Re: Programmatically press button ('onClicked') or call 'OnChanged' event

[benp <benp(at)rsp.com.au>]

For buttons, I tend to have (most of, but not exclusively) them calling 
custom commands, usually with a little bit of handling.
I find that my buttons usually do something important enough to warrant 
a command being written to do the actual guts of their job.

Maybe you'd find it useful to do the same for your _OnChanged events?
