserControl xmlns:conversion="clr-namespace:MyNamespace.Conversion">

    <UserControl.Resources>
        <conversion:ListToVisibilityConverter x:Key="EmptyListToCollapsedConverter" />
        <conversion:ListToVisibilityConverter x:Key="EmptyListToVisibleConverter"
                                              IsInverted="true" />
    </UserControl.Resources>

    <TextBlock Visibility="{Binding MyList, Converter={StaticResource EmptyListToCollapsedConverter}}" />
    <TextBlock Visibility="{Binding MyList, Converter={StaticResource EmptyListToVisibleConverter}}" />

ListToVisibilityConverter.cs

namespace MyNamespace.Conversion
{
    [ValueConversion(typeof(IEnumerable), typeof(Visibility))]
    public class ListToVisibilityConverter : IValueConverter
    {
        public bool IsInverted { get; set; }

        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            var visibleFlag = false;
            if (value is IEnumerable itemCollection)
            {
                visibleFlag = itemCollection.Cast<object>().Any();
            }

            }

            return visibleFlag ? Visibility.Visible : Visibility.Collapsed;

        // Conversion inverse non-implémentée
        public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetTypes, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
}

Inverted convertion with ConverterParameter

The ConverterParameter property can not be bound because it is not a dependency property.
Use MultiValueConverter as an alternative.

<TextBlock Visibility="{Binding MyList, Converter={StaticResource ListToVisibilityConverter}, ConverterParameter=Inverted}" />

ListToVisibilityConverter.cs

[ValueConversion(typeof(IEnumerable), typeof(Visibility))]
public class ListToVisibilityConverter : IValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        var visibleFlag = false;
        if (value is IEnumerable itemCollection)
        {
            visibleFlag = itemCollection.Cast<object>().Any();
        }
        else
        {
            return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;
        }

        if (parameter != null && Enum.TryParse(parameter.ToString(), true, out Parameters invert) && invert == Parameters.Inverted)
        {
            visibleFlag = !visibleFlag;
        }

        return visibleFlag ? Visibility.Visible : Visibility.Collapsed;
    }

    // Conversion inverse non-implémentée
    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetTypes, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }

    private enum Parameters
    {
        Normal,
        Inverted
    }

MultiValueConverter

<UserControl xmlns:conversion="clr-namespace:MyNamespace.Conversion">

            </MultiBinding>
        </ItemsControl.ItemsSource>
    </ItemsControl>

namespace MyNamespace.Conversion
{
    // L'attribut ValueConversion n'est pas utilisé ici car il n'est pas adapté
    // au MultiValueConverter : il ne peut définir qu'un seul type d'entrée
    public class TakeItemsConverter : IMultiValueConverter
    {
        public object Convert(object[] values, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            // expect 2 values, an IEnumerable and an int
            if (values != null
                && values.Length == 2
                && values[0] is IEnumerable itemCollection
                && values[1] != null
                && int.TryParse(values[1].ToString(), NumberStyles.Integer, culture, out var numberOfItemsToTake))
            {
                return itemCollection.Cast<object>().Take(numberOfItemsToTake);
            }

            return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;
        }

        // Conversion inverse non-implémentée
        public object[] ConvertBack(object value, Type[] targetTypes, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
