Hi I have a simple user control with some Blend generated design time data:
<UserControl x:Class="CustomerProfile.View.CustomerProfile"
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"
xmlns:vm="clr-namespace:CustomerProfile.ViewModel"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="400" d:DesignWidth="400">
<Grid Margin="8" d:DataContext="{d:DesignData /SampleData/CustomerProfileViewModelSampleData.xaml}">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition />
<ColumnDefinition />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="25" />
<RowDefinition />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Label Content="Surname" />
<TextBox Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding Account.Surname}" />
</Grid>
This is all good, and when I open the user control in Blend or Cider I see the generated data.
However, I am using the UserControl in a Window, like this:
<Window x:Class="Demo.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:cp="clr-namespace:CustomerProfile.View;assembly=CustomerProfile"
Title="Demo" Height="350" Width="525">
<Grid>
<cp:CustomerProfile />
</Grid>
When I open this Window in Blend or Cider I do NOT see the design time data in the User Control.
Is there any way around this? Am I going about things the wrong way?
Thanks in advance...
