I have a button in which I want to set the backgroud. For that, I am using a data trigger to check a property in my view model. I want that the change in this property run the trigger. However, I need also the value of another property of the button, but I don't know that trigger will run if this property changes, only I want to run the trigger when changes the property on my viw model.
My axml is this:

my view model and the color depends on if the button is enabled or not. But I only want to run the trigger when "BuscarEstado" is changed. I want this because in this way I only run the converter once, becuase in my view model I set the "IsEnabled" and the "BuscarEstado" but they are related properties, so I don't want to run twice the converter.
When I use a multi value converter I use the properties as parameters, but in the case of data triggers the trigger is run when any of the conditions change.
I would like to use a multi data trigger because is more efficient that a multi value converter, so I prefer to use the multi data trigger, but if the multi data trigger it will be run twice then I am not sure if it is better to use the multidata trigger or the multi value converter.
So how can run the multi value converter when BuscarEstado is changed and set the background property according with the values of BuscarEstado and IsEnabled.
Thank so much.
