API 3.1 WindowPanel

DaveOrlando — Thu, 26 Sep 2013 17:53:26 GMT

Hello,

I've finally got around to upgrading to API v3.1.

Is there something I should know about regarding the Window Panel? none of my User Controls based off of the WindowPanel will initialize. trying to fix it I opened a blank StandardMapApp and copied the new WindowPanel from there into my old code, but still have probelems.

I have also ensured that the ESRI dll's were readded

Self taught programmer a few years ago so I'm sure its something I did wrong two years ago, but if I'm missing something that I should know about with this new API, please help out.

Dave

maybe i can put this in a more generic way.

forget the 3.1 issue, I'm sure I have this messed up from the start

is there a proper programming procedure in which I can:
1) create my own user control (yes) and
2) utilize the WindowPanel.xaml as its main element

basically I want a bunch of WindowPanels but as their own user control with their own code-behind.

we've done this in the past, but I don't feel like our technique was right and now VS is throwing all sorts of design errors (that it wasn't before) maybe the VS debugger is picking it up now, but it wasn't crucial enough to make it fail before?...
