Q1 2011 Issues

[Lee]

I've downloaded and installed the Q1 2011 version of the Telerik Silverlight controls and I'm experiencing some errors when I try to drag controls from the toolbox to the design form.

I'm attaching a couple of screen shots that show the error messages.

The error doesn't seem to happen with all controls, but I'm seeing it with RadOutlookBar, RadScheduler, and RadGauge, to name a few.

Any ideas?

I've found a way to reproduce this issue.  Here are the steps that I followed to reproduce this issue:

1.  Open VS2010
2.  Create a new Silverlight Web Application (Target SL 4)
3.  In the Project Configuration Wizard, select only the Telerik.Windows.Controls
4.  Attempt to drag a RadGauge from the Toolbox onto the MainPage.xaml design form.
5.  Error should display
6.  In the Solution Explorer, add a reference to the Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge (version 2011.1.315.1040)
7,  Attempt to drag a RadGauge from the Toolbox onto the MainPage.xaml design form
8.  Error should still display.
9.  Build the project
10. Attempt to drag the RadGauge from the Toolbox onto the MainPage.xaml design form
11. It should work this time without any error messages

Hello Lee Weisenberger,

We will investigate this issue however at the current time I am not able to provide you a workaround.
Does the other controls work after rebuild?

Thank you for the feedback.

Best wishes,

All of the controls seemed to work fine after I manually added the references to the project and rebuilt.

Just out of curiosity, where you able to reproduce the issue on your end?

Thanks

Hi,

Adding controls that are from assemblies which are not included in the project throws errors. I managed to reproduce the error easily.

We will try to fix this issue for the service pack.

I just installed Q1 2011 SP1 and I'm still having problems dragging new controls to XAML if the assemblies haven't already been added to the project.

Was this actually fixed in the service pack?

Hello,

We have done some design time improvements for some of our controls but we have not yet fixed the issue. For now please just add the required assembly references.
