How do I open a wpf window from word using C#?

Question

I am working on a word (2010) addin project. In the ribbon, I have a settings button.

If I click on the settings button, it should open a wpf window (which will have the settings related UI).

How do I open a wpf window from word using C#?

Answer 1

var window = new System.Windows.Window();
window.Content = new System.Windows.Controls.Button { Content = "Click me!" };
window.Show();

You need to reference the following assemblies:

• PresentationCore.dll
• PresentationFramework.dll
• WindowsBase.dll
