A colleague of mine upgraded his Visual Studio 2013 to Update 4 and now gets the error below thrown from the ArcGIS Runtime Toolkit for .Net.  Others on the team, including myself do not get this error staying at VS Update 3.  We also tested on another VM with update 4 and same error occurs, so we are guessing its something related to Update 4.  Anyone get this issue? Or have any suggestions? Besides reverting to Update 3, he already tried and cannot seem to do that. Error is thrown in ScaleLines.cs GetMile method. Inner Exception: {"Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))"} System.TypeLoadException {"Requested Windows Runtime type 'RuntimeCoreNet.CoreUnit' is not registered.":"RuntimeCoreNet.CoreUnit"} Stack Trace    at System.StubHelpers.StubHelpers.GetWinRTFactoryObject(IntPtr pCPCMD)    at RuntimeCoreNet.CoreUnit.Create(Int32 id)    at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Geometry.Unit.TryCreate(Int32 id)    at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Geometry.Unit.Create(Int32 id)    at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Geometry.LinearUnits.get_Inches()    at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Toolkit.Controls.ScaleLine.GetMile()    at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Toolkit.Controls.ScaleLine.Refresh()    at Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Toolkit.Controls.ScaleLine.OnScalePropertyChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e) ...

In our Windows Store App (not a map centric app) we use the same map (and map control) on several different pages within the application.  This was done for several reasons, including performance, keeping the map state etc. and originally dealing with a memory leak in the map control when loading/unloading/recreating.  We do this by creating one generic map control and keeping it in the application wide state and reusing when necessary. We create the control and initialize it once and then add/remove the control to the xaml tree when navigating to/from a page that requires a map something like this; ContentGrid.Children.Add(App.ArcGISMapCtrl); //ContentGrid is a xaml grid and for removing; ContentGrid.Children.Remove(App.ArcGISMapCtrl); This has been working great for us during all the Beta releases but in this Final release we now get the following behavior; The first time a page is loaded and we create the map everything works fine and as expected.  Any subsequent navigation to the same page or any other page with a map the page loads fine but the map control is frozen.  Everything else works on the page except the map, is just hung or something.  I can see it, but it is not allowing any interaction. I can get the map working on all page loads if I re-create the Map control on every page navigation but this kind of defeats the point since everything has to be re-initialized, as well the maps state is lost and would have to be saved/reloaded each time.  The reusing of the map control has been working great for us as users only see some lag in the first map load, but after that maps are always ready right away and in the same state they left. Was something major changed in the Final release that might affect this?  Any suggestions on what I could try differently? Thanks, Simon ... View more

I want to run some custom JavaScript after the web app has finished loading (ie. map, toolbar are fully loaded).  Is there any event I can subscribe to or something to hook in to be notified that the web app is done loading.  I am looking for something at the app level, not tied to a custom widgets startup.
