I recently had to switch to a new computer, from win 7 to win 10, and after I installed everything, I loaded my project, rebuilt it, and it all works fine(so far) except the RadDiagram control will not display. What could I be doing/not doing that would cause this.

Hi Sam,
The possible reason behind this could be the referenced assemblies. Can you double check if the referenced DLLs are NoXAML or XAML? If you are using NoXAML and not merged the required dictionaries the RadDiagram control will not appear. You can read more about this in the Setting a Theme help article. The required dictionaries from the RadDiagram control are listed in the Getting Started help article.

Thank you for this. I will look into it ASAP, unfortunately I must work on other projects for a time. I will post back either way after I get back to this project. I suspect what you posted is the answer and am looking forward to fixing this. Again, thank you.

I am using the VisualStudio2013 theme. I have a reference to the theme DLL. Everything else in the app is themed ok. My App.XAML contains:
<Application.Resources> <ResourceDictionary> <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/System.Windows.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Data.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Docking.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Input.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.FixedDocumentViewers.xaml"/> <ResourceDictionary Source="/Telerik.Windows.Themes.VisualStudio2013;component/Themes/Telerik.Windows.Controls.FixedDocumentViewersUI.xaml"/> </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries> </ResourceDictionary> </Application.Resources>0

Hello Sam,
Looking at the provided code snippet, the RadDiagram dictionaries are not merged. Can you merge the diagram assemblies and check again if the control appears in your main application?

By adding the missing XAMLs I was able to get the RadDiagram to appear. However, I could not get the shapes to appear. My shapes are all derived from a class called DiagramItem : RadDiagramShape. When I added shapes directly they appeared just fine. I created a second class ShapeTest : RadDiagramShape with nothing but a constructor and had the same issue. I converted the project to use Themes from StyleManager and all my issues with diagramming went away.

Thank you very much for your prompt assistance in resolving this.

Hi Sam,
From your last reply, I can see that you have a custom class which derives from RadDiagramShape. The newly created custom control (ShapeTest ) will not receive automatically the RadDiagramShape style. To workaround this you can create a custom style which targets your ShapeTest and set the BasedOn property of this style to "telerik:RadDiagramShapeStyle".
Give this a try and let me know if it works for you.
