Toolbox items not visible

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed the beta version of WPF (version 1.0.0.32906). However, when I try to install the components in the toolbox it does not show up.
It does show up when I select 'Show All' in the toolbox, but in that case the items are deactivated (gray) and cannot be chosen. I tried via drag-drop from explorer as well as chosing the dll from the built-in browser.

I use visual studio 2008 Team System (trial).

Any thoughts?

Hi,

Try the following:

- create a WPF application
- right click the toolbox while a WPF window is opened in the designer
- select Choose Items
- click the WPF Components tab
- click Browse
- select the diagramming.wpf.dll

At this point you should see the Diagram icon in your VS toolbox. On some systems you cannot drop the Diagram into the page until you manually add a diagramming.wpf.dll reference to the project. If that happens on yours, use the Solution Explorer/References/Add Reference command to do so and try dragging the Diagram icon again.

I hope that helps,
Stoyan

Ah yes, it works now Smiley

The problem was that I clicked 'Browse' while I was still in the '.NET Framework Components' tab. This included things like'GridLAyout, LayeredLayout, SpringLayout, etc. to the toolbox .. which are not WPF controls, and thus not selectable. Silly me ..

By browsing in the WPF Components tab, it gave me the right class (Diagram) and I'm able to drag/drop it now. Thanks!
