I am trying to use WPFToolkit in my user control dll. I inserted the WPFToolkit in its reference, and my user control dll builds with no error.
Then I insert my user control dll into my application, but when my application new an object of my user control dll
MultiROIStats mroi = new MultiROIStats();
the exception occured, saying:
Additional information: Could not load file or assembly 'WPFToolkit, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Here is my user control dll code, the constructor where the error occurs.

I also checked the binary folder of my user control dll, the WPFToolkei.dll is there. So I am confused, and I am wondering how can I correct this error? Thanks.
Have you maybe tried the NuGet package for the toolkit to see if that works instead?

I am relatively new to this platform, so forgive me for my lack of professionalism.
I encountered a problem while creating one of my first WPF applications.
I managed to include some buttons in MainWindow and run it, but I spotted some bugs, so I tried to start from the scratch.
I decided to run an empty window, but then i saw the previous "buggy" window at runtime. Since then, no matter what i change in MainWindow.xaml file i get the same old result.
I tried to chceck whether my program compiles, and for what I know it does.
Unfortunately I erased old xaml code responsible for "buggy" window, but I can recall it was something like this.
<Window x:Class="ProjektPO.MainWindow"

Program compiles and dispalys old "buggy" Window.
I try to make Visual C# app, which is using UserControl (WPF).
By default, VS Community 2015 C# generates UserControl in the same namespace as main program. It's built correctly.
I'd like to separate it in it's own namespace for possible future reuse.
I change auto-generated code to have UserControl in separate namespace.
Here is my code
UserControl
<UserControl x:Class="nsTabI2CMemRW.TabI2CMemRW"

Designer shows error "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object" for line
<UserControl:TabI2CMemRW Margin="0,0,-0.2,278.2"/>
Program compiled fine but first tab (where my UserControl should be) is blank.
There are many things wrong here, cant answer them all. try comenting
((WpfApplication1.MainWindow)Application.Current.MainWindow).InitializeComponent();
and leaving
InitializeComponent();
instead in your C# class
Yes, this ((WpfApplication1.MainWindow)Application.Current.MainWindow).InitializeComponent(); was wrong! Error "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object" relates to this code (Found using VS debugger as in this post WPF, 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' in Designer. I think it's useful for similar cases with WPF).
After commenting-out line (see above) and leaving only InitializeComponent() and recompiling code twice - it works!
Also I've checked that right code-behind file bound to XAML file (Accidentally deleted the code behind for an Xaml file. How do I add the code behind again?).
And also this lines are important xmlns:UserControl="clr-namespace:nsTabI2CMemRW"
and <UserControl:TabI2CMemRW Margin="0,0,-0.2,278.2"/>. I think I can missed them first time. (After xmlns: can be any name, not only UserControl)
Let's say, I create a page MyPage in a WPF application MyApp with Visual Studio 2012 Express.
Very often, when I try to access newly created elements of MyPage.xaml in MyPage.xaml.cs, I get an error message like
The name “group_combobox” does not exist in the current context
This happens even though other elements of the same page / the same context do exist and are available in my C# sharp code editor window.
To give you an example of the problem, see the following MyPage.xaml and MyPage.xaml.cs which are returning the error message, when editing the MyPage.xaml.cs file:
MyPage.xaml
<Page x:Class="MyApp.MyPage"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="768" d:DesignWidth="1024"
Title="MyApp - MyPage" Width="Auto" Height="Auto">
<Button x:Name="MyPage_back_button" Content="Back" Margin="10,100,10,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" FontSize="24" Height="50"/>
<StackPanel Margin="0" x:Name="settings_stackpanel">
<GroupBox Header="Group" VerticalAlignment="Top" FontSize="24" Margin="10" Height="100">
<ComboBox x:Name="group_combobox" Height="62" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="0" BorderBrush="{x:Null}" Background="{x:Null}" VerticalContentAlignment="Center"/>
</GroupBox>
</StackPanel>
</Page>
MyPage.xaml.cs
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Data;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Navigation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
namespace MyApp
{
public partial class MyPage : Page
{
public MyPage()
{
Debug.WriteLine("MyPage");
InitializeComponent();
group_combobox.Items.Clear(); // <-- error: The name “group_combobox” does not exist in the current context
string test = MyPage_back_button.ToString(); // <-- no error
}
}
}
As you can see, the error is only thrown for one of two elements from the same page. I think, there is somehow somewhere described how this "context" looks and what it contains. And at a certain point there is some kind of "synchronization" or something like that.
I noticed this behaviour before, and it solved "magically" that I think I somehow accidentally fired that trigger or the mechanism that is responsible for this synchronization.
Do you know how to trigger that kind of synchronization and how to access the information about "the current context"?
p.s. Rebuilding the project did not solve the problem
I downloaded the sample code from
http://www.cnblogs.com/Files/sheva/RibbonStyle2.zip
I added three key files into a new project without changing the files. They are NativeMethods.cs, OfficeWindow.cs, and Generic.xaml.
I then use my new WFP form (MainWindow.xaml) to inherit from OfficeWindow.
<cc:OfficeWindow
x:Class="WpfApplication1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:cc="clr-namespace:RibbonStyle"
ResizeMode="CanResizeWithGrip"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Window.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="/WpfApplication1;component/Generic.xaml" />
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
</Grid>
</cc:OfficeWindow>
and code behind MainWindow.xaml.cs
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Data;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Navigation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
using RibbonStyle;
namespace WpfApplication1
{
public partial class MainWindow : OfficeWindow
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
}
}
The design view looks good. It shows ribbon style title bar as expected. However when I run it in the debugger it shows a classic title bar without and exceptions.
Note that if you download the original sample code from
http://www.cnblogs.com/Files/sheva/RibbonStyle2.zip
and run it directly it works.
Can anyone try my way and tell me what I have missed?
Thanks,
i have checked this example ..i think it is working fine here is the screeschot..
if thr is problem in its styling comment below..
I know there is information about this on the internet and I've searched for it. But I'm still getting the error, can anyone point out to me what I'm doing wrong?

As you can see I'm adding
xmlns:we="clr-namespace:ProgramManagementV2.screens"
to the user control xml but I'm still getting the error:
Partial declarations of 'ProgramManagementV2.screens.MainUserControl' must not specify different base classes
Can anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong?
By using <UserControl ... you claim the base-class to be UserControl, you would need to change it to
<we:AScreenUserControl x:Class="ProgramManagementV2.screens.MainUserControl" ...
However UserControls only allow one level of inheritance i think, at least if the AScreenUserControl has a XAML this surely will not work.
Just do this:
<we:AScreenUserControl x:Class="ProgramManagementV2.screens.MainUserControl"
xmlns:we="clr-namespace:ProgramManagementV2.screens"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
