Hi, i download the wpf controls 2012v1 trial and install it. But when i open visual studio 2008, and create a new wpf project, in the tool box i do not have the xam chart control.
How i can add this control to visual studio 2008??
is compatible visual studio 2008 with wpf 2012 data visualization controls??
Tanks
Hello,
In previos versions(before 12.1) the conreols were separated in DV and LoB packs and the DV pack, where the XamDataChart is placed, is targetting .Net 4 only and now wneh the two packs are combined it is still the same, and since the VS 2008 supports only .Net 3 and earlier versions, you are not able to use the XamDatChart with it.
Hope this helps you.
thanks for the replyBut how I can add this component to the toolbar? In visual studio 2008 y try to select this component in the WPF component, and the .Net framework component but i can´t find this.
The control that replaced XamChart is XamDataChart, which is a cross - platform control and can be used both on SL and WPF.
Tank, for your answer, but which is another control that replaced the XamChart??. that i can use in visual studio 2008??
Thank you for your post. I have been looking into it and I can say the XamChart is not in the Toolbox, because it is a retired control and the assembly for it is not installed in the GAC from where are taken the other controls for the Toolbox, this also restricts you from adding it manually in the Toolbox. Although you can still add reference to it and use the control.
