Hi all
When I try to bind WPF application with
<ig:ThemeManager.Theme> <ig:Office2013Theme StyleMicrosoftControls="True" /></ig:ThemeManager.Theme>
I've got the exception(look at attached pic). The main xaml looks like
<Window x:Class="Backup.MainWindow" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:ignore="http://www.ignore.com" xmlns:ig="http://schemas.infragistics.com/xaml" mc:Ignorable="d ignore" Height="300" Width="300" Title="Backup V1.0" WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" ResizeMode="NoResize" WindowStyle="None" DataContext="{Binding Main, Source={StaticResource Locator}}"> <Window.Resources> </Window.Resources> <ig:ThemeManager.Theme> <ig:Office2013Theme StyleMicrosoftControls="True" /> </ig:ThemeManager.Theme> <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot"> <Button Content="Terst" Height="30" Width="30"></Button> </Grid></Window>
What am I doing wrong?
THanks
I am also getting exceptions when using the ThemeManager.
As soon as I add
<ig:ThemeManager.Theme> <ig:IgTheme /></ig:ThemeManager.Theme>
to my XAML, they start popping up and its kinda annoying.
A first chance exception of type 'System.Xaml.XamlObjectWriterException' occurred in System.Xaml.dllA first chance exception of type 'System.NotSupportedException' occurred in PresentationFramework.dll[repeated many times]

I configured the debugger to stop on XamlObjectWriterException so I could see why. The first exception seems to be related to something that has Background setter but there is no background dependency property on that type. No details are given as to what exactly is causing the error. Moving onto the next few occurrences and we see other things like BorderBrush and BorderThickness pop up as being setters on something that has no corresponding dependency property. Seems to me like something fishy is going on inside that DLL that needs to be looked at
In order to eliminate the exceptions, I tried manually adding add of the resource references from the IG theme into my shared styles dictionary. Once I do this and remove the XAML above, the exceptions stop! Ok, something is up.

Infragistics, please look into this further as I don't think the exceptions should be getting thrown, so something is amiss. I don't get any exceptions when manually including the theme resources. On an odd but seemingly related note, I know I couldn't include IG.xamGauges.xaml because it couldn't find certain resources despite having included all of the IG dlls in my project. I don't use it so it doesn't matter much to me right now, but I think its worth mentioning.
As a workaround, try manually including all of the theme resources like I did.
Hi Kristopher,
I've create a case on your behalf as well the case ID is - CAS-159626-G4Q4G0. Your case is also linked to the same development issue 204389.
You can view the status of all development issues connected to this case from the "Development Issues" tab, when viewing this case on the "My Support Requests" page of our website.
I get the same exceptions when using ThemeManager. Please create a support case on my behalf so I can receive updates on development issue 204389. Is this scheduled to be fixed in the Dec 11 service release? It is hindering us from using a desired solution with themes in our production application.
Hi Greg,
I've create a case on your behalf as well the case ID is - CAS-166542--Q1H5B. I've linked it to the development issue 204389 as requested.
We're currently looking at it and will make our best to get it fixed in the upcoming December SR.
Hello,
We have shipped out a new service release where the issue is resolved. I'd be glad to find out if you had tested it out and if it had met your requirements.
You can download the Service Releases by logging to our web site and going to Keys and Downloads page.
