Blend for Visual Studio 11: no project types


I seem to be having issues with Blend.

When I launch the application I don't seem to have support for XAML:

No XAML :(

Anybody who ran in this issue?

I've tried adding 'VisualStudioVersion' = '11.0' to the System Environment variables, but no luck :(

I have Windows 7 x64 SP1 (legal!).


Solution

  • The Blend for Visual Studio 11 Beta only supports Metro style applications (both XAML and HTML). These projects can only be designed on Windows 8.
