C# WPF Project - Unable to use RadNotityIcon

[Lenin]

Hi Team,

I'm trying to add a RadNotifyIcon into my telerik wpf project, but it keeps throwing the error  below in xaml file

"the name RadNotifyIcon does not exist in the current namespace".

    <telerik:RadNotifyIcon x:Name="NotifyIcon"
                                       ShowTrayIcon="False"
                                       TrayIconSource="/NotifyIcon;component/Icons/TelerikWPFNotifyIcon.ico"
                                       PopupContentTemplate="{StaticResource NotifyIconPopupContentTemplate}" />

I did follow the below options , but still not working.

1. clean and rebuild project
2. adding reference to the telerik.windows.controls and telerik.windows.controls.navigation
3. deleting obj and bin folder and rebuild project
4. close and open visual studio
5. restart my windows 
6. change build platform to x86 from anycpu and vice versa.

the visual studio version I'm using is Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - Current, Version 17.4.3

Any suggestion will be helpful.

Thanks,

Lenin.

Hello Lenin,

The error message suggests that you are missing some references. Please make sure to add the following references: 

• Telerik.Windows.Controls
• Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Hello Lenin,

If the application builds and runs, the observed behavior can be a design-time error. If this is indeed the case, may I ask if you could give the following article a try?

Resolving Design Time Errors - Telerik UI for WPF

If this does not help, could you try to isolate this behavior in a sample project?
