Using Microsoft Surface controls in Expression Blend


This seems like it should be a simple thing, but I can't work it out; how do I get Microsoft Surface controls into Expression Blend so I can retemplate them? I have the surface SDK DLLs as references in a new Expression Blend WPF project, but the controls are not available in the 'Assets' dialog, nor can they be added to the XAML directly...

Cheers, rJ


Solution

  • I had another look this morning, and I realised my problem is likely that I am using Surface 2.0 controls - built with .NET 4.0 - and trying to load them into Expression Blend 3, which seems to be on .NET 3.5. I guess that's my problem!
