WPF Multiple CollectionView with different filters on same collection

I'm using a an ObservableCollection with two ICollectionView for different filters.

One is for filtering messages by some type, and one is for counting checked messages. As you can see message filter and message count works OK, but when I'm un-checking the message disappear from the list (the count is still working).

BTW sorry for the long post, I wanted to include all relevant stuff.

The XAML Code:

<!-- Messages List -->
<DockPanel Grid.Row="1"
           Grid.Column="0"
           Grid.ColumnSpan="3"
           Height="500">
  <ListBox Name="listBoxZone"
           ItemsSource="{Binding filteredMessageList}"
           Background="Transparent"
           BorderThickness="0">
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
      <DataTemplate>
        <CheckBox Name="CheckBoxZone"
                  Content="{Binding text}"
                  Tag="{Binding id}"
                  Unchecked="CheckBoxZone_Unchecked"
                  Foreground="WhiteSmoke"
                  Margin="0,5,0,0"
                  IsChecked="{Binding isChecked}" />
      </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
  </ListBox>
</DockPanel>
<Button Content="Test Add New"
        Grid.Column="2"
        Height="25"
        HorizontalAlignment="Left"
        Margin="34,2,0,0"
        Click="button1_Click" />
<Label Content="{Binding checkedMessageList.Count}"
       Grid.Column="2"
       Height="25"
       Margin="147,2,373,0"
       Width="20"
       Foreground="white" />

Code For un-check function

private void CheckBoxZone_Unchecked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    CheckBox chkZone = (CheckBox)sender;
    ucSystemMessageVM.checkedMessageList.Refresh();
}

This answer helped me with this exact problem. The static CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(coll) method will always return the same reference for a given collection, so basing multiple collection views on the same reference will be counterproductive. By instantiating the view as follows:

ICollectionView filteredView = new CollectionViewSource { Source=messageList }.View;

The view can now be filtered/sorted/grouped independently of any others. Then you can apply your filtering.

I know it's been a couple months and you have probably solved your problem by now, but I ran across this question when I had the same problem so I figured I would add an answer.

For anyone struggling with the problem that the filteredView does not observe the sourceCollection (messageList in this example):

I came around with this solution:

ICollectionView filteredView = new CollectionViewSource { Source=messageList }.View;
messageList.CollectionChanged += delegate { filteredView.Refresh(); };

So it will refresh our filteredView evertytime the CollectionChanged event of the source get's fired. Of course you can implement it like this too:

messageList.CollectionChanged += messageList_CollectionChanged;

private void messageList_CollectionChanged(object sender, System.Collections.Specialized.NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
	filteredView.Refresh(); 
}

Consider using PropertyChanged-Events when filtering on a specific Property is wanted.
