StyledProperty Binding with Converter

[pr8x]

    <seqc:MarkerControl Margin="205 0 0 20" 
                        MarkerOffset="{Binding RelativeMarkerOffset, Converter={StaticResource TrackCoordsConverter}}"/>

MarkerOffset is declared as:

 public static readonly StyledProperty<int> MarkerOffsetProperty
            = AvaloniaProperty.Register<MarkerControl, int>(nameof(MarkerOffset));

        public int MarkerOffset
        {
            get => GetValue(MarkerOffsetProperty);
            set => SetValue(MarkerOffsetProperty, value);
        }

Unfortunately, it keeps binding to zero, even if the correct value (515) is displayed in the avalonia debugger. Binding without a Converter and binding to Width works just fine. What am I missing out?

@toytonics if you use something like:

{Binding RelativeMarkerOffset, Converter={x:Static MyConverters.TrackCoordsConverter}}

where MyConverters.TrackCoordsConverter is static property
is it crashing or working?

Hi, haven't tried your suggestion yet. But I think it's pretty weird that the correct value is displayed in the debugger, but is not used as the final value...

What does the * mean here? How do I force it to use the bound value (61,5)?

Edit: Nope, Using x:Static does not solve the issue

Hmm, that is strange. As you say it looks like the binding is producing the correct value, but that's somehow not reflected in the property value. Would you be able to create a minimal repro in a repository or something for me to debug?

Should reproduce this bug.

@toytonics if you convert to a string in your converter it then works here.
