Can't get styling to work
posted

I'm trying to use a WebDropDown control on a form but can't get anything but a small textbox and a red X. 

I'm using VS2008 and NetAdvantage 9.1 under Vista32.  This machine originally had 8.3 installed and 9.1 installed later.

From what I understand, when I dropped the control on the form, I should have been asked about copying the stylesheet into the project.  I did not get that question.  I've manually created an ig_res folder in my project and copied the default stylesheets and image folder to that folder.  No change.  I've tried specifying the path in the control as <ig:WebDropDown ID="WebDropDown1" EnableAppStyling="true" StyleSetName="Default" StyleSetPath="~/ig_res" runat="server" Width="200px">, no change.  I've tried adding a <infragistics.web enableAppStyling="true" styleSetName="Default" styleSetPath="~/ig_res/" /> line in web.config but no one ever specifies which section to put it in and I get an error everyplace I try.  I've looked for the Application Styling Configuration Tool but it's not listed under Tools.  I've tried using the Add In Manager to add it but I get "The Add-in 'Application Styling Configuration Dialog' failed to load or caused an exception...Error Message: <Unknown Error>...Error number: 8013150a".

I'm confident the control would work if I could only get the styling to work but I just don't know what else to try.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello Frank,

    This sounds like installation gone wrong...
    In the web.config there should be an entry in the :

    type="System.Configuration.SingleTagSectionHandler,System,
    Version=1.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"/>

    and then anywhere after :


    What happens when you run it?
